Game Blog: Spurs vs. Bulls - Jan. 25

[Mal]

Too scared to start watching it

[murpjf88]

Jefferson making a tough shot out of...nothing at all.

Instead of taking it strong to the basket, he goes with his weak ass fade away.

[duncan228]

Maybe I have mysterious Pop powers I did not know about.

:lol Use them wisely.

[poop]

people who eat at jack in the box are Fat.

[Brazil]

there was a time when you automatically benched your fantasy role players when they met the spurs, now you say youpi they are going to boost your FG%

[SCdac]

Feel kinda bad for Jefferson on that one. Yeah, he should drive the ball and not take a tough fadeaway, but there were like 5 people under the basket, and he's going to have to make jump shots let alone big jumpshots, that's just basketball. Some of his shots tonight have been wide open.

[Dex]

Ok Pop! Tell RJ to quit being a douchebag, and don't even think about that small ball shit!

[Chieflion]

14 million POS.
Jason Kidd is the fucking man. That is all. It is not RJ's fault he is the type who looks good under PGs like Kidd.

[DPG21920]

He is not taking great shots, but his defense has been decent tonight. I would like to see him give that effort on the boards though. I know it is hard with Duncan/Blair/Dice, but could still try. He does leak out quickly though, so that could explain a lot of it.

[ffadicted]

D Blair with 7 offensive rebounds in the first half, jesus christ kiddo

[mystargtr34]

Spurs getting lit up defensively, but they have missed a shit ton of good looks. Still in the game, but I would love to see the Spurs amp up the defense in the second half.

Rose is just lacing jump shots. Funny thing is if RJ was taking those same jumpers, Spurs fans would chastise him.

Difference is, hes hitting them. If RJ had made his first one or two, then i would be fine with him taking one or two more to see if they're consistently falling. RJ is 0-4 on jumpers and 1-1 when going to the basket.

[DPG21920]

Instead of taking it strong to the basket, he goes with his weak ass fade away.

Is Rose taking it to the rim? No. He is settling for jump shots and they happen to be falling.

[blkroadrunners]

Good shot Mase

[Chieflion]

DeJuan Blair with the behind the back and the pass!

[Dex]

Oh, and maybe try mentioning something about defense between the obscenities.

kthxbye.

[Johnny RIngo]

Jason Kidd is the fucking man.

He's doing a hell of a job with Gooden over in Dallas.

[TD 21]

Somewhere along the way to winning 4 championships in 9 seasons this coach apparently forgot how to work a rotation. 7 guys for the first, what, 18 minutes? What the fuck is he doing...AGAIN?! Parker's playing too many minutes, the defense is beyond awful, as usual and the offense continues to sputter along. This team is a mess in virtually every area of the game. The only thing improving is the turnovers, but the offense and the rebounding, which were solid all year, are getting worse by the game. This is actually worse than a mess, this is turning into (if it's not already) a disaster.

Jefferson, I haven't constantly been complaining about him like many, but what the fuck is he doing NEVER taking the ball to the hole? Does this guy not realize he was brought in to give them a slasher, a wing who could post up and a finisher in transition? Not another spot up shooter, which they have plenty of.

[Chieflion]

Good shit Mason, what a turnover.

[Mal]

How the hell Bulls are 68% from the field ?

[Johnny RIngo]

Is Rose taking it to the rim? No. He is settling for jump shots and they happen to be falling.

Rose actually has talent though.

[Brazil]

How the hell Bulls are 68% from the field ?

they are playing the spurs

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

grizzly need to learn to pass the bb out
RJ need to sit his weak ass on the bench

[angelbelow]

No Bonner or Ian.. I think we should play another big to reserve some energy for TD, Dice and Blair.

[Spurs Brazil]

Another open J for Salmons

[blkroadrunners]

Great, now Salmons' makin shots.

[ffadicted]

Jason Kidd is the fucking man. That is all. It is not RJ's fault he is the type who looks good under PGs like Kidd.

He looked good last year with the Bucks
Guys, trust me, come playoff time we'll be so glad we have jeffy

[TPnumber1]

fcking refs

[Dex]

Chicago playing like the Globetrotters.

[murpjf88]

Is Rose taking it to the rim? No. He is settling for jump shots and they happen to be falling.

What's your point. Rose as 14 points. He can shoot all day with uncontested jump shots. Don't compare Rose to Rj because their is no comparison.

[Libri]

At least keep the Bulls lead under 10.

[Brazil]

Tyrus with a double digit blok just watch

[siraulo23]

i cant belive this shit

[timtonymanu]

our bigs are throwing up weak shots.

[mystargtr34]

Blair is about 0-6 on attempted put backs after grabbing an offensive rebound. He should pass it back out and run another play, the Bulls have alot of size down there.

[Spurs Brazil]

Our guards playing D are pathetic, all of them, just too soft, giving a lot of space. Just terrible

[Chieflion]

He looked good last year with the Bucks
Guys, trust me, come playoff time we'll be so glad we have jeffy
I don't think a forward shooting 43% can be called good. He wasn't supposed to be the number 1 option.

[boutons_deux]

I bet spurs go under 40% for the half

[Mal]

wow, Bulls are kicking theirs asses... Freaking Bulls

[murpjf88]

The defense seems to be regressing with each passing game.

[Spurs Brazil]

Bulls are shooting a lot of OPEN Js, that's why they can't miss

[L.I.T]

I just can't understand how the Spurs are completely incapable of competing for four quarters a game. I just can't.

[angelbelow]

Damn this is a disappointing quarter..

[Ice009]

Well the Spurs need to do something. We are getting a decent line up out there for once from Pop so it's on the players.

Can't give the balls open shots. Gotta be more aggressive on offense and not settle for jumpers.

[Chomag]

So has Pop given up completely on getting this team to play defence or what?

[timtonymanu]

spurs get worse and worse every game. and some blind homers think this team is gonna pick it up.

[siraulo23]

expect the spurs to make a run to make it close but we're gonna lose this one

[itzsoweezee]

is duncan injured? this is his third straight sub-par game.

[Shastafarian]

He looked good last year with the Bucks
Guys, trust me, come playoff time we'll be so glad we have jeffy

p3-eavMSBnk

[Johnny RIngo]

Send RJ to D-League and play Hairston instead. Spurs need to do something drastic to motivate that lazy pos.

[TD 21]

Blair is playing awful, yet he plays the majority of the half? This is beyond bizarre at this point. I have no idea what to expect with the rotation, so how can the players? Yeah, you can pull the "they're professionals, they need to stay ready" bullshit, but everyone who's watched the NBA for any period of time knows that players play better when they have a defined role and part of that role is knowing when you're going to play and when you're not going to play.

Is it just an inevitable slump or is Duncan wearing down again? He is laboring to score the past few games and is looking slightly less mobile by the game. It's obvious to anyone at this point that if this organization wants to salvage this thing that they better make a trade for another starting caliber big. A wing stopper wouldn't hurt, either.

[angelbelow]

He looked good last year with the Bucks
Guys, trust me, come playoff time we'll be so glad we have jeffy

Agreed. We just gotta be patience with the guy... and glad we didn't trade for Carter instead.

[siraulo23]

72% wow

[tomtom]

Holy shit Bull's can't miss if they wanted to. Spurs getting can't finish for shit, this is where the perimeter shooting is sorely missed. Hell at least Bonner and Finley could spread the floor

[Brazil]

Damn this is a disappointing quarter..

maybe it's a good sign after all normally we screw the 3rd

[Refocus]

Bulls FG 72%

Blair is having a nice game actually. Hes playing with great energy and is rebounding on both ends. Hes making some mistakes but you gotta like the effort he plays with.

[murpjf88]

He looked good last year with the Bucks
Guys, trust me, come playoff time we'll be so glad we have jeffy

At this poiont, I'll just be glad if they make the playoffs. It isn't looking too good.

[blkroadrunners]

Bulls FG 72%

http://i48.tinypic.com/33w04ma.gif

That sums it up right there.. :depressed

[Libri]

Spurs on a little run.

[Spurs Brazil]

Mason Jr 333333333333333333

[blkroadrunners]

Mase 3!

[Chieflion]

The momentum is shifting.

[angelbelow]

Mase!

[TPnumber1]

nice 52-50

[SCdac]

Mason is undoubtedly instant offense.

Offense only thing keeping us in this game.

[Ice009]

Mason Jr. baby!

[ffadicted]

lol cliffjumping spurs fans from the bulls hitting contested jays looking foolish right now

[angelbelow]

The momentum is shifting.

OHhhh yea

[tomtom]

about damn time they scored

[ElNono]

Just play Mason over RJ... At least the guy can hit a shot...

[Brazil]

its like a deja vu ! good first all beginning of the 2 then tie game to close the 1st half then the gigantic 3rd quarter hole

[Pauleta14]

Thank you Viny Del Negro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If he didn't call that time out....lol

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Just play Mason over RJ... At least the guy can hit a shot...

:tu

[Crookshanks]

Okay - the Bulls miss 4 in a row - maybe they're starting to cool off.

[siraulo23]

6 straight stops to end the half

[timtonymanu]

Bogans - 0 minutes.

[Spurs Brazil]

Bulls up 52-50 at the half

[Refocus]

There we go.. they missed like 6 in a row. Not too bad of an ending to the half.

Time to prepare for the infamous 3rd quarter. :)

[murpjf88]

Bogans - 0 minutes.

Deservedly so. Hope it stays that way.

[Crookshanks]

That was a good end to the half. Let's hope they can keep it up after half-time.

[Ice009]

Blair is playing awful, yet he plays the majority of the half? This is beyond bizarre at this point. I have no idea what to expect with the rotation, so how can the players?

Blair is working hard. Harder than most people on the court. I have no problem with his mistakes because he leaving it out there on the floor. Sure he can play smarter, but he is a rookie that is still learning.

[blkroadrunners]

Not too shabby closing out the qtr.

[Pauleta14]

The momentum is shifting.

... since Del Negro called timeout!!!:lol

[timtonymanu]

damn Manu we needed that. oh well 2 point deficit is better than 9.

[Brazil]

finley the saviour is coming !

[ElNono]

Well.. They were on pace to 60 points until those misses at the end...
Relatively average quarter defensively. We only allowed 23 points...

[boutons_deux]

-2 vs 57% shooting is damn lucky.

Spurs have 9 more shots, ORB.

DJB 4 - 11 instead of 8 of 11 under the basket, darn, what's happened to his put backs?

[Chomag]

lol cliffjumping spurs fans from the bulls hitting contested jays looking foolish right now

I would say the same thing about the Homers.

[Chieflion]

Congratulations to Sundiata Gaines for having a full season NBA contract. He seems like a nice guy.

[Libri]

offensive rebounds

Spurs 11
Bulls 2

[Brazil]

tyrus has 2 or 4 blks ?

[twincam]

Any of you guys see that cute woman with the white tight shirt on the stands? STACKED!!!

[Chieflion]

tyrus has 2 or 4 blks ?
2 blocks from TV companion.

[TPnumber1]

tyrus has 2 or 4 blks ?

2

[ElNono]

I don't know what people are barking at with regards to Blair... The only reason this game is close is because the guy has been rebounding like there's no tomorrow... Also, they're scoring everything from distance... They'll cool down. Just don't allow a layup drill and we'll be ok...

[Brazil]

2 blocks from TV companion.

thx they have 4 on cbs and I saw 2 so I was like wtf?

[TD 21]

Blair is having a nice game actually. Hes playing with great energy and is rebounding on both ends. Hes making some mistakes but you gotta like the effort he plays with.

I completely disagree. He's playing awful. Sure, he's playing with effort and energy, but this is a classic case of stats being deceiving: he can't finish a damn thing around the rim (this is being a recurring trend).

Ginobili, who had quietly become one of the best shooters in the league by '08 has regressed to the point where he's bordering on being an awful shooter.

I'll give Pop this: while I don't like the rotation in the first half (in terms of who/when he subbed), I do like the fact that, for once, the eight best players on the team played the entire half. In a game where they're clearly motivated, rested, at home, playing an average team, only playing their eight best players, they're still struggling mightily? Could their be (other than season ending injuries to the big three) anything more alarming/telling to the front office than this?

Another double digit first quarter lead gone in the blink of an eye.

[Pauleta14]

tyrus has 2 or 4 blks ?

with or without the goal tending? :lol

[Chomag]

Well it's now the 3rd quarter (gulp)

[blkroadrunners]

tyrus has 2 or 4 blks ?

2. The other 2 were goaltends.

[siraulo23]

when is the last game duncan shot 50+ FG%?

[Chieflion]

NBA league pass showing Anthony Tolliver, LOL.

[timvp]

Hopefully the push at the end of the half gives the Spurs some momentum. You gotta think the Bulls will start mixing in some misses on their midrange jumpers.

Spurs just need this win ... I don't care how they get it.

[the crimson blur]

I completely disagree. He's playing awful. Sure, he's playing with effort and energy, but this is a classic case of stats being deceiving: he can't finish a damn thing around the rim (this is being a recurring trend).

What.

Blair is playing fantastic. What are you on about. The may have missed a few but those shots were created by the fact that he got the off. rebound in the first place. Its not like taking those shots were bad ideas; they go down 70% of the time. He is causing so much attention to himself; 3 Bulls are around him whenever a shot goes up.

[timvp]

I'm glad Bogans hasn't played. Pop needs to keep it that way.

[angelbelow]

Nice way to end the half, hopefully we dont have one of our legendary 3rd quarter collapses.

[Brazil]

I'm glad Bogans hasn't played. Pop needs to keep it that way.

I'm glad pop gave already 7 min to Mase

[Ice009]

I completely disagree. He's playing awful. Sure, he's playing with effort and energy, but this is a classic case of stats being deceiving: he can't finish a damn thing around the rim (this is being a recurring trend).

Another double digit first quarter lead gone in the blink of an eye.

Blair is playing as hard as he can.

Who would you rather have out there? What do you want Blair to do? He's short so he can't grab the rebound and dunk it on everyone. Most of his shots were tough misses. You can't expect him to shoot 100%.

[duncan228]

when is the last game duncan shot 50+ FG%?

At Memphis. Before that against the Lakers, Nets, Mavs, Pistons.

[timvp]

Blair's pick-and-roll defense hasn't been good but his overall energy has made him a positive.

[DPG21920]

Sons, thank God Downtown Devin Brown is not there.

[Chieflion]

Nice steal by Hill and layup!

[Libri]

Look at that D from Hill.

[DPG21920]

Good rebound and full court take by RJ. Too bad it did not fall.

[TD 21]

I'd like to see Mason start the 2nd half in favor of Hill. Nothing against Hill's play, but this team can't defend to save their lives any way and the Bulls are due to start missing contested long range jumpers, so put the knockdown shooter into a lineup where not one other guy is a knockdown shooter.

While I'm in no way confident in saying this, I've got a hunch that the Spurs blow the Bulls out in the second half. The Spurs are due and there's no way the Bulls continue to make the shots they were making in the first half at anywhere near the same clip in the second half.

[TPnumber1]

tony with the floater

[timvp]

That's Hinrich being Hinrich.

[Brazil]

yes TP

[SCdac]

Will we ever throw the ball into Jefferson in the post, or let him create a play again?

[phxspurfan]

Anyone else getting really bad lag on LP broadband?



I'm getting the TV version next time.

[angelbelow]

Nice start to the 3rd

[Brazil]

bulls have 2 strong shot blkers with tyrus and taj maybe they could give one to us

[Chieflion]

What a lame contest, and the foul to add to it.

[Libri]

Why TP? Why?

[Spurs Brazil]

Blair needs to stop force the action. Terrible shot and the Bulls got a and one

[Ice009]

That was a bad play from DeJuan on the last offensive possession.

[timvp]

Now RJ passing up open threes :pctoss

[ElNono]

Richard completely invisible out there...

[Libri]

That was a pretty good move by RJ.

[angelbelow]

I completely disagree. He's playing awful. Sure, he's playing with effort and energy, but this is a classic case of stats being deceiving: he can't finish a damn thing around the rim (this is being a recurring trend).

Ginobili, who had quietly become one of the best shooters in the league by '08 has regressed to the point where he's bordering on being an awful shooter.

Another double digit first quarter lead gone in the blink of an eye.

Don't be so hard on the kid. He has continued to improve through out the season and is one of the positive additions to our roster this year. I think hes playing with great effort and I hope he keeps it up.

[Spurs Brazil]

Fucking Jefferson. useless piece of shit

[Ice009]

RJ is the worst shooter on the team, yes even worse than Bogans.

[ElNono]

Now RJ passing up open threes :pctoss

He's tired of standing there... That's just not his game...

[Brazil]

noah dunk

[angelbelow]

Damn it

[siraulo23]

blair making too many mistakes

horrible

[Chieflion]

You guys bitch about RJ taking threes, now he attacks the rim and you guys are not happy either? Geez.

[timtonymanu]

I fuckin hate RJ.

[Chieflion]

Hinrich is on a roll....

[blkroadrunners]

Not lookin good.

[Chomag]

Damn, Spurs just refuse to play all of 48 minutes.

[timvp]

:vomit:

[Brazil]

kirk 8-13

[Libri]

Bulls 9-0 run

[ElNono]

You guys bitch about RJ taking threes, now he attacks the rim and you guys are not happy either? Geez.

I'm happy... Just wish he would do it more than twice a game...

[Spurs Brazil]

Bulls 9-0 run, all started with Blair forcing a wild shot

[timtonymanu]

God this team is just so gutless.

Anyone can beat them.

[ElNono]

Blair looks gassed...

[Ice009]

So what do the Spurs do now? They just look so bad.

Energy is shot.

Body language of the so called leaders on the team is pathetic.

Would anyone say David Robinson showed this kinda of body language out there?

[Duncan21kid]

is it just me or does everyone believe that every time a team sets a screen againts the spurs it most definately leads to a bucket ?

[timtonymanu]

Bring in Dice. As much as I hate on him, he's doing alot better than Duncan and Blair tonight.

[45 bank shot]

Rj is killing our momentum in every possible column

[Chieflion]

Whoever wins that Texas lottery doesn't need to work in his entire life. Looks like everything is bigger in Texas.

[Chomag]

Hairston sitting behind the bench is priceless. Damn it Pop.

[angelbelow]

Still no Bonner or Ian huh

[ElNono]

Go Tim

[DesignatedT]

Jefferson is definitely a problem. hes not what this team needs.

if there is anyway we can dump him for tmac then i would try my hardest to make that work.

this team also needs another big (haywood,camby) to help anchor the paint and go back to what has won us 4 championships.

its pathetic that everyone here sees it and the coaching staff doesnt.

[angelbelow]

Nice Timmy

[Ice009]

Super play tp!!!!!!!!

[SCdac]

Wow. A defensive adjustment. Who would have ever thought....

[Chieflion]

Cool Pop. Stick with the Larry Brown pressure defense.

[angelbelow]

Dice!

[galvatron3000]

So what do the Spurs do now? They just look so bad.

Energy is shot.

Body language of the so called leaders on the team is pathetic.

Would anyone say David Robinson showed this kinda of body language out there?

What did everyone expect, we beat sub 500 teams and the boards went crazy and when someone pointed that out people got offended now the season has gotten even closer to the half way mark and I guess people see nothing they like. Look at what we put on the court. Play some more people that are young. That's what we should have been doing. Ian and Hairston should have been implemented throughoout the season, 10 or 15 minutes early in the season. Finely is done and we had Bonner last year, not happening.

[vander]

holy shit, Manu is shooting only 40% from the field this year :wow:wow

there's only 6 qualified* players that are worse



*on pace to make 300 buckets

[timvp]

Manu you have to hit that.........

[Brazil]

tp giving us a little bit of fresh air

[Ice009]

Alright Manu can't hit shit. Maybe the people saying he is an awful shooter now are right.

[angelbelow]

Damn shame Manu, would have been a big one.

[Spurs Brazil]

WTF Manu, wake up

[DPG21920]

Manu is playing like absolute shit. Terrible shooting and nothing else.

[timvp]

This group is bringing it :tu

[ElNono]

Well, were finally playing defense

[timtonymanu]

everytime we have a chance to take the lead, someone misses. wtf is our shooters?

[Chieflion]

Looks like the PF is hurting Noah.

[angelbelow]

Nice defensive sequence there

[angelbelow]

Damn Dice.. back to back misses

[timvp]

McDyess fading on his jumpers and coming up short.

[Spurs Brazil]

Dice short on Js in the 2n half, his legs are gone

[DPG21920]

How many times are the Spurs going to trap Kirk and let him split?

[poop]

how quickly people forget about David...against Houston and Utah he was known as the softest superstar big in the nba. great player obviously but you guys pretending he was a hardcore military machine or something are WAY off base haha.

[ElNono]

'Money' Dice ran out of money... Time to go back to Tim...

[Ice009]

Dave went through Annapolis where his mental and physical fortitude was tested on a daily basis

These guys are a bunch of jock primadonas since they were in diapers

Kinda of an unfair comparison...

Sure David is on another level, but it's not that hard to show some leadership out there and stand tall. I don't know if Tim, Tony and Manu realize how big it is for their teammates to see then looking all down and out of it on the court. It doesn't help anyone at all when they hang their heads after bad plays.

[timvp]

Blair needs to play smarter this stint.

[poop]

super athlet Atlanta is next.

RIP

[Chieflion]

Cool. Can we take the lead?

[Libri]

Alright Mason!

[angelbelow]

Blair hasnt done much this quarter.

[Brazil]

Mase to the rescue !!!!!

[Spurs Brazil]

Mason Jr 33333333333333333333333333

[timvp]

TP and Mason have great chemistry.

[vander]

my god this team needs Matt Bonner in there so bad

[ffadicted]

I love that Bogans isn't playing, RMJ deserves to prove himself

[poop]

haha its hating one second then praise the next from everybody

[Chieflion]

Wade misses 2 free throws to lose the game for the Heat against the Cavs. 92-91.

[angelbelow]

Nice shot by Mase

[SCdac]

This is a game I wouldn't have minded Ratliff getting some burn, if we're not going to play Bogans or Bonner, and Duncan isn't having the greatest outing.

[angelbelow]

Wade misses 2 free throws to lose the game for the Heat against the Cavs. 92-91.

Thanks for the update, just won 40 bucks from that game!

[timtonymanu]

haha its hating one second then praise the next from everybody

our team is bipolar.

[phxspurfan]

my god this team needs Matt Bonner in there so bad

:lol

[timvp]

By rule, that was a flagrant.

[ffadicted]

Ginoooooooooooooooooooooo

[blkroadrunners]

Manu for the lead!

[Libri]

Manuuuuuuuu 3!

[Refocus]

Haha.. nice 3.

[Spurs Brazil]

Manu tres!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ffadicted]

Gino will you marry me? :smokin

[Ice009]

Nice fight back Spurs.

[Supergirl]

Manu shooting poorly but playing with a lot of heart.

Blair is a beast. Love that kid's hustle.

Spurs playing hard tonight.

[angelbelow]

Manu!

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs up 71-70 after the 3rd

[Refocus]

#1 duncan fan from china lol

[Chieflion]

Memphis is screwing with Orlando 85-84. Good shit by the Grizzlies.

[boutons_deux]

spurs of have won 2 of 3 qtrs, rare occurrence.

[ElNono]

Can we put together one good quarter?

[Supergirl]

FYI Blair has as many OFFENSIVE reb as he does pts (8). That's hustle, baby.

[cnyc3]

I wonder if that was rapper, dude with the "duncan #1 fan from china" sign :lol

[OldSilentHill]

Cant believe it, we won the 3rd.

Great game by Parker so far.

[45 bank shot]

letz go spurs, push it to the end

[Pauleta14]

I hope Pop keeps Jefferson on the bench...

[phxspurfan]

Way to finish the quarter strong fellas. It took effort.

[bigdog]

Parker has looked good on offense, but on defense he looks gassed.

[ffadicted]

FYI Blair has as many OFFENSIVE reb as he does pts (8). That's hustle, baby.

What a beast, if only the putbacks would've gone in for him :(

[Pauleta14]

Tony is the one who has played the most of both teams (30min)!!!
I hope he doesn't run out of gas in the end!!!

As long as Manu is Manu, it's fine...

[Libri]

Dice with a clutch shot.

[SCdac]

Manu is amazing. Didn't even take a dribble on that play. Jab step, Jab step, fake, etc. Dudes a gamer for sure.... McDyess jumper falling.

[Spurs Brazil]

Big shot Dice

[Ice009]

[Spurs Brazil]

Tie game

[DPG21920]

Spurs have kept Rose away from the rim, but the dude is just making some sweet net music.

[angelbelow]

uhoh..

[Shastafarian]

SAT can't miss

[45 bank shot]

finally got a lead, we just gave it up like that...

[Ice009]

Where going to need TP here in the 4th quarter. I hope he has something left.

[Supergirl]

ok, time to bring Timmy and Tony back in.

[timtonymanu]

Im a fan of Derrick Rose but he's pissing me off in this game. Sick my ass.

[ffadicted]

:lol

One unreal turnaround 3, drawing a charge on the other end, taking the kid to school in a play after, forcing another turn over right after

That's why they're a distant memory, he does it when it matters most

[Pauleta14]

Parker has looked good on offense, but on defense he looks gassed.

His job is REALY tough on D!!!
I mean, the opposite coach knows that they have to make him work!!!
Hinrich was running like mad...

[phxspurfan]

B.Miller and Blair do not like each other

[Supergirl]

Derrick Rose is 10-16 on jumpers...that's a lucky ass game.
