December 2, 200322 yr Under Skiles' first game in charge, looks like Blount, Robinson, Curry, Gill and Crawford r startin vs Milwaukee. Bucks up 3-0 on a 3 pointer by Redd.
December 2, 200322 yr Hinrich has schooled TJ Ford a couple of times already. Once Jamal stepped out on the baseline to foil a sweet ally-oop play. Overall the Bulls are having trouble scoring and are down 27-19 after 1 quarter.

December 2, 200322 yr I've been thinking for a bit that this deal will lead to the development of Eddie Robinson and it will turn Crawford into an absolute star. These two guys will help push the Bulls into the playoffs this year and will make the Bulls very fun to watch. And although the Bulls aren't winning the ball movement has been very nice and the plays are actually resulting in open guys. You can definately tell Skiles ability for X's and O's. At the same time I wonder what happens after they get a lot more practice.
December 2, 200322 yr May I add that no one looks selfish. Hinrich is playing good, shot is off, but hustle and some great passes and damn what a play by Hinrich to steal it, dish it to Erob who goes up for a dunk to drop the ball off to Curry who slams it down. Also a sweet alleoop to Curry from Crawford earlier in the game.

December 2, 200322 yr Author Well atleast they're not the Magic....... Ouch that hurts. Can sum1 please take Grant Hill or Juwan Howard off our hands.
December 2, 200322 yr Bulls pulling away in the 4th Q. Jerome Williams has been a HUGE spark plug, as has Antonio Davis.
December 2, 200322 yr Ouch that hurts. Can sum1 please take Grant Hill or Juwan Howard off our hands. LOL I didn't know we had any Magic fans here....I apologize ......I'm a Pacers fan, that's actually going well so far this season...The awesome thing is I don't think we've reached our potential just yet.....Carlisle's still learning the team and seeing what everyone can do. I think this could be the start of a great thing.
December 2, 200322 yr Jerome Williams (AKA Junk Yard Dawg) is going to be huge for us this season. Not judging by this game but he brings an excitement to this game, that this team needs. Comes in and puts up 13 pts and 10 rebs, without a practice? Also great game to Jamal,Eddy,and AD. Also liked Hinrich dishing out 8 assists tonight. ...Jamal has so much potential hopefully this is just the beginning of what we could see this season...
December 2, 200322 yr Trade was poor bottom line. obviously. this game was horrible. Crawford sux. JYD couldnt do anything but be a paper weight. this trade kicked ass! it brought energy and defense to this team.

I think this could be the start of a great thing. Just hav a look at my siggy, lol. Funny thing is though in the Atlantic division, there's no clear good team, so any1 but us can still win it. I'd ratha us just tank it, get da no. 1 pick, get a god damn center who can actually play D and we'll be much betta in 2004.
December 2, 200322 yr Great game...still one game though. I love the difference that Skiles brings as well as the intensity that Davis and Williams bring. You just see a difference out there both defensively and offensively. With the triangle guys had to force shots because they wanted to shoot. Cartwright didn't let them play free and Skiles has said we'll run plays for everyone, you want have to worry about getting your shots. Still...one game...although I'm liking what I saw and Hinrich was big tonight, imo and we all know I love JC. Let the Bulls get hot, get Chandler healthy and I'll be really stoked cause I love Chandler, Crawford and Hinrich. Erob is also one of my favs, then Curry.
December 2, 200322 yr I turned the TV on to the Bulls game tonight at work, and, from what I saw, the Bulls clearly dominated the second half of the game. Antonio Davis will bring leadership to this team; something Rose never brought to the table. Eddie Curry is going to have a hot next few games... But I'm looking for Jamal Crawford to completely bust it out in the near future...He's going to be a star! Great win over Milwaukee!!! It feels nice to beat a team whose fans are most likely Packer fans too!!!

I just hope they play this intense through out the whole season..usually when a team gets a new head coach..or a mildly-big trade happens...the team tends to play really hard..hussles alot.cause things are new and whatnot That kind of intensity tapers off after a week or so...This team can't let that happen..they gotta play this hard every single day if they are gonna be competitive..nevermind win games.. Lets just hope this is a sign of things to come..

Lets just hope this is a sign of things to come.. The plus side is that Williams and Davis are known to bring it all the time and thats definately gonna be a big difference maker compared to Rose, plus this offense flat keeps people involved. The triangle left people standing in corners and that takes you out of the offense. Plus BC was constantly bashing the shooters and stopping the team from running and having fun. You got to have fun and you have to play your style of basketball and the Bulls are a fast team, make cuts and get your shooters open and all your shooters are great passers and in turn they get the big men going which is exactly what happened. Plus Skiles can flat coach. His X's and O's are definately a HUGE improvement over BC's and he seems much more of a floor general as a coach, working on position and coaching the team, although I'm sure part of that has to do with the fact that the team is still learning the system. I do agree though, this could very easily be the honeymoon, I don't think it is because the Bulls have loads of talent.
December 2, 200322 yr Author The main thing now is that guys on the team actually know their roles, and play with an offence that actually makes use of the talents they hav. I think the Bulls r one of the most deepest teams in da league when they r all healthy, I mean a frontline rotation of Curry, Chandler, Davis and the Junkyard Dog is gonna do some serious damage in the East. If they were in the Atlantic, I'd think they'd win da division.
December 2, 200322 yr The odd thing is, Davis and Williams will likely be coming off the bench. Yet they can still start when needed too. I just love the versatility of this team. I'm not saying they will win it all, but they should be one of the better teams in the East...like top 4. I think this team will continue to get better and you'll see them in the playoffs...but there is probably some bias there and I still have to see the team play at this level, if not a higher level (cause there were still mistakes) for an extended period of time.
