Anybody know why Rose played so little in the 4th last night? He ended up with 26 minutes, but with 7 players dressed (hunter doesnt count), he should see way more time than that. just Vinny holding back the future of the franchise again?

yeah frankly...hinrich has been outplaying rose lately IMO....not a knock on Rose, he's young and will have some growing pains, and Kirk is a pretty darn good player when healthy...Rose will certainly be the better player in the future but IMO Hinrich has been playing really well over the last 2 weeks or so

This Bulls team isn't a top-tier team by any means, but they are MUCH more versatile than they were a week ago. Let's see if they can close this Pacers game out.

lol, looks like not so much.

They came all the way back and should of blown out Indiana, except they decided to miss shots as well and let the Pacers hang around before pulling away.

 

No energy in middle quarters.

Just a poor overall game. They should blow out the Pacers without Granger and Dunleavy. Hinrich got WAY too many minutes and did nothing well. Ford schooled him all through the 4th. I liked what all the new guys brought. Lots of versatility. This is a deep team right now. And as good as Gordon has been, he forces up the most retarded shots in the world.

Well.. I guess not today. T.J. Ford absolutely PWNed Hinrich. Nice game from the new guys though. Brad struggled a bit with his 15-17 foot jumper but he'll get it going. Salmons really played well and even Tim Thomas had a nice game. It was not enough though.

Still, the team looked discombombulated at times out there, which is to be expected when you have as many new faces as they have. Would have been a nice road win though.

 

Yeah I expect some communcation issues and an occasional discombobulated appearance from the Bulls the next handful of games until the new guys can blend in, but today is still a TERRIBLE loss. Indiana isn't a good team as is, and to lose to them without Granger is awful.

Indiana is actually the only team that has beat all 3 of Boston, Cleveland, and LA this season.

They had Granger in those games though, and they are still in dead last in the division. They are definitely a hard team to figure out with wins like those, but overall they are a bad team, and you should not lose to them especially with their best player out.

Gotta say I'm impressed with Rafer Alston so far.

 

He's a good distributor of the ball, and a good defensive PG.

 

Didn't think we could beat Boston or Cleveland when Jameer went down, but I think we have a chance if we have no more injuries from here.

Yep they love him already.

 

And D'Antoni will too if he keeps shooting at that wondeful percentage. Lee and Robinson are carrying that team right now.

yeah it was. It is probably going to be a shot that will be remembered for generations. It would be for sure if it came from Kobe or Lebron.

 

just the fact that Iggy knocked it out of his hands, then Harris has about .5 seconds to catch it again and shoot it was unbelievable...

Yeah it was quite unbelievable.

 

Harris should win the most improved player award this season also.

 

He's carrying what is a pretty bad team to a decent enough record while they wait for the 2010 off-season.
