    so what did you guys think of ben gordon taking and making the shot instead of running down the clock. i was wondering when he was dribbling up court if any bulls player would shoot it, then when he drove to the basket and dribbled away i was like good gordon didn't shoot it. then i was like oh crap he just did. the announcer got on him for that too and so did the assistant coach. come on ben, take a lesson from lebron who has a lot of class..

    All that matters is this he had 31 points against the Minnesota Wolves you can not blame the guy for shooing he was having a good night, and having a good shooting night as well he wanted to ride up his stats a little and was confident in his shot so I do not mind him taking it we won, and he was a big reason for why we won so you really can not hate on him for it.

    Disrespectful. He probably did that just to pad his own stats. Lord knows that he is not having the season everyone expected him to. The Bulls have lost so much that I would only assume that he knows what is right from wrong in end of game situations.

    I don't know what the problem is. Why does everyone have a problem with those last second scoring? If a player wants to add something to their stats why not? I have no idea why it is disrespectful for someone to do that.

    Shoot it! He was feelin it that night and the more shots that go in for a young player the more confidence they gain. I dont care if you are up by 100pts with 1 second to go lob it up and see what you are made of.

    No. You don't do that. Win with humility.


    Pete Myers chewed him out afterwards, deservingly so.
