    If you want to bring up PJs name, the one thing he did well, and that this team sorely needs, is someone to set picks. I think Gray and Wallace are the only ones left who do that.</p>

    I usually convert on that, provided the pass to me is high enough.</p>

    I would have traded a fair amount to get Horford on the Bulls</p>

    I wonder if Skiles has the gustos to bench Kirk. Its the right move to make. I wonder what Hinrich's reaction would be. Would it fire him up? Would it crush his last shreds of confidence and send him in a spiral out of the league? To Steve Francis-ville? Will he sit there and pout, and not take it like a Gordon, even though he is the captain of the team, and supposed to show leadership.</p>

    Stat of the night:</p>

    Thomas+Noah 4-16, 19 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, 1 block, 8 PF, 13 points</p>

    In 37 minutes.</p>

    We would LOVE to have Wallace put up those numbers in 37 minutes.</p>

    I can't tell if you're being a little sarcastic, but I think you raise a real issue. Has Kirk ever (ever?) come off the bench? I doubt it. He didn't do it as a rookie.</p>

    Especially the eight fouls. I have to check basketballreference but I'd be surprised if one player has ever done that in 37 minutes.</p>

    I think we'd settle for the 4-16 given the rest of the stat sheet. And yeah, 8 PF is pretty studly.</p>

    CHICAGO (Ticker) -- The Atlanta Hawks continue to be a punchingbag for the Chicago Bulls.


    Luol Deng scored eight of his 22 points in a big third quarteras the Bulls breezed by the Hawks, 90-78, on Tuesday.

    Ben Gordon also had 11 of his 21 points right after halftime forChicago, which has beaten Atlanta 12 straight times.

    The Bulls snapped a four-game losing streak and were happy to behome after going 1-5 on their annual road trip near thebeginning of the season when the circus comes to the UnitedCenter for two weeks.


    Leading, 34-30, at the half, Chicago outscored Atlanta, 36-21,in the third to take a 70-51 lead into the final period.

    Deng, who left the game briefly in the second quarter afterbeing poked in the eye, connected on 3-of-4 in the quarter asBulls went on a 17-6 run to build their lead to 53-38 with 5:49remaining.


    Gordon scored seven points in the last 2 1/2 minutes of theperiod to help push Chicago's lead to 19 after three quarters.

    The Bulls, who shot 33 percent before halftime, finished at 39percent (35-of-89) from the field - slightly above of theirNBA-low 38 percent entering this contest.


    Chris Duhon also scored nine of his 11 points in the third forChicago, which hasn't lost to Atlanta since April 9, 2004.

    Joe Johnson scored 21 points and Josh Smith scored 12 for theHawks, who shot 40 percent (27-of-68) from the floor and weretrying for their first three-game road sweep since April 9-12,1997.
