DBAHO Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Dec 5, 2006 -> 04:56 PM) Bulls to 8-9, and with this schedule for the next month....they could make some SERIOUS hay. And DBAHO is happy, Jameer Nelson hits a late 3 to win at Arco and pad their best record in the East. Yeah we're becoming experts in the close games, I don't think we've lost a game that's been decided under about 5 points or something like that yet. We win in Indiana tomorrow, that's a 5-1 roadtrip. And if Dwight Howard isn't an all - star this year, well I don't know what to say. I've been impressed by the Bulls since Nocioni went into the starting lineup though. Him and Deng are providing a nice 1-2 scoring punch for you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him and Deng are providing a nice 1-2 scoring punch for you guys. Well, they are the 2 best players on the team, so it's nice they are both starting and bum ass P.J. Brown has gone away. With the Bulls amazingly easy schedule the next month, they can make some serious ground. If only we had kept J.R. Smith, he'd be a nice guy to start at the 2 (6'6 and can score, very young) with Hinrich at point, and Gordon coming off the bench. But gotta have those character guys only..... <_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Dec 6, 2006 -> 10:33 PM) Bulls looking good tonight. This schedule is beautiful, they are really starting to figure things out. With the emergence of Nocioni and Deng as scorers this year, the offense just looks really good right now, and the defense is starting to catch up (and defense is where I expected early struggles, all the new guys had to learn each others tendencies and how to communicate).

Minny I keep hearing wants to dump Garnett, and Denver has J.R. Smith (thanks Pax!!) and Carmelo Anthony lighting it up right now. And with Boston, he'd be heading into the same type sorry ass situation. But then again.....those are the 3 best candidates, but none of them make much sense to me IMO. I'll guess he ends up in Minnesota though, with James playing the 1 and Davis the 3, then AI at the 2 and Garnett doing the big boy work. That's pretty formidable. Oh, and Luol Deng has finally realized he's THE scorer on the Bulls. If not for the enraging blown lead against Sac-Town early, we'd be undefeated at home. Good to see the UC advantage coming back.

Balta1701 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Dec 9, 2006 -> 11:22 AM) Stars Line Up to Make Pleas for Iverson By The Associated Press 12.09.06, 1:39 PM ET Once word got out that the Allen Iverson-Chris Webber pairing was nearing an end, other stars let it be known they wanted to be part of the next 1-2 punch. With the Philadelphia 76ers apparently set to deal Iverson, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce hope their teams emerge as trading partners. The Boston Celtics reportedly were involved in trade talks with Philadelphia over the summer, and Pierce would love it if those discussions were reopened. "We can mesh well together," Pierce said. "Any time you have two guys at that caliber play and they play together, then things will work out. It would definitely provide some excitement. To get a caliber of player like Allen Iverson, who would turn that down? It would be great to get him." Garnett wants him, too. He and Iverson both have been NBA MVPs, but neither has won a title. With Minnesota considered one of the teams that is capable of making a run at Iverson, Garnett hopes his team will go for it. "Bring it on, I love 'The Answer,'" Garnett said. "We welcome A.I. with open arms. Where's Kevin McHale?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather have Howard, but it looked like Okafor gave him some trouble for sure. I drafted Okafor in the 5th round of my fantasy league, and after 4-5 weeks, traded him for Tim Duncan. Needless to say, I'm very happy with that trade now. The thing that kills Okafor is this. He has problems putting weight on, because if he does, it's going to put more stress on that bum ankle of his. And that's unlike a Howard, who started out about 240lbs IIRC, and he's now about 275. Okafor's about 258. But basically every team is double teaming Dwight down low every time now. He's got to adjust to it like Tim Duncan has, and basically cut down on the TO's, and make better passes out to the guys that are open. And that's where a J.J Redick could be very important in the upcoming years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
