    Great start. BG comes out aggressive and takes care of the ball and looks good doing it. Rose playing well too.

    Did anyone else have trouble logging in today. I may have just typed my password wrong like six times, but I think it got automatically changed?

    My feed is a little grainy, but it looks like Hinrich and Gordon are just losing control of the ball more than it is being poked away, like the ball is wet or something.

    We updated the software to vb 3.8, but you're the only one who's complained about login problems so far.

    Apparently you're in tho (awesome!) :)

    It looks pretty when Kirk Hinrich dribbles the ball, but he accomplishes nothing. Classic Kirk is back. He completely stalled the offense when he was at point guard.

    No biggie. I just reset my password. Thanks for your work on updating the DB.

    It wasn't so much the dribbling as the turning the ball over, the dribbling was fine up until the point he just lost it. And he shot like crap, too, and basically played like dogshit for the half.

    But I love how BG has 10 crappy games and nothing is wrong, but Hinrich has a a bad half and somehow that's who he is...

    Minny has some nice talent.

    Love would be an awesome fit on the Bulls. Foye, Jefferson, and Miller are no slouches.

    I'd say put the ball in Gordon's hands here. Rose has missed too many game winning/tiers this year. Time to give Gordon his chance.

    Please stop putting the ball in Derricks hand like that at the end of games. They're going to block off the drive. Rose isn't a good jumpshooter. Put it in Gordon's hands, and let him decide to drive, shoot, or take a floater.

    If you're going to put it in Derrick's hand, run some type of play.

    I'm pretty sure there was a play and I am pretty sure it wasn't for BG to bring his man to Rose and let them double team like that...

    Gordon wasn't anywhere near Rose on that last play. Rose dribbled it until ~5 seconds left (too little time, IMO) before trying to get his shot off.

    BG was at the elbow and it looked like he was supposed to set the pick, then he ran around behind Rose.

    The play was an isolation for Rose, mano-a-mano against Telfair. Rose shot because the play was called for him.

    Bulls lose.

    Bulls lose. Common for us these days. Even the T Wolves are a better team than ours. >_>.

    What the shit is going on at the end? I mean, taking a guy in or out for defense or offense, I've seen that before, but did we really just *NEED* Aaron Gray on the court for the final minute.

    It was like a hockey game out there.
