    Puke.

    * I see a trend that the Bulls young players are not very good. Get them out there and even the dregs of the NBA have a very solid chance of beating us. Compare and contrast to 04-05.

    * I see a trend that the Bulls are getting progressively worse on defense.

    I only caught the last 6min of the game last night, but it was pitiful. It looked like the Bulls had the game and then forgot to play defense. How is it that, at team for three seasons that was known for their defense, simply can't defend anymore? I realize we're undersized in the backcourt, but that's no excuse for giving up 100+ consistently anymore.

    Giving up points isn't a good measure of their defense. They're pushing the ball upcourt faster these days, and that faster pace means more points for both sides.

    Giving up points might not be a great measure of defense, but they're still not playing good defense as best I can tell.
