    Nice move by Smith.</p>

    Noah steals it and dribbles all the way down the court. Good grief!</p>

    On the brighter side, he made it all the way downcourt, unlike Tyrus circa last year.</p>

    What does "BA" mean in the stat column on nba.com?</p>

    </div></p>

    Blocks Against, I believe, meaning how many times a player gets his shot blocked.</p>

    I love Joakim Noah. I don't understand how somebody could dislike him, honestly.</p>

    Jarvis Hayes was such garbage as a Wizard. A walking injury.</p>

    BA = Block Against</p>

    Scott Skiles seemed mildly irritated at him based on todays papers.</p>

    On the brigher side, Skiles has him out there on the court.</p>

    And on the brighter side, we've still got a healthy lead.</p>

    Flip Murray is quite possibly the league's worst defender.</p>

    Eh, I don't think his comments are anything to put much stock into. What Joakim said about the team was right, but Skiles just felt like he shouldn't be making public statements like that this early in his career. That's Joakim though, and that's one of the reasons I like him. If he sees something going wrong with his team, he's gonna come out and say it. The guy knows how to win. Maybe it would have sounded better coming from Kirk Hinrich or Ben Wallace, but I wouldn't say Noah is in the doghouse or anything.</p>

    So, you mean to tell me that if you take care of the ball and rebound well, you set yourself up in good position to win games?</p>

    Huh. Who knew?</p>

    Yeah, didn't mean to say otherwise... although he does rub some of the more "right way" oriented amongst Bulls cogniscenti the wrong way.</p>

    Speaking of Noah, he just scored his first bucket as a Bull. Congrats Joey!</p>

    Yikes, that looks a lot like the play Chandler hurt his back on. Kirk looks fine though.</p>

    Wallace is still goofy about playing the Pistons. He really wants to be scoring tonight, and while I appreciate the effort, I'm frankly a little concerned by it.</p>

    Goodness, that was quite a dangerous pass from Kirk to Ty, and a heck of a job of Ty to collect it. Unfortunately he got blocked</p>

    Doug Collins is talking up the drafting of Thabo and the need for a big guard. Meh.</p>

    The Bulls are totally verticalscoping this up. (We can make that a verb, right?)</p>
