QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 09:55 PM) Joe Johnson is horrifically overpaid and awful. Why do Reggie and Charles keep praising him? And Bosh hits a lucky shot to tie it.

Either the acoustics at Phillips Arena suck, or the Atlanta crowd sucks. I'll go with both. Bosh pulling a Lebron in the 4th.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 09:42 PM) So, can Assembly Hall devour 3 top 13 teams in 26 days? Even as a Michigan fan, I can admit that this Wolverine team is BARELY a top 25 team. No way #13.

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 08:28 PM) To be fair, only maybe a couple dozen students maybe go the games...and a couple hundred actual fans. Let us enjoy an actual BE win, no matter how top-heavy or watered-down it may be. They come only once, hopefully more than twice this year. This program desperately needs a decent win, and then string of decent games, to build on... AGreed. Who cares if students storm the floor or not. Let them have their fun. Jesus, this argument is old.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 06:39 PM) Does anyone else here share the opinion Melancholia was one of the top 5 movies of the year and actually "life-affirming" rather than depressing? I'd be interested in how you think it is life-affirming outside of the chance you can get railed by a hot blonde in the 18th hole bunker.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 02:38 PM) Cousins 1 Westfall 0 ChiTribSports ChiTribSports Westphal out as Sacramento Kings coach Never liked that guy as a coach. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad it didn't happen, but no reason that 93 Suns team shouldn't have won the title. They were the best in the NBA all year. I honestly didn't think the Bulls were going to win that series but you could tell he was being outcoached after losing Game 1 and 2 AT HOME.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jan 5, 2012 -> 03:47 PM) In the past 8 seasons, the Bears have won 55% of their games, three division titles, and one conference title, all while having a terrible GM and subpar coaches. They did it all with players who were overvalued in the draft, yet magically taught themselves to become outstanding players. Makes no sense. Not a high bar but Lovie is easily the best coach we have had since Ditka and the only guy I would think of replacing him with is Cowher. Do people forget Wanny and Jauron? Each coach had like 1 good season and nothing else. Lovie consistently has this team competing. He makes in game decisions that make you shake your head like EVERY coach. Lovie has had 3 seasons under .500 and two of them were at 7-9.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 4, 2012 -> 07:29 PM) I just don't understand how a team full of D1 talent cannot get the ball to the post. They refuse to throw the ball in, despite Leonard's clear size advantage. If I were Weber I would threaten the bench if Leonard doesn't get a touch in the post on EACH possession. Bertrand plays like he hates Leonard.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 4, 2012 -> 08:10 AM) Omer had a fine game, but until he learns to watch his backside teams are going to continue to alley-oop on his ass at will. I could be wrong but actually though Taj was getting ooped on. Asik has hands of stone and no excuse to miss that put back in the 4th. Wish he would just grab, set, dunk.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 3, 2012 -> 11:39 AM) Dude, Lovie wasn't canned, so that choice is obvious. Also, anything McCaskey. I'd love it if they hired McKenzie. I am a Lovie supporter but if the team underachieves next year, he will have to take the blame. This stuff happens when you lose both your #1 QB and #1 RB. I thought Barber was a fine back up until the Denver game. They didn't know what Hanie was yet and you know if they didn't bring him back as the back up, fans over the city would have been pissed because Chicago has always been obsessed with back up QBs.

Keep Miami in half court and take away fast breaks like Atlanta did and you can beat them.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Jan 3, 2012 -> 02:03 AM) I've decided that Jericho return was was brilliant. I hope he does the exact same thing next week. Possibly a third if the fans still are not booing him hard enough. Agreed. New twist on how to bring him back since the Save Us reveal was predictable and kinda flat.
