QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 4, 2012 -> 02:10 PM) It was only called because it was following a previous set of double-T's and the Refs are trying to get control back. That's their discretion, that call alone would have been crap but when it happened is important. Ah ok, that makes sense, I just tuned in so I missed that other stuff.

Whatever happened to Amar'e, he has looked just awful most of this season.

Shumpert throws down a dunk like Wade and LBJ always do and he get's T'd up.

QUOTE (Felix @ Mar 3, 2012 -> 09:19 PM) It's pretty obvious you haven't read any posts of mine about Rubio. I'm working on it. There are better places to actually talk basketball, as opposed to just the Bulls. I'm slowly weaning myself off of this s***hole. I'm gonna really miss those KLove updates.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Mar 3, 2012 -> 08:43 PM) Some people don't like J4L because he likes talking in absolutes and has an unpopular opinion. And Felix...well he just trolls for entertainment. My problem with Felix is that he isn't consistent, he took a crap on Rose last year for being inefficient (Bulls kept winning), yet not a peep on Rubio's horrendous shooting (like we're not gonna notice)...but anyway, it's his opinion and he's entitled to one.

QUOTE (Boogua @ Mar 3, 2012 -> 08:39 PM) I actually really like this thread. It tends to go off topic quite a bit, but some of the topics are interesting (like the Jordan in today's era thing). I feel bad for posters like Felix and J4L because they voice their opinions pretty strongly and those opinions aren't popular around here. I think a problem with J4L is that he doesn't back up his opinions (some of which are already really hard to believe) with concrete evidence. Felix does a pretty good job with that usually. By the way, as someone who lurks for the most part (and have been doing so for many years), I think it was clear as day that posters are just joking around with J4L. I don't think SS2k5s post was malicious at all. Someone who gets it^ Some of you take this way too serious, it's a goofy internet messege forum for f***'s sake, don't like it, move on, don't complain about how this thread sucks and keep reading/posting, wtf is that? I hate/hated Sex in the City, therefore I avoid watching it, common sense... I like this thread because it's unpredictable, funny and interesting...I'm not a hypocrite. And sometimes, very rarely, lol, you learn something new. /rant

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 2, 2012 -> 07:48 PM) Silence Snookie haters. That girl is all that. Plus she wakes up drinkin'. I love it. I lol'd J4L, I hope for your sake you don't drink nearly as much as you claim here or else you are headed straight for Mickey Mantle territory.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 2, 2012 -> 08:28 AM) I didn't say the guy averaged 10 and 6. He had some good games. I can remember a 20/20 game one of those years. But the guy overall struggled against the length and athleticism of that Laker front-court. He rarely shot a good percentage and he was perpetually turning the ball over and in constant foul trouble. And scoring 25 one game doesn't mean as much when Gasol is getting 30 on the other end. Of course you can't lay it all on one guy for losing to the same team three years straight. But he was a big part of it. Ask Williamtell. DWill has to take a lot of the blame too, after all, they were his team.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 1, 2012 -> 02:15 PM) I think Joakim Noah being 100% is much more important than f***ing Rip Hamilton. .............yes.............

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 1, 2012 -> 09:51 AM) I think Ricky Rubio's goal is to shoot less than 30% on the season. Yikes. He makes Rondo look like Ray Allen, he's horrible.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 1, 2012 -> 08:23 AM) Who? I must see this post and ridicule said person. This I've never seen anyone here say Noah=Howard, much less better than him. Only argument I've heard is them being reluctant to break up the team for a doofus that has no interest playing for Chicago. Getting back to the original point, is Noah a top center? You bet your ass he is.

QUOTE (Felix @ Feb 29, 2012 -> 09:50 PM) Fair enough. Misread the "a" as "the", which clearly wasn't the case. Although I think posting the numbers between the two still stands, since there are a few people that come to this thread that think Noah is better than Dwight (or at least on the same level, which is farrrr from the case). yeah right...

I almost had a heart attack, looks like DRose will be alright.

QUOTE (Felix @ Feb 29, 2012 -> 05:44 PM) This thread is good for at least one two/three page derail a day. It's awful. I don't understand the fact that you think this thread sucks, yet you come here a lot. Not trying to start anything with you but you complain about the quality of content yet keep coming back? There are threads here at ST I really don't care for therefore I avoid them, I don't go in them and complain how terrible they are...I don't get it.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 29, 2012 -> 02:31 PM) Thank you for your honesty. No prob, I just want to add that I was a Bulls fan as a little kid back when Reggie Theus was the man in the early 80's...yeah, I'm getting up there in age

J4L is right about something, the Bulls were hugely popular worldwide while they were killing and then nobody but the most hardcore fans followed them after MJ, Pip, Rodman and Jackson left. I was pissed at the way the Bulls organization broke up that team and Krause was eager to rebuild starting with Floyd (ugh)...I honestly ignored them until the Kirk, Ben Gordon, Nocioni era out of anger and because they sucked.

QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Feb 29, 2012 -> 12:45 PM) This, and your constant jabs at the team makes me question how much you follow the team, and how loyal of a a fan you are. I sometimes think he was a bigger fan of Jordan than an actual Bulls fan.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 28, 2012 -> 04:12 PM) BULLS VS THE VAUNTED HORNETS TONIGHT I AM EXCITE FOR ANOTHER 30 POINT LEAD IN THE SECOND QUARTER GO BULLS JIZZ I'm actually excited to see this Gustavo Ayon cat, he's Mexican, just like me!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 28, 2012 -> 11:38 AM) Teddy Greenstein ‏ @TeddyGreenstein Thibs says Rip is a gametime decision: "He looks great in practice, but there’s a huge difference between the game and practice." #bulls Don't want to see Rip until he is positively 100% healthy.

I know Balta already posted the link but this is a very interesting read...yes it's a meaningless game but how could you not want to take the last shot?

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 27, 2012 -> 09:30 AM) I love that the All-Star Game is going to mess with LeBron's head even further. The only thing that can stop the Heat this year is LeBron. This is where a year of college ball would have helped him. He'd have had to fall in line with a respected coach on a huge stage. Instead, he goes straight from ESPN-televised high school games where he gets phellated relentlessly to an awful Cavs team where he got phellated relentelessly and everyone considered him the savior. LBJ has had everything handed to him his entire life. Yes, he's an amazing talent and yes he's a monster in the weight room. I don't want to minimalize the work he has put in to become the best pure talent in NBA history. However, his mind is weak. That might be something that never gets turned around... hell, even Carmelo Anthony, in the midst of his worst stretch ever, was giving LBJ s*** about not wanting that shot. At some point we got to feel bad for LBJ... No, not really, ha! With all the media now relentlessly focusing on LBJ's percieved lack of clutchness, no one is gonna give a cra p what LBJ does until he plays big in the finals moments of the Finals, you know that's gonna be messing with his pysche, lol.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 27, 2012 -> 09:06 AM) http://dailyherald.com/article/20120226/sports/702269784/ I know this is redundant now. But who cares. Imrem nailed it. Do it. ...and not a single f*** was given that day since it's not going to happen.

QUOTE (Felix @ Feb 26, 2012 -> 05:57 PM) I agree. What's Rose doing there? hater!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 26, 2012 -> 03:22 PM) Somebody in that group just doesn't belong. I'm just gonna pretend I didn't see this post...

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Feb 24, 2012 -> 05:12 PM) I doubt you watched Grossman play more than 1 game in College, so please just stick to the NBA. Because your argument is lunacy, no one thought Grossman was going to be any good, thats why after his Sophomore year he was projected to be a top 10 pick and after his Junior year he was drafted in the first round. But yes, no one thought a player with a solid 1st round grade would be any good. Here is the SI rating from 2003: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/...ayers/7323.html Grade: 4.15 4.99 to 4.10 -- Quality Prospect -- Someone that consistently gives good performances. Occasional Pro-Bowl appearances. This is why Grossman is a bust. Lin can never be a bust, he wasnt drafted. Just being a back up PG would be a major accomplishment when you take into consideration he wasn't even offered a scholarship and went undrafted.
