Not sure how that's relevant (and sad if true) to overall league play this year.

 

The talk from the other day about money affecting players play overall in college vs pro levels.

This is perfect for a message board debate seeing as it will never happen, but #2 to me is clearly the best option. Deng somehow stays(seemingly impossible to me), Boozer comes off the books and is replaced by a superior player in Taj, and oh year, you have Dwight Howard at center.

 

Rose-Watson

Rip-Brewer

Deng-Turkoglu-Korver

Taj-FA??

Howard-Asik

 

 

I'd love for that free agent ?? to be Rasheed Wallace, there were talks of him wanting to play this season right?

 

Would Przybilla work at PF next to Asik?

 

 

No, LeBron could've broken his leg and he'd be crucified if he came into the season all out of shape. Michael and Scottie (Scottie twice) competed in the Olympics after winning a title and didn't use that as an excuse to come into the next season out of shape. I love Dirk. One of the 15 best players the game has ever seen, IMO. But he gets no play here.

 

truth.

I've always liked Sheed, even when he was a Piston, I wonder how much is left in the tank, could he give us at least a good 18 minutes per night?

He is a loose canon but I like his passion and we could use a 3pt shooting big.

j4l,

 

Jordan played his last Olympics at the age of 29.

 

Pippen played his last Olympics at the age of 31.

 

Dirk played at 34 and did not play on a "Dream Team" so he had to actually play hard every game.

 

So yes Pippen and Jordan did it when they were much younger, and Pippen after 96-97 only would play 1 season where he made 82 games. Jordan would never start a full season after he turned 34 (although he retired for a few years so hard to compare.)

 

You can be hard on Dirk, but at 34 most NBA players start to wear down, let alone if they play an extra set of games.

Bench Mob

Korver needs to keep taking that shot whenever he gets it.

Bulls playing well tonight. Knicks are awful.

Knicks are just basically abusing Boozer.

Helps when you can take four steps without traveling

 

I just dont understand why Taj doesnt get out there sooner. I assume now hell be there and the bulls will start to play better defense and build back the lead.

Butterfingers Boozer

Boozer leaving Bulls D out to dry

Hmm not really agreeing with these line up decisions.

Nobody contesting Melo shots. At least get a hand up.

Pushing the lead back but still dont like the Boozer/Amare match up. Thankfully Amare wants to show off his jump shot instead of just driving past Boozer every time.

Hmm not really agreeing with these line up decisions.

Bulls 6-0 spurt. Thibs > You. Ha

They pushed the lead despite the line up. Results dont always make it the best choice.

That actually makes little sense.

 

The next time Boozer helps on a screen, it will be the first time.

It makes perfect sense.

 

You can have a bad defense out there and it doesnt mean the offense will necessarily take advantage of it. Or you can have the best defensive possession and the offense can throw up a prayer 3 and it goes in.

 

Thats why just because they went on a 6-0 run doesnt mean that it was a smart move to keep in Boozer over Taj.

Noah couldn't be playing softer in the 4th quarter.

Oh DRose!

Noah has been playing with 4 fouls so he couldnt get his 5th early.

Ah damn Butler, playing good defense but still looks like a rookie on offense. A quick bounce pass to Boozer in the paint was 2 easy points, no white jerseys even knew he was there yet.

I know Rose is your star but you can't change your entire offense and just space the floor and have rose go to the basket triple teamed, if the Knicks are going to overplay him this much he has to be able to create easy buckets for the other guys
