QUOTE (qwerty @ Mar 22, 2011 -> 11:15 PM) He left chicago for vegas to rid himself of his demons... sin city seems like one of the last places to go... no? Since i don't know the full details, he very well could have just been visiting. Otherwise, i question his sincerity to getting clean. His father lived there. I was actually asking myself the same thing before I found out about his dad living in Vegas. And he wasn't a drug addict when I said he left Chicago to get out of trouble. But the dude (well I won't say without a doubt, but pretty much all of us believe this) was a steroid user. He pushed himself to the limit on everything. He was also an emotional wreck when it came to women. I have my own conclusions, but I can't turn back time to go talk some sense into him. (again) Still very sad to hear though. Felt like yesterday we were playing basketball and video games as 10-12 year old kids.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 12:17 AM) That sucks, sorry to hear that dude Thanks alot Keith. Was way too young to go. Just heard he had an overdose on pills (I believe pain pills). Crazy thing was, he left Chicago to get out of trouble for a while.

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Mar 22, 2011 -> 02:20 AM) We've got a nice little run going, and we play only 5 teams above .500 in the East the rest of the way (including NYK twice). 3rd seed still possible if the Heat go cold towards the end. It's pretty much a 2 horse race for MVP between Howard and Rose. I would say if the Bulls win against Boston comming up in early April, that should seal it for Rose. Howard has the better numbers. Rose has the better team record.

Juan Pierre will have a down year defensively. As far as wacky, I'll say Carlos Quentin actually stays healthy for the entire year and has the GW hit to win the pennant.

One of my good friends, who I knew since elementary school, passed away in Vegas earlier today. Just got the text not too long ago.

Hopefully Sharp's injury isn't too serious. Never like knee to knee hits.

Happy B-Day bro.

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Mar 18, 2011 -> 02:13 AM) I'd counter this by saying he's probably still in the bottom third of starting PG's in the league when it comes to 1 on 1 defense. Actually that is what he is probably best at this season. He struggles more on weak-side help and in the pick and roll game.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 17, 2011 -> 10:20 PM) Ugh, Detroit won, Calgary is winning, Nashville scored late to get to OT and win, Dallas obviously won. Worst possible outcomes and Bolland/Campbell are hurt. At least the Kings lost. Probably the only thing that went the Hawks way.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Mar 14, 2011 -> 12:44 AM) Not sure if this was posted, but it's a great read no matter what. Peavy had a hell of an offseason. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/spring2011/n...tory?id=6182437 I will personally thank you for giving me my new avatar.

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Mar 12, 2011 -> 02:23 PM) Gartrell>Terrero...no comparison. Terrero had better overall tools (much better prospect during his time). But I think Gartrell will have a better career. (which isn't saying much as I think he'll be a 4th/5th OF/LHP smasher at best)

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 10, 2011 -> 10:08 PM) That said, at his salary, I'm glad he's gone. Not to mention his consistent dribbling out the clock and average court vision. But then again, I was never a fan of his.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 9, 2011 -> 09:56 PM) But I don't know if that St. Louis shootout goal should have counted. The puck has to keep moving forward and he definitely stopped and backed it up before he shot. That goal was still sick though.

Happy B-Day guys.

Outstanding.

MySpace.. Facebook... etc.. pretty much any internet faze that will die out in the not too distant future. Oh, and Bill Simmons.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Mar 3, 2011 -> 10:52 PM) Heat aren't ready for primeitme. Well yea that and teams above .500.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 2, 2011 -> 09:00 PM) Frolik must have soiled himself after finally scoring after a 2+ month drought. I like him alot. Dude has sick hands.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Feb 28, 2011 -> 12:12 AM) Brewer can't shoot 3's or spread the floor. He does everything else you said pretty well. Butler's not a much better defender than Korver and isn't as good offensively. I don't see a huge point in the acquisition. But if it means less Bogans, it's alright with me. IMO, the Bulls need another 15 PER player (like Rip or Prince) who can shoot the 3 and play D. Butler isn't that. Well according to that article, he wants to sign with the Bulls, not vice versa. We'll see what happens there, but I agree a guy like Rip (though he's more of a screen guy like Deng, but can hit the open 3 at times) would be a nice addition. (especially for his free throw shooting which is one of the Bulls biggest weakness) Well... I should say.. a motivated Rip.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Feb 27, 2011 -> 07:14 PM) Another Ozzie nickname...lol And it's sad that Ozzie comes up with better nicknames than JoeCoolMan24 just pronouncing players' names wrong. No offense Joe.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Feb 27, 2011 -> 09:57 PM) Butler's a 10-11 PER guy. Very meh. If this means he'll start over Bogans, I guess it would be alright. This bulls team doesn't need another 18-20+ PER guy (we would all like one of course, but thats just not going to happen). As long as he has the ability to spread the floor, handle the rock in a half court set for teams not to double team Rose and play decent defense from the 2 (not to mention add some length/athleticism for Rose) he'll be fine in this offense.

Annnnnnd my best friend is doin the deed as we speak...; with a fatter, uglier chick than I did. Oh well. Da,mn they are goin at it.

Looks like Seabrook deal is done. 5 yrs. 29 mil.

Late to the party. Happy belated Mark.

Hide yo kids, hide yo wife, and hide yo husband cuz Ace is getting drunk happy n rapin everybody out here!!
