QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 4, 2011 -> 11:03 PM) He was not real bad. Real bad is scoring 5 points on awful shooting with no assist, no rebounds, etc. Guy put up points, assists, and shot a decent enough percentage. He just took a lot of bad 3's and had some stupid TO's. 37% on 27 shots is not decent enough. He had a bad game offensively but the Bulls were tremendous defensively so it didn't matter.

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ May 4, 2011 -> 10:19 PM) when theres a rebound opportunity he goes "GET THAT SH*T!!!!!!!!!" i love that I don't. How about he keeps his mouth shut when he grabs an uncontested rebound and actually contributes. I hate literally everything about Boozer.

How many freaking times has Boozer been owned at the rim tonight? Wow he is just awful. Great defense tonight thankfully because the Bulls continue to look lost on offense.

Carlos Boozer has been called for like 5 defensive 3 second calls in the playoffs. Ridiculous.

Good close to that quarter for the Bulls.

Marvin Williams and Josh Smith are keeping the Bulls in the game.

Josh Smith needs to have a coach tell him he isn't allowed to shoot 3s. What a stupid basketball player and Marvin Williams is one of the all time wort draft choices. Not because he is awful but because the pick made no sense at the time with the Hawks needing a PG and makes even less sense now with how good Paul and Williams became.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 4, 2011 -> 07:17 PM) Boozer looks a step slower than the step slow he's been. Rose is off to an awful start as well.

QUOTE (b-Rye @ May 4, 2011 -> 04:16 PM) Hmmm Dodgers benched this guy in 2009, we trade 2 pitching prospects for him and have him starting and leading off for us. We then let Scotty Pods go (who sucked at defense, but who could atleast hit and steal bases.) You are the man Kenny Williams. Pods would been at 1/3 the cost and we'd have 2 more pitchers in AAA. I'm not going to defend Pierre because he sucks and I never wanted him on the Sox but Podsednik was also awful and if you haven't noticed Pods isn't even in the MLB right now which says a little bit about his talent. Pods was horrific on the basepaths during his last tenure with the White Sox (not this year Juan Pierre bad but truly dreadful). And the farthest I'll go to compliment Pods as a hitter is to say he wasn't terrible. The real culprit behind our awful LFs is that our manager likes awful left handed hitters with no power who have "speed" (even though they kill us on the base paths). Get rid of Ozzie and maybe we can get a real LF.

This isn't directed at anyone here, but I am going to smack the next person I hear mention Rondo as one of the elite PGs along side Rose, Paul, Williams and Westbrook. He doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as any of those guys.

QUOTE (Felix @ May 2, 2011 -> 08:40 PM) The Hawks take a lot of really stupid shots. Josh Smith and Crawford are the kings of that. Smith in particular should be going to the basket all the time but settles for a ton of jumpers. Nice to see Boozer not be completely worthless in that quarter btw.

Aside from Eddie House, has a player playing as awful basketball as Carlos Boozer is right now ever talked so much s***? Great job by the bench and Deng in the first half they played terrific basketball.

It is truly incredible how poor Boozer's defensive awareness is.

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 05:28 PM) I called an audible at the theatre and saw it instead of Hanna. Fun action but the melodrama and acting is awful. Not too mention it was full of jackasses who don't know how to act in a theatre. I'm shocked that a movie starring Paul Walker and Vin Diesel had terrible acting.

Hate this pick, white defensive backs suck.

Hate this pick, white defensive backs suck.

I'm sure this has been commented on but I still absolutely hate that the draft is spread out over 3 days. I loved when it was all day on Saturday. Also, ESPN has ruined some of the intrigue by showing the guys celebrating before the pick is announced. Takes away a lot of the drama and mystique of the draft.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 28, 2011 -> 10:26 PM) Is that who he wanted them to take? Oh, and if the Lions find a way to get Bowers, that would be comical. It would be but they already have solid defensive ends and have some pretty big needs in the secondary at OL. Doubt they would take him but that would be tremendous value just like Fairley so you never know and if you have a healthy Bowers, Williams, KVB, Suh and Fairley your corners become a lot less important.

Congratulations Liuget, not sure the 3-4 is the best fit for him but happy to see him go in the 1st round.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Apr 28, 2011 -> 08:23 PM) Defend the pass by rushing the passer, I guess. I like that pick for the Lions in the sense that it will make their team better, but you have to get someone to protect Stafford and you need some people in the secondary that don't suck, don't you? Yes, but Fairley is a beast and when that type of talent falls to you at 13 I think it is generally a mistake to pass and you can usually find solid corners in the 2nd and 3rd rounds. Beast Dts? Not so much.

The Lions have the most talented pair of DTs in NFL history. Holy crap.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 28, 2011 -> 03:01 PM) I was mainly speaking on how much the scouts, fans etc crapped on him prior to the draft, yet Cam Newton who wasnt as successful and never had a year as good at Tebow did and has the same mechanical issues is a consensus #1 pick. This just simply isn't true. Newton had a higher QB rating this year than Tebow did in any of his three years as a starter (their passing numbers were very similar, but Newton did it with less weapons around him and from the games I watched without near as many shovel passes or one yard completions that his receivers then broke for TDs), and was a much more effective runner than Tebow was in any of Tebow's three years as a starter.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 28, 2011 -> 11:13 AM) If the Bears don't draft O-Line with their top pick, I murder someone. I'd actually be fine with taking a DT if the value isn't there at OL at pick 29. They need to address the OL in the draft and FA but you also shouldn't reach just because you have a need.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 28, 2011 -> 10:31 AM) Ibaka is going to just continue to get better. He's showing nice development and the upside is there with his athletismism. The upside of that entire team is tremendous. Durant is 22, Ibaka is 21, Westbrook is 22, Harden is 21, and Perkins (assuming they keep him long term) is the elder statesman at 26. Out of the guys in their rotation only Collison and Nazr Mohammed are older than 26. Cole Aldrich and Mullens are looking like busts but if either of them can develop into a good center that team is set for a very long run at the top.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 27, 2011 -> 07:03 PM) Sometime before I die a highly touted White Sox prospect will come up and dominate from day one. I'm thinking 2018. They didn't dominate but Konerko (if you count him as Sox prospect), Lee and Ordonez were all good pretty much right off the bat. Ordonez wasn't great his rookie year but was damn good from his 2nd year on.
