Yeah we are 2 games up on IND for the 2 seed. Chicago is 0.5 games up on ATL for the 5 seed. Grab the game on Sunday against IND gives us another game on them. I think if we win FRI and SUN we clinch the 2 seed. Chicago is now in Miami's bracket of the playoffs and faces BK first round. Have fun Deathstar if the standings remain like this
When they was up by 17 and 15 why they still shooting 3's? Drive to the hole and draw fouls and get them in foul trouble like Robinson did to us
They were on fire in the 1st quarter with the 3 ball and cooled off throughout the game. We don't have big man presence with Amare, Chandler and Martin injured. Melo missed a bunch of layups and the game winning jumper. On Tuesday at home, we couldn't miss. Last night, as the game went on, everybody was missing shots.
Like you said, no inside players plus a 8 man rotation. Legs get real tired real quick. I like our performance. THe bulls are a good team but we hung around while doubling like crazy. Solomon Jones is coming to Knicks. Big guy around 7 feet I think or close to it. Kurt Thomas is waived unfortunately.
Anyone else have been extremely disappointed in Steve Novak all season long? I'm still waiting for some consistency from him.
Yeah he needs to learn a contested 3 from him is a good 3. I do like he doesn't mind putting the ball on the floor anymore and taking an open 2
It's likely that the Bulls will go 2-0 in their last 2 and hawks go 1-1, making them tied. Who's got the tie breaker? Keep those guys out of our bracket!
Yeah BUT IND/BOS isn't so bad. They won't know what offense is if we meet them in the 2nd round. I unfortunately missed the game today. Looked like we got through IND with only Solomon Jones as our big man. Also, exciting news, Rasheed MIGHT MIGHT be coming back tomorrow if he feels well. I think we all agree, Rasheed (out of Camby/Amare/Sheed) is probably the most valuable of the 3 that we can get back.
Wouldn't you want Chicago to be tied with ATL so we could potentially get ATL or Indiana in the 2nd round if we get past Boston
Geez is Indiana dirty...the play on Shump, Hibbard went right for his face the ball was 2 feet above that...
need atlanta to lose to either the raptors tomorrow at home or on the road to the knicks and the bulls to beat both at magic and home against the wizards for the bulls to get the 5th seed and out of the knicks bracket
That means they think their big men are healthy I guess. QRich also has bad history with Pierce and Lebron, so might just be a troll move. He called Pierce an "actress"
Q Rich is a good signing for us he brings toughness to the team and he is another scorer. He fits what we are trying to do and he is much better than Jones was. If Wallace and Camby and Kmart can weather the injuries we might have ourselves a championship contender.
Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA 24s New York's Rasheed Wallace has retired. Again. WHAT the fuck...Say it aint so Sheed?
