God, Duhon is a good passer. Bulls show nice ball movement and then Duhon drives and dishes to Curry for a beautiful two points. Now that was something to get excited about.

Polanco is a good player. I'm getting more and more into the idea of him and Kendall at the top of the lineup.

I'd love Peja here, but I think we'll have to wait until he becomes a free agent. Unless of course the Kings are way out of it and decide they'd like one of the Bulls younger players and a smaller contract to go with it (so the salaries even out).

The Bulls are looking good when they get Curry the ball. Curry is rebounding too, not just the easy rebounds but he's gotten some difficult ones.

Cause they all seem to hate each other or something. I'm as puzzled as you are though, because Webber is better then Vlade and they didn't have him much at all last year. Maybe Vlade was the cog that made all of them get along.

I was thinking maybe he was talking about Leiter but just didn't say the name. It couldn't be Floyd cause he isn't a free agent. Plus if I recall Floyd is from this area so I'm sure he'd welcome a move to Chicago. Problem is he has serious health issues, although he can play when he's healthy.

I was intrigued and appalled at the same time. I lived with it thinking about how Falk said he wouldn't have his players go to Chicago (Elton being one of them). I was more appalled when the Bulls traded Artest and when the morons signed Pippen instead of Posey.

That be a great offseason if the Sox didn't get Ortiz, but instead opted for someone else. I would be a fan of giving Leiter a 1yr 5 mill deal and maybe consider a 3 man booth with him joining DJ and Hawk if he were interested. Leiter has been good in the booth during the postseason, plus I think his leadership would be very valuable on the southside, although he isn't necessarily an innings guy (but the rest of the arms seem to be).

I wish we had Brad Miller instead. Krause knew talent, for whatever reason the coaching staff and players never gelled. Part of which the Bulls had Artest get hurt and in a sense some things didn't work out. Of course his Chandler for Brand deal was atrocious in hindsight.

Trust me that was the same feeling I had when I saw it scroll on ESPN News while waiting for Rob Neyer to come on. I was scared those news reports would be right (although in my mind I thought Kenny couldn't be that foolish).

IT was a good pass. At the same time, Curry was inside the paint and should of just taken it up strong. Twice he's done that tonight and not gotten the foul call though.

Burnitz may not be all that bad. He'd be in a good lineup and while he whiffs a whole lot he plays hard. Plus he'd provide a left handed bat. I've never been much of a fan, but in this lineup and out of the spotlight in a sense he could do some things.

And I've long agreed with your assesment on that

I love Luol Deng. I think he's a similar player to Carmelo Anthony. I've said it once before. Neither wow you when you watch a minute, but they both are able to play on the outside and inside, get boards, get tip backs and really help their teams. If you can't tell I've became a huge DENG fan. I'm also a huge Hinrich fan and like the way Curry/Chandler seem to be playing today and the last game.

Jermaine Dye. I heard this thing on the radio today and they were saying how Dye was playing pretty banged up during the 2nd half of the season (hand injury or something). I think someone else posted something on this as well. But he has good power and he was playing at a big time pitcher park (Oakland). I think he would do .275, 30, 90 in Chicago. Plus he plays a good RF. If the Sox trade Lee, then I expect Everett in left, Rowand in CF and Dye in RF. That would be a nice OF, imo. Although you have injury concerns in Everett and Dye, but I think Dye is back from his leg injury and should only get better this year.

Bulls need to BOX out. Way too many second shots. That and they aren't getting the loose balls.

Ben Gordon did a lousy job on that fast break. Deng was sprinting down and would of had an easy dunk. Luckily Deng got the put back after Gordon missed the layup. WOW as I say that Gordon throws a lob to Chandler who throws it down

Too bad he's made a few horrible passes that have led to Kings fast break points.

Well I have some bias, they are my team. I also called the Titan and Giant games and was pissed at the Washington/Detroit games cause the Bears should of won both of those games. As far as the Packer game, that one definately surprised me. But I try to call things like I see them and I see the Bears as an awesome defense and with Thomas Jones a better offense. Jones has the ability to make plays from anywhere on the field and that should really help Krenzel and the rest of the offense.

Rowand may not be the best bunter, but you ask him to bunt next year and tell him now and he'll work his ass of and turn into a good bunter. He may not walk as mcuh as you'd like but he's improving as a contact hitter (he still strikes out a little more then you'd like as a 2 hole hitter) but he has great power for a two hole spot and is a doubles machine. Plus he's a very good baserunner and as a whole would have a high OBP/AVERAGE, run production numbers from the 2 hole. As far as Willie goes, he has a good eye, good speed and a decent swing. He just lacks confidence and agressiveness at the plate (agressiveness in meaning actually ripping the ball) and I do think he can be pretty productive. Of cousre like I've said, Kendall would look really good too.

Nah, Kings are beatable and the Bulls are going to get their first win on this west coast road trip in like 5 years.

Personally I won't vote for a DH when Vladdy single-handedly carried his team in both the first month (although he had Guillens help in April) and then the final couple weeks of the season.

Haha, I have to watch this for class. My professor is recording it though so I can watch the Bulls game for now But Walmart really is a company that I think a lot of people will be studying for a long time in their masters programs, etc.

OMG, thats just hillarious Spiff. I can't stop laughing, haha.

Ya that would be great. Its too bad he lost his mom. Levine is a class reporter. I wish him the best.
