The Kings have three guys who are both awesome and incredibly flawed in Cousins, Gay, and Rondo. They always make for interesting theater.

 

 

The Kings need to keep winning. The Bulls get their 1st rounder if it's outside the top 10. Currently sitting in the 10th position.

After watching highlights from last night, I'm even more annoyed at Rose not getting calls. He gets HACKED half of the time he goes to the rim, and it's only called 20% of the time.

Regarding his technical tonight, Derrick Rose says he's never gotten to the line in his career as much as he deserves to.

This is how blatant the lack of calls has been on Rose; Rose even got a technical for complaining. And he gets about 1 every three years

Rose is really starting to get it back

He looked darn good in the paint. Now if only he could get some calls. I hope we start seeing him get some better lift on his jumper. I'd love him to find that mid range jumper he used to have (which was lethal).

Yeah...I was quite puzzled why he isn't getting the calls. I'd even think with all the injuries, refs would end up protecting him more.

His finishing is what is making me excited. He's had some nice moves to the rim earlier and was just getting stuffed. Now he's figuring out how to use his body for space.

Rose has never gotten star calls. He doesn't put on the acting show that other stars put on to get those calls either.

The crazy thing is he has always gotten fouled a LOT harder than the guys acting it out. I still vividly remember Dwight Howard knocking him out of the air

I mean, he need only look to his teammate Jimmy Butler for advice on how to make it look like you were fouled more effectively.

Watching LeBron is always a good education as well. The guy is built like an NFL tightend, but some of the littlest guys in the NBA can seemingly cause bodily harm with a reach in.

Rose has been fouled 6 times and has gotten 2 calls.

 

Regardless, kudos to the Bulls for making this an actually entertaining game despite the score.

I came on here to ask if anyone else thought the officiating was terrible. The Bulls didn't do themselves any favors by sleepwalking through the first quarter and a half though.

We would've lost anyway, but the refs were absolutely brutal.

 

*waits for someone to point out the free throw differential so I can refute*

Derrick Rose with a great 1st quarter

Our defense is dreadful.

No Beal, No Gortat, NO PROBLEM

 

ERRRRRRR GET BLOWN OUT LOLOL

The UnexpectaBULLS. At this point, maybe the ExpectaBULLS.

will be interesting what they do at the trade deadline

This team has no consistency from game to game.

If you didn't already have a skeptical view of refs, Mirotic was initially robbed of a 3 when he was a good foot behind the 3-point line. I went back a few times on my DVR to figure out what the hell happened and why it was called a 2. They finally went back to look at it at the end of the quarter (I think there was about 2:30 left in the quarter when he made the shot) and got it right. At least the NBA nailed it's replay system. IMO the best of any sport.

This team is infuriating to watch.

I've been struggling with the injury Rose has for years. It's not going to go away unless he stops jumping.
