Still think that Asik is a huge trade piece?

He's still most certainly valuable.

Man it'd be nice if Taj could get that jumpshot back

He's still most certainly valuable.

 

How? Because he is tall? He has no above average skills.

Because there aren't very many good big men in the league at all. By default, if you're serviceable, you're valuable.

76ers just got away with 3 straight pushes in the back.

Get korver in there if they're going to double Rose every time

Sloppy sloppy...

For f***s sake Bulls.

Iggy on Rose is a problem. God I wish we had a 2nd legit scorer.

Nice shot Igoudala.

I always get so nervous and frustrated and angry, and then Derrick Rose uplifts my spirits.

Not fair.

It's MVP time, Funk!

He is something.

Yes.

What has happened to Taj and Omer?

Dammit.

 

Noah and Gibson better be running laps after this game.

both noah and gibson had opportunities to get the ball out of their hands in those spots...had to get it to korver or rose

How? Because he is tall? He has no above average skills.

 

...defense?

Imagine how many more rebounds Omer Asik could get if he, you know, jumped.

 

Asik looks heavier this year than last year, and his agility seems to have been negatively impacted. Rose's layup in the 3rd when he flew by Elton Brand was just special.

It's promising to me that the Bulls are gutting out these W's and still playing well enough to win without having peaked. At the same time, you'd like to start seeing them play more complete 48 minute games.

You get DRose a legit 2nd scorer and watch out...the kid is so f***ing amazing.

Not sure where this was reported, but it's not true. Magic had 2 games with at least 15/15/15 while Larry Bird had another. Doesn't make it any less impressive, but still. I'd also be shocked if Oscar Robertson didn't have more than a few, considering he averaged 30.8 pts, 12.5 rebounds and 11.4 assists per game in '61-62.

 

They probably missed fineprint that was something like *since 2000, or something like that

 

Espn has said a few variations of that stat tonite. It started off as "it has only been done 3 times in history, twice by Jason Kidd, and one tonite by Rondo", then in the pregame they said he was the third player to do it.

 

It doesn't surprise me that it isn't right and they can't find the correct answer.

ESPN's bottom line just said he's the third ever player with a 15-15-20 triple double (joining the Big O and Wilt). That sounds more accurate.

They really need to start upping Rip Hamilton's minutes and keeping him on the court with the starters in crunch time late.

I really don't understand why every team just doesn't run 2 guys at Derricks every time he crosses half court...
