When you get this excited over a hiring of a special assistant, it just means our off-season has been really boring.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Nov 30, 2011 -> 05:47 PM) Not necessarily. In Thibs' defensive system, SG and SF are interchangeable, so Granger could theoretically play the 2. But, if we were to obtain Granger, I'd see it as this package: Asik, Brewer, Bobcats pick/First and multiple 2nds, and Bogans (to make it in the cap). Now, the rumor is the Pacers want Rondo for Collison and Hibbert, so they might clear it out to make space for Rondo to be the star in a defensive lineup of Rondo-Brewer-George-Hansborough-Asik. The Celtics would flip Collison/Hibbert/Picks for Paul and try to sign Dwight with their remaining cap space. Then the Bulls have this starting five, Rose-Granger-Deng-Boozer-Noah. That's a good starting five, but Granger/Deng is a bit redundant. Now, one team has been interested in Deng in the past...the 76ers. A Deng for Iguodala swap could interest and benefit both teams, leaving us with... PG - Rose/Watson SG - Iguodala/Korver SF - Granger/Butler PF - Boozer/Gibson C - Noah/FA (Thomas?) The Bulls aren't trading Deng. Thibs would freak out.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 30, 2011 -> 02:07 PM) The newly engaged injured Bears QB speaks: Good thing the Bulls are playing this winter...

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 30, 2011 -> 05:24 PM) http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baske...0,1108002.story I mean honestly...this team is so close. Why not spend some money and put it over the top? Unlike last year's Sox team, this Bulls team has Derrick Rose. So there's like no way it crashes into the ground completely like Adam Dunn.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 30, 2011 -> 04:41 PM) Steve done made a mess of another thread. someone get a mop rumors i have read today Bulls interested in Battier, Butler, TJ Ford Also rumor that Bulls are trying to get Granger for Asik and pieces Haha yeah right. Granger would be really awesome for this team, but it would take Asik + Gibson + some high future draft picks for the Pacers to even pick up the phone. The Bulls really don't have the pieces to get a guy like Granger IMO (Deng, Noah, Boozer, and Rose aren't going anywhere).

QUOTE (iamshack @ Nov 27, 2011 -> 07:12 PM) No, they're not. Anyone who knows more than a little about football is acknowledging that the turnaround is due to their defense. That being said, there is something to not turning the ball over...and controlling the clock...and being able to make one or two big plays when they are most needed, that has made this defense have confidence in Tebow. When I mean people, I mean ESPN.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Nov 27, 2011 -> 06:50 PM) When are people going to start giving the Broncos defense some credit? They have played incredible football lately. The problem is that people are giving Tebow all the credit.

QUOTE (fathom @ Nov 27, 2011 -> 06:29 PM) What in the world was Hanie thinking about possibly throwing that ball instead of spiking it? Seriously, you're not tricking the defense and you're not going to get enough yards that way.

QUOTE (G&T @ Nov 27, 2011 -> 06:27 PM) The defense is guarding the sidelines. The middle is open. You're just taking what the defense is giving you then. You can't do that with a minute left and no timeouts.

That was some of the worst clock management I've ever seen. They threw it towards the sideline just once.

Wow Hanie, WTF are you doing?

What are they doing? Throw it towards the sidelines.

We're going to need another 81 yard reception.

Lechler's going to blast this one again.

There's still going to be a minute on the clock if they get a 3 and out.

I thought Graham had that ball.

Onside kick time.

Johnny Knox...holy s***.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 27, 2011 -> 06:07 PM) Lol or the three terrible interceptions. Managing the game would have worked. Hanie lost this one. That is partially Martz's fault. He should have limited Hanie more. He didn't.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Nov 27, 2011 -> 06:05 PM) That doesnt make sense Holdings after the line of scrimmage are always called at the spot of the foul.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 27, 2011 -> 06:05 PM) Man, we would have slaughtered this s*** team with Jay Cutler. Pretty much.

This game was decided in the first half when Martz decided to pass instead of run at the 7.

That's game. What horrible coverage.

Gould is money.

That was a helmet to helmet on Hanie.
