Horrible is very accurate for his game. You can say that some/most (depending on your outlook) of that is because of the ankle, which is certainly true, but it doesn't mean the game wasn't horrible. He was really, really bad.

No, he wasn't horrible. It was a mediocre game (for him) but he was not horrible, he was in some Atlanta players' faces on defense forcing them to make bad shots and turn the ball over. He was just taking way too many bad shots.

And his ankle problems aren't helping. He normally tries to push through the paint and draw contact but I haven't seen him do that in 2 games.

I would have loved to have you commenting on some of the Jordan performances back in the day...

Jordan never came close to averaging the number of threes Rose averaged a game this year. He realized his limitations, and instead got to the line way more on a regular basis.

The only guy who had a even worse game than Boozer today was Josh Smith.

 

Oh my god he is bad...

 

If it wasn't for Boozer giving him some lollipop blocks, he would have been utterly useless today.

Carla Boozer played like a b**** today... I've got half a mind to meet her in the locker room and f*** her to see if that helps.

Korver may not be a great defender buy nobody can say he doesn't work hard on D.

No, he works hard at all aspects of the game. He's just a bit of a spazz.

But Jordan had plenty of performances worse than Rose's today and not many people were calling them horrible.

 

I am perfectly willing to accept Rose's performance today as "disappointing," or as Lost said, "mediocre." Horrible, it was not.

He's mentally wrecked at this point. I blame this on Kwame Brown.

I'd say it was bad. .44 TS% and 8 turnovers. He shot similarly in game 1 minus the 8 turnovers.

 

I would call his game 1 performance mediocre though.

And Noah + Deng were nails tonight. Bulls might have lost without those two contributing the way they did. Double doubles for both. Deng hit a couple of big shots on back to back possessions to seal this game basically. Noah saved Rose and Boozer a couple of times with big put backs. With Rose struggling, the Bulls need these two to bring it for the rest of the series.

I mean, I know you're in the past against Josh Smith, but really now. When you have the ball and you get to the rim first you need to finish, I don't care if you're playing against Dwight Howard. He was just getting everything slapped away without a fight.

Boozer? He does that every time he gets the ball ripped out of his hands or gets rejected (sometimes he does it BEFORE actually getting rejected)

Boozer has the foulest mouth of any player I've ever heard. lol.

 

"GIMME THAT s***"

"GOD DAMMIT"

"WHAT THE f***"

I wish his yelling was effective.

You're just not going to convince me that 25/10/6 in the postseason is "really, really bad."

I don't. How about he keeps his mouth shut when he grabs an uncontested rebound and actually contributes. I hate literally everything about Boozer.

Normally it wouldn't be, but when it comes with more shots than points, including another 8 3PA night, and eight turnovers, I'm not going to be convinced that it was a good game.

 

Also, directed at FOP, I think it was already pointed out how flawed a stat +/- is, so citing that as a reason he was good is kind of absurd.

 

This really isn't worth arguing about though, so I'll shut up.

This sort of mentality would make the filibuster a better place

He was not real bad. Real bad is scoring 5 points on awful shooting with no assist, no rebounds, etc. Guy put up points, assists, and shot a decent enough percentage. He just took a lot of bad 3's and had some stupid TO's.

Dude, efficientness wins ballgames, ask my boy CP3, youve probably heard of him

37% on 27 shots is not decent enough. He had a bad game offensively but the Bulls were tremendous defensively so it didn't matter.
