That was pretty darn fun game. Our hopes for this season really rely on Rip's ability to round into shape and stay healthy, don't they?
CJ was a big part of the story last night, I agree. Even if Rip isn't right, the bench mob has been restored, and more seems right with the world.
If rip can beat the nagging minor injury bug and get into playing shape, our fortunes will improve. Last night we went on the road and beat a west conference team with a solid record!
That was as impressive a road win as the Pacer's was over the Bulls. Gary Neal is not going to hit those shots on a nightly basis. His layup over Asik was just sick. The game really wasn't that close and the Bulls' execution down the stretch was gorgeous.
