I don't really care about rose anymore.

 

This team, despite all odds, has actually been entertaining this year (after Jan 1).

 

Nazr Muhammed was giving great minutes in the f***ing playoffs.

 

Joakim Noah, with two (basically) broken feet, is outhustling other teams big men (lopez rebounding not withstanding) all over the court.

 

f*** rose man, team with no hope is at least giving us some fun s*** to watch. You aren't gonna win it every year. I know most here wish Bulls tanked this year, but they didn't. And they are here in the playoffs. Might as well enjoy them giving the other teams hell, and the other teams fans hell, as they scream "HOW THE HELL IS A TEAM WITH KIRK HINRICH AT THE POINT AND NAZR MUHAMMED AT CENTER BEATING US"

I wouldn't go so far as to say I don't care about Rose anymore but I agree with your thinking that this team has been fun to watch, although sometimes very frustrating, too. Though opponents fans may not be screaming that, you know they have to be thinking it. At the beginning of the year I was hating Muhammed and thinking that the Bulls could replace him with ANYONE and be better off but man, he has been great down the stretch and especially last night.

Against a team like the Nets with a stud PG, are we arguably better off with Kirk out there than Derrick if Kirk is going to shut down Deron? Especially if Kirk can contribute 10-15 like he's done? In this series, Derrick would likely have to be averaging 25+ just to outscore Deron Williams.

 

No, because Derrick has a history of owning elite PGs or PGs compared to him.

F*ck Rose? Not yet.

 

As for the team - yes, it's one of my favoritist teams in all the land in the playoffs going into Brooklyn and winning. Game 1 was a travesty, Game 2 made me proud. It's an incredibly awkward situation to see the key to the team being a legitimate championship contender jumping up and down and super-duper excited about other injured players giving their all on the court.

I don't mean that rose can screw off, but I'm tired of the only thing we talk about being either pissing all over Rose or debating his comeback. He's not coming back this year.

 

Meanwhile, the team that is playing is giving their all to bring home some playoff wins. There was a 8 minute stretch in the 3rd yesterday where Brooklyn couldn't get a shot off. We were swarming and jumping all over any drive and pushing them to the corners and baselines and then swatting them. It was vicious D. I appreciate that effort. And I appreciate the coaching changes, and execution by the team.

 

We may not win this series, but as long as we don't lay down, I don't have a bad word to say about any of the players actually playing on that team right now.

Ah understood.

 

Great post. Love it.

As he should.

Don't know if anybody watched the Bucks/Heat game last night, but since when can you be assessed a technical and then whine and have it taken away? Not that the one free throw would have made a difference, but to me its still bulls***. For anybody who didn't see it, Lebron was jumping up and down and said something to the referee and was assessed a technical. They never shot the free throw and then after the commercial break, the Bucks announcers said apparently Lebron convinced the refs to not give him a technical.

I watched Curry and Thompson shoot the freakin lights out vs Nuggets.

I caught just a bit of that game as I was watching some Draft thing, but it just seems like Steph Curry moves at twice the speed of anyone else on the court with him. If (when) they can't build around him in Golden State, he is going to be a crazy good player in LA/Boston/Miami/New York/wherever else he would end up signing.

The 85-86 Bulls were 22 games under .500 and made the playoffs. What did Jordan do in game 2 of that opening series? Oh yea, dropped 63 on the Celtics. I bet a lot of people regret not watching that game just because they knew the Bulls didn't have a chance in the series.

every shot that Curry makes is a perfect splash. He is scary when he gets hot. He still needs to put on a few pounds but he is an amazing scorer

His ankle says no thank you to added weight.

Maybe I should rephrase, he needs to put on a bit more muscle.
