    Not enough defense. Not enough offense.

    Rose needs to shoot better. Can't complain about 10 assists and 2 turnovers, but he is supposed to be a superstar so we can't have 6-20 from the field and 0 FTA. That's no gouda!

    Gasol can't play like he did tonight if the Bulls expect to win. Soft. Taj was a rumor on the boards tonight. Noah needs to be a beast out there on the glass and on defense to warrant playing.

    Bulls can't be outrebounded by 8 and win.

    Other than the 1st, it was a tight game. The Bulls looked like they had a chance to claw back in the 3rd, but just could not secure key defensive rebounds and 50/50 balls.

    Their non JR Smith / Love 3 point shooters killed the Bulls. Jones 5-9. Shump 4-7. Della 2-5.

    The best player in the league (sorry steph) played like it. Lebron was a beast. Kyrie, the 2nd best player on the court (sorry jimmy) also had a big game. Lebron got to the line 9 times and Kyrie 12. Derrick had 0 FTA.

    Our "big 3" didn't perform. Gasol with a below average game. Rose with an average game. Jimmy played strong I thought. He's putting in a yoman's effort.

    Gasol/Noah/Gibson is supposed to be an advantage in board domination, but with Noah ineffective and Gibson lame it isn't Thompson is a truly gifted offensive rebounder.

    1-1 at Cleveland is great! Bulls were favored to lose both games. Have to be ready for the 1st quarter in game 3 and Derrick needs to step up and earn his massive check. It would help if Gasol can be the 3rd guy of a big 3. Tonight's effort won't cut it.

    All I know is I'm glad I had a long after hours meeting tonight.

    Noah is my favorite Bull and he's the heart of the team, but this simply can't be allowed to happen. And I don't know how to do it given his current state of play other than benching him.

    Has a player ever gone from 1st-team all-nba to benchtable in 1 season?

    He has not been the same all season long. He had a game or two where he played well during the season, other than that, he needs benching.
