I watched the game, bout to go check out his remarks. NTC, the Pistons just managed to beat us, that is all to be said.
Whatever with blaming Skiles. We got beat by a team that played better than us. We have been since we started this series. When Detroit was down by 19 or so all they did was play hard. They don't care if they're up by 20 or down by 20 they're playing great ball right now. And I'm saying this as a person who hates Detroit because of the rivalry. But as a NBA fan they're playing awesome and we played like **** in the second half.
<div class="quote_poster">Ed! Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Just don't get swept, and I'll be content.</div> Ah, same here. I expected the series to either be close or the Bulls to get rocked if they came in with their "aura" of inconsistency. I'm really happy they made it passed the first round. However, they swept Miami so it would've been more content for them to reach the Conference finals, but the series is still not over really. Right now they're still not out because they either storn back with another run like they always tend to have for several games or the dramatic problems continue into the fourth game. They're always like this and have been for years. I'm not worried either way at the moment. Also (not you, Ed) please stop with the Skiles firing BS. That's straight out trash.
Just finished watching the game. I watched a recording, but I could tell the Pistons were going to come back.
"The Bulls became less aggressive, unlike in the first half and started pump faking shots." Quoted by Chauncey Billups. This is the MAIN reason why we lost. It through us off bad. Even though, I still think we can win, we just have to take it a game at a time.
No surprise the Bulls lost the game, too bad the game couldn't finish at halftime. The Bulls always blow leads when other teams face the zone.. and Deng, Hinrich, or Gordon just haven't performed. Wonder why Skiles didn't put Duhon in, Gordon or Hinrich weren't close to spectacular.
