    Holy shit.

    Deng gets blocked 2 times within 5 seconds, and NASTY.

    Hawks end up with a highlight reel fast break/dunk out of it.

    Bulls down 30.

    This team is playing with the confidence of Charlie Brown.

    Vinnie is unshaven. Didn't Tim Floyd start looking all dedraggled like that his final year?

    Joe Smith.

    Just took the rebound out of Deng's hands.

    Someone wants this game.

    Nice to see James Johnson getting some burn.

    We need to develop him (he's a top 5-7 talent, after all) for the big league club that calls him up.

    Do you all notice the Hawks have 4 or 5 players in the paint on defense? Or as close to in the paint as they legally can. It was like that all game long. That's what happens when you don't have 3pt or long range shooting threats out there.

    Every team I've seen lately has 4 guys with their eyes glued to Derrick Rose at all times.

    I propose a new rule for the NBA: Ownership and management should attend all games at courtside.

    Here's a scary thought.

    Well, two.

    Ownership is busy counting their pennies saved, so they aren't interested in showing up at games courtside.

    And

    Noah may well earn MIP this year. What's a big who rebounds like him and blocks shots like him worth when it comes extension time?

    Seriously that's three plays in a row they've lured him out beyond the three point line. Twice he tried to switch on a screen and guard the guard flying past him. Brutal.

    I've seen a lot of teams run plays that pick off the PG so a C has to guard a PG. Maybe Gray has to forget about switching on those...

    Here's a depressing thought: Bulls are on the verge of falling behind the Knicks in the standings.

    Well yeah, every team is gonna try to do it, that doesn't mean we should be stupid enough to fall for it.

    I'm ragging on Gray, but if the coaches are instructing him to do that, it's just absurd.

    It's the right play, but maybe the Bulls should be playing zone when he's in.
