WHarris1 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Holy s***... This guy is gonna be fantastic. For anyone that has been watching the last few Bulls games, and especially tonight, you will agree. Tonight he has 27 points, but amazingly 12 in the 4th the put the Bulls up big. His last shot was incredible. Turn around jumper as the shot clock ran out, he drained it. Wow. I Ben. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 If Gordon can shoot from the outside on a consistant basis, the Bulls will be in great shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Love how he showed up Sprewell at the end. Tyson and Eddy were awesome on KG. Made him shoot offbalance fade aways all game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodAsGould Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 lol the coaches didnt seem to happy about that shot at the end neither did the announcers but regardless great night by gordon and good job by chandler getting 16 rebounds battling with garnett.

whitesoxfan99 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Hopefully people realize that he is not and never will be a PG and he should be left at the SG where he can be a very good scorer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan4life_2007 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 31 points on 13 of 24 shooting! I must say i've been proven wrong. It didn't look like Gordon could hang the first few weeks. He's really stepped it up this month. Chandler had another great game. Didn't score much, but he had 16 rebounds. That's what I want from him. The offense is a bonus as far as i'm concerned.

danman31 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Way to say the Bulls won guys...99-88 Bulls did win for those of you who were as lost as me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 How do you all feel about the last shot of the game that gordon made when the bulls were clearly gonna win? The crowd was egging him on to make it get the hundred i think or maybe they wanted him to get over thirty? Well at least he got one of the two.

The game was over, no need to rub it in. I gurantee you the Wolves are gonna remember that the next time the two teams play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiff Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 I wanted to say it, intimidated by all the Bulls downers the first couple months, but Gordon is both a leader AND a shooter. Until you let him fluorish in both roles he will be unhappy. At UConn they gave him the free reign to shoot with 32 seconds on the clock if he felt it necessary. That's where he needs to be with Chicago. This past Thursday UConn showed how much they are lacking a floor leader like Gordon, their fill-in PG dribbed the ball off his leg with like 30 seconds left.

But i agree it was kinda of a silly thing to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Long - term there's still doubts on Gordon though. What's his best position? PG or SG? And should he come off the becnh and provide instant offense ALA Bobby Jackson? At least now the Bulls seem to have settled on a good lineup and are getting consistent production from Tyson Chandler.

Yo Dbaho, I got 20 Bucks on your Magic tonight... They better not let me down. By the way, will Hill be back for tonight's game against the Lakers? And what's the status on Kelvin Cato?

whitesoxfan99 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 What's his best position? PG or SG? SG, end of story. Ben Gordon is not a PG. He can handle the ball but he isn't a guy you want setting up an offense, let him play SG and score and he will be a very effective player.

By the way, will Hill be back for tonight's game against the Lakers? And what's the status on Kelvin Cato? Cato's definitely out. Injury time is meant to be 10 days to 3 weeks from the Denver game which was earlier in the week. Hill is a different story though, should be right for tonight's game but this is what I got from the Orlando Sentinel. F Grant Hill (sore right shin) will be a game-time decision. He missed his first game of the season Friday night against the Golden State Warriors in Oakland. If Hill cannot play, F Stacey Augmon will make his second straight start and third of the season. Should be a great game though, and I expect Stevie Franchise to step up again if Hill misses. Dwight Howard needs to dominate on the boards though.

Are you seriously asking about Kelvin Cato, one of the biggest f***in duds in the association. Like they said on TNT a couple weeks back, after Cato signed his huge contract with the Rockets, he went shopping, and never came back.

Chisoxfn Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Fantastic Bulls game. That was so fun to watch. I still figured the whole time they'd find a way too blow it. Really surprised they didn't. Gordon is probably the best shooter on the team at this point (screw Piatkowski, the guy blows ass on anything but a spot up jumper). Bulls are making strides, they just got to work on cutting out the stretches of awfulness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like they said on TNT a couple weeks back, after Cato signed his huge contract with the Rockets, he went shopping, and never came back. Kelvin Cato may be overpaid, but in the last 2 seasons (counting this one so far) he has gotten back to some of his old form. I think he's the main reason Houston are struggling so much, Taylor and Howard can't rebound or defend for s*** which kills Yao down in the low post. I couldn't care less how much Cato scores, the Magic has other options to do that, in Francis, Mobley, Hill and Hedo, all I'm concerned with from Kelvin is to get about 10 boards a game and 2 blocks every night and so far he's doing that fine. He's the best center the Magic have had since Shaq left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
