Hell yea, Bulls just beat the Jazz. Wow. I thought they might choke there for a while. Thankfully though, Gordon was able to knock down all 4 of his free throws in the final 30 seconds of the game to help us win it. By the way, Gordon finally showed why we got him, posting a game high 22 points, shooting 7/15 from the floor and 4/7 from the line.
Yea, hopefully this sends them in the right direction, maybe we can get some momentum off this win and string a few wins together to make this season a little better.
I think that getting benched lit a fire under Curry and Gordon and I feel they will only improve upon this effort.

I think he could now be getting used to the way the ball is played in the NBA and to his role on the team, and that might be helping his play overall.

Wow the bulls finally Won. GREAT! Theyve got a long road to go if they are considering the playoffs. But Im happy they finally Won. Big ups to Gordon who had a great game. ONE!(love)
It was a good win for them it had to come sooner or later. I believe that we have given up on this team to early this season who is to say they wont win 9 out of there next 11 games or something, and be right back in the playoff race or at least on the outside looking in.
I agree with you Pure. I feel a lot of guys on this forum gave up on the Bulls too early. If Curry and Gordon can play consistanly like this, I think we may have a shot at the 8th seed in the east. I mean, it is the east.

However, I will say, it was looking very bleak. And despite this win, we're still locked outside and looking on the inside. In other words, we still have a TON of ground to make up. The nine game losing streak was really a downer for this team. They haven't produced consistently and haven't been playing well overall, and for that matter, can't hold a lead still. So, right now, unless we win a couple more games here ASAP, I will find no reason after that to believe the Bulls have a chance of doing anything this year.

I see no reason why we cant do the same with more time left in our season.
Let's hope so, so that we won't have a team that every year gets some promising players and end up having the worst record year after year
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting NikeAir8:</div><div class="quote_post">Let's hope so, so that we won't have a team that every year gets some promising players and end up having the worst record year after year</div> This keeps happening because we take players that take too long to develop. I think that this pattern is changing though with Hinrich, Deng, Gordon, and Nocioni.
