Noah is just too active for us, we struggle against those types of guys..luckily none of the elite teams have one like that..

It's early in the year. Tail end of a back-to-back on the road is never an easy proposition. There will be ups and downs. I think if the Bulls were playing a lesser team they would be up by 15. I'm not stressing

HarlemHeat37

bad ending..

very good defense for the most part, offense has been alright..

horrible rebounding, poor free throw shooting, very poor decision making..

we're in a good spot considering how poor we've played, and considering it's a back-to-back against a young, athletic team..

DPG21920
10-29-2009, 08:23 PM
Knee-jerk reaction.

Not even close to it. I have been watching Noah for a few years. He has proven himself in the NBA and would be much better on the Spurs than Blair and would play much more as well.

symple19
10-29-2009, 08:23 PM
I think the Spurs are doing well to only be down by 1. As bad as they've been on the glass and turning it over, they're still right there.

Collins is right, Pop is gonna be letting em' have it in the locker room

dbestpro

If Pop would like someone to rebound the ball he maybe ought to think about using someone other than Finley at power forward.

Anyone who had eyes to see the game would know that the Spurs were giving up rebounds like a drug addict taking his meds.

superjames1992
10-29-2009, 08:23 PM
I don't like to criticize Pop, but I really don't understand going with four smalls and only one big (Duncan). That's the reason the Spurs have given up tons of offensive rebounds.

Last year it was more understandable, but this year we have Duncan, Bonner, Blair, McDyess, and Ratliff. I don't get it. Maybe Pop is just trying new things out as we still are very early in the season.

Spurs Brazil

If we improve our reb in the 2nd half we'll win

I'm gonna ring Pop's neck if he doesn't stop using this goddamned small ball lineup.

"Oh they have 19 second chance points?"

"Yeah, I wonder how that happened..."

"Couldn't be the fact our PF position is being played by Michael Finley, could it?"

"NAAAA, lets keep all of our great new bigs on the bench and just hope things work out. We have to have Fin on the court...He's the Franchise.'

Creation88
10-29-2009, 08:24 PM
yeah the line-up was terrible. that's on Pop. but the hustle needs to come from the players.

Bulls got all the bounces and we're only down by 1 right now.

I don't like to criticize Pop, but I really don't understand going with four smalls and only one big (Duncan). That's the reason the Spurs have given up tons of offensive rebounds.

Last year it was more understandable, but this year we have Duncan, Bonner, Blair, McDyess, and Ratliff. I don't get it. Maybe Pop is just trying new things out as we still are very early in the season.
No. We would get killed on the fast break not matching the Bulls lineup.

PG: Derrick Rose
SG: Kirk Hinrich
SF: John Salmons
PF: Luol Deng
C: Joakim Noah

That was their lineup. Deng was killing it before Jefferson was placed at the 4.

I think the Spurs are doing well to only be down by 1. As bad as they've been on the glass and turning it over, they're still right there.

Collins is right, Pop is gonna be letting em' have it in the locker room

That or hitting the wine.:lol

The Bulls were using a smaller lineup, too, so that's why Pop had a small ball lineup in there.
The Spurs need to rebound much better than they are, especially on the defensive end. Also, their defensive rotations on the perimeter are subpar. The Bulls are getting way too many easy shots.

This is Pops way of introducing the new players to Pop speak. You don't hustle and go get the ball he will sit you down and play a shooting guard at power forward.

Not even close to it. I have been watching Noah for a few years. He has proven himself in the NBA and would be much better on the Spurs than Blair and would play much more as well.

I think I'll wait and judge Blair vs Noah after the beast has been around for another year or so. I do know this, Noah is a bit of a prima-donna, and I don't think that attitude would fly with Pop

I think it's more of an issue with the tempo. although bulls aren't getting good shots off initially, they're stretching us defensively and once we lose our shape, the boards are there for the team who wants it more.

This is not an indictment on Blair. Blair is an excellent player, but as far as what this Spurs team needs and how much each guy would play, Noah would be much better.

He would no doubt be the starter.

I've been watching him too, and he's a third tier athletic center... I don't know exactly what you mean that he has proven... that he belongs to the NBA? Possibly. But not much more than that.

Man, the Spurs are playing shitty and we're only down by 1. This is our worst keeping up with some of the Bulls' best lol.

Blair looked like he was out of it, which is understandable since it's his first time traveling in a back 2 back and the game is pretty early.


Mason has impressed me, he is soooo much faster than last year. His defense has improved greatly thanks to his hard work.

Duncan is looking pretty damn good, his D so far is looking solid while his offense is looking great.


Hill's Defense has also impressed me, he was doing a pretty good job guarding Rose.

Manu's not back to his old self yet, but he sure is getting there.

Well you can have your opinion on his abilities and fit next to Duncan, and I can have mine. He has proven himself in the NBA as a player, in the playoffs against tough competition and will certainly play more minutes and contribute more than Blair.

LOL at saying he "possibly" belongs in the NBA. He is not Dwight Howard, but he is a solid player that DEFINITELY belongs.

2nd half..

-Duncan needs the ball more, slow it down..a lot of post-ups..the Bulls are going to double-team, and if they don't, he's already shown he's going to score most of the time..

-A lot of 2-man between Parker and Duncan..Rose can't keep up with TP, and Duncan is doing his thing..I loved the high post action with Timmy, that play with TP is always money..

-Don't let Finley guard Salmons or Deng anymore..Deng is getting open Js just rising over him all day, and Salmons is penetrating by him at will..

-Obviously more effort on rebounding..

I think the Spurs are taking the Bulls best shot. I trust Pop to make adjustments and counter whatever lineup the Bulls put out there in the second half.

Think we'll see more Timmy and a slower tempo. Force the Bulls into more of a half-court game.

Timmy has a +/- of +13 so far.

No, I am saying a guy who averaged 10 PTS, 13 REBS, on 51% FG and 76% FT with 2 BLKS per game against the Celtics in the playoffs would have more of an impact than Blair. Spurs are in win now mode, hence, I would take Noah over Blair.

Noah is a pretty good player, no doubt. But I don't think he'll ever be a 1st or even a 2nd option on offense. That's why he'll never become anything more than a pretty good player

Without Ben Gordon last year the Bulls get swept, without Noah last year I think it still goes 6 or 7
