April 2, 200521 yr The bulls have a .688 winning percentage which is the best since the new year. Let's get this winning streak to nine even though it's likely we will not get into double digits against the heat. Especially since curry will be out.
April 2, 200521 yr I have 2 tix for tonight but nobody else wants to go because of some college basketball game. Oh well, didn't pay for em anyway.
April 2, 200521 yr QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 2, 2005 -> 08:53 PM) Yay, one less Eddy lover to deal with tonight. I'm looking forward to this game. I wanna see Tyson dominate the boards again.
April 2, 200521 yr hey even the Eddy haters have to admit he was starting to look good up until his heart problem.

The Heat have lost to the Bobcats and a depleted Pacer team in the last week or so. I know they should be favored, but don't give them a guaranteed w just yet.

I know they should be favored, but don't give them a guaranteed w just yet. This is one of those games that I'd bet the farm on. Bob's cats have only won like three games on the road this year. Brevin Knight's assist totals over the last five games: 15, 15, 16, 10, 15 Emeka Okafor, Primo Brezec, Gerald Wallace, Brevin Knight, Jason Hart, etc. That ain't a bad Top 5 for an expansion team at only 50% of payroll capacity. Naturally, their bench is unspeakably bad. Bulls by 5.
April 2, 200521 yr I'm not an Eddy hater, but I'm not a fan of signing a 7-footer who gets 3 rebs per game to a 8 mil a year deal.

I get the feeling that Knight was just kinda making fun of him moreso than anything else.

April 2, 200521 yr The three rebounds was an estimate since the last time I has checked the stats, five is pretty damn close to three. :headshake I don't check the stats, I only watch the games and look at the "W"s. Chandler at 6-10 PPG 10-15 RPG is more valuable to me personally than Curry's 15-20 PPG and 4-7 RPG.
April 2, 200521 yr The three rebounds was an estimate since the last time I has checked the stats, five is pretty damn close to three. :headshake <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 5.4 is close to 3? Since when? 5.4 is almost twice as much as 3. Did you pass grammar school math? Edited April 2, 200521 yr by Jabroni
April 2, 200521 yr QUOTE(Jabroni @ Apr 2, 2005 -> 05:42 PM) 5.4 is close to 3? Since when? 5.4 is almost twice as much as 3. Closer to 3 than 10. The man is 7 FEET TALL kids. If I was 7 feet tall I could average 5 rebounds per game playing 35-40 minutes a game. I'm just saying that his production doesn't match his size.

Tyson is 7'1"... http://www.nba.com/bulls/roster/ And saying that you could average 5 rebounds per game if you were 7 feet tall is ridiculous. I'm betting you couldn't.
April 2, 200521 yr Why can't people just accept the fact the guy is not a great rebounder? In a perfect world he would average 10-12 a night. But for whatever reason he's not a good rebounder. I choose to look at the things he does do well rather than focus on the lack of boards. Eddy is only 22, so hopefully he'll learn to rebound better.

Actually if they mesaured them like they do internationally and like they do for the olympics ( with their shoes off) they would be shorter. I know for a fact jordan measured in at 6'4.
April 2, 200521 yr You talk like 5.4 is good when in reality it is f***ing horsehit. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I never said it was good, did I? I was just trying to be accurate. Curry's rebounding was a little bit better last season when he averaged 6.2 rebounds per game. His weight loss probably had a little something to do with it. But his effort probably has a bigger thing to do with it though. Actually if they mesaured them like they do internationally and like they do for the olympics ( with their shoes off) they would be shorter. I know for a fact jordan measured in at 6'4. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah, I've heard that. I think Charles Barkley was listed as 6'5" by the NBA but he is really only 6'4".
