Official live action thread, chat about the game. Right now the Bulls are doing fairly well. Got to love Hinrich's defense once again he's just been pressing Rip like mad and frustrating him.
We are putting in a good effort without Wallace, Tyrus is pretty much done and Gordon out with 3 fouls already in the first half. Up by 1.
Tyrus has really played his heart out when he was on the court, the kid looks like he is about to die.

They also need to prevent offensive rebounds and second chance points for Detroit. That's been the killer all season long and without Wallace to help out under the basket it may cost us in the end. Our guys have been playing very well though so no one should count them out at all.
I'm starting to hold my breath every time someone goes down at this point. We have quickly become the walking wounded of the NBA, when Deng went down hard after trying to dunk on Maxiell I was on the edge of my seat until he got up. In response to michiganave I don't really think the Pistons were ever a quick team, so there was not much to lose in the speed department, but the addition of Chris Webber to the lineup really didn't help. They have several guys playing through injury right now, that is a big reason they might appear slower. Make no mistake about it though they are still a dangerous team regardless.

Does anyone agree?</div> Yeah a bit, but they still have the talent to compete in the league. Whenever they're down they always seem to come back. They're a very solid squad despite age.
Yea, that dunk looked scary at first. As usual, this is a great game. Looking forward to the next half.

BTW, BG is a horrible PG and a horrible defender.

The bulls looking good without BG in the lineup. We have a floor full of defenders and its giving The pistons some trouble.
