But the Lakers don't want Boozer the Loozer. We'll have to bring in a 3rd team to make this deal happen.

No, it's a groin issue. He was on his way to see the doctor about it when he was rear ended.

Hmm I wonder why the Bulls are able to win without Rose? Is it because they are amazing? Orrrr....

Bulls still have one of the easiest schedules in the league so far.

Bottom 5:
30. Raptors
29. Bulls
28. Knicks
27. Cavs
26. Pistons

Why don't you ask the Heat? The Bulls, sans DRose, beat them just last week despite Wade & James combining for over 70 points. BOOM.

Bulls are easily the best team in the league at the moment.

Are Bulls fans at all surprised to see the Clippers start well and fade as the season progresses?


(What are your thoughts on Vinny del Negro)

Vinny is a goner after the season if he doesn't get the Clips out of the first round (if they make it at all).

VDN is a terrible head coach. It doesn't help that the players on the team seem to care more about SportsCenter highlights than actually winning games.

Holy ****! What an ending to tonight's crazy game.

Just so my fellow Bulls brethren know, I gave up Texags for lent and thus have been unable to chime in over the past month or so. Thanks for holding down the fort in my absence Dr. Cub.

Since Sundays in lent are not a day of sacrifice, I figured I would come on real quick and chime in.

1. John Lucas III
2. Lu's tip in last night. Holy crap. We had no business winning that game whatsover. Completely outplayed.
3. Simplebays strength of schedule arguments... lol who cares. The goal in the regular season is to have the best record. There's no style points. No BCS style ranking system. Luckily the NBA has a playoff system. The "best team" arguments will sort themselves out later.
4. How we have a three game lead over Miami for HCA in the east is beyond me.
5. I love how this team does not forget. It's a very MJ/Tiger-like quality. Indiana and Orlando celebrated on our floor. They both got stomped in the next meeting. Philly beat us bad in Philly. We went into Philly and stomped them in the next meeting.
6. I think the Bulls have the best "team" in the NBA. Best depth. Most cohesion. Most day-in, day-out effort. That should equate to having the best regular season record. The problem is that playoffs are all about matchups and I still think Miami has an edge on us in a seven game series. Hope I'm wrong.

I'll be back in a few weeks.

Miami's loss last night puts us up 3.5 games, right?

I believe you're right Cubs. What is wrong with Miami that keeps them from winning more games? That is team that should challenge the Bulls 72 win season but seems to be missing something.

I agree with Deluxe on this Bulls team. They are the best team in the league. Having said that, I just don't see them beating the Heat in a 7-game series. The playoffs are much less about depth and more about your top 7 players. The Heat seem to have too much at the top for the Bulls. They are also probably the only team that can get away with doubling DRose when he crosses half court which throws the Bulls offense off completely. Maybe JLIII can hit some more shots over Lebron come playoff time

That would have been hard for any team to do in a 66-game season.

Playoffs!

Doesn't matter. Kobe's 81 would be more impressive than the Bulls going undefeated to win 73 games in a 66 game season.
ATXAg2007
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I was afraid that might not sound right. I was more referring to the fact that they already have 12 losses and haven't completed the 66-game season but I guess I had that coming.

Simple, what are you going to do with your time when Kobe is retired?

what are you going to do when Rose's career is cut short but too many injuries?

Brandon Rose?
Derek Roy?

Bad loss to the Nuggets last night, but Miami took another double digit loss for the second straight game so we still have a 3 1/2 game lead. They have 3 more games left on their schedule than we do, though.
Simplebay

Miami are 2-6 in their last 8 road games.

i wonder if deluxe still thinks HCA doesnt matter

The title of this article is strange considering the injury is significant and the Bulls have no chance of winning a title without Rose. Guess you can't expect too much from Bleacher Report though.

I'm starting to get concerned about Rose's groin injury. It sounds like it was pretty bad and I'm worried about how that will affect him once he does get back out there. He takes a lot of abuse when he plays and doesn't seem to know how to dial it back. They need to make sure he is fully healed before throwing him back out there.

Kobe Bryant is 24 points shy of Michael Jordan for 2nd on the NBA franchise career points list. Jordan scored 29,277 with the Bulls & Kobe's at 29,253.


once this happens...

Kobe > > > > > Jordan
