Hinrich is back in, too. "Screw you, Pax, the lineup changes you just phoned in cost us 7 points in the score column."
This is the first time in three years that I've ever seen the Bulls consistently go under screens on a particular player. That particular player happened to drop 28 shooting around 66%. Connection? Guess that was a bad move.
Every time I get down on myself for being a Nets fan, it's always nice to remind myself "Hey, at least I don't like the Bulls!"

My point is that Skiles was a great defensive coach, supposedly, but it appears to me that Bach was the real genius behind the Bulls playing great defense. Without Bach, Skiles is exposed as not being all that good at the X's and O's on the defensive side of the ball.
