iamshack Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Tyson Chandler gets called for a foul basically any time he engages another player defensively. I don't know how he didn't lose his s*** during the game today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bighurt52235 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 I sat courtside at the Mavericks v. Blazers game today. Absolutely the most incredible sporting event I've ever attended. Brandon Roy, "The Natural". He ain't finished! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Apr 23, 2011 -> 08:22 PM) Do you mean in terms of the style of defense they play? Because both of those teams were much better defensively than Indiana this year. Indiana was a middle of the pack defensive team. Style. They are physical dirty team. They are literally beating up Rose. He isn't going to see that, well unless we see Howard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quin Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 So, Noah goes crazy. Boozer does good (15 and 13 is good) Deng gets 16. Rose only gets 15. That injury had to be bad if he only got 4 FTs and shot so many 3s. He just needs to rest up so he can go full strength back home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took him 15 shots to get those 15 pts, he added nothing defensively, and turned it over 4 times. Then when you add in the bunnies he missed and he hurt the Bulls again today.

In hindsight I actually like Bosh less than I did last summer. I really didn't like Boozer last summer, and he's been pretty much exactly what I expected.

Soxbadger Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 (edited) Eh Bosh can hit a jumper which is really what the Bulls need out of the PF (on offense). Some one who can space the floor so that the defense cant just collapse the paint. Edited April 24, 2011 by Soxbadger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the last 5 years we've wanted a guy who can play in the low post so that the defense had to collapse the paint and so that the Bulls didn't just rely on mid-range jumpers.

Steve9347 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 D-Rose is in a walking boot and highly questionable for Game 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 24, 2011 -> 03:14 PM) D-Rose is in a walking boot and highly questionable for Game 5. KC Derrick Rose wore a walking boot on Sunday at the Berto Center and headed to an MRI exam on Sunday afternoon, which the team expects merely to confirm his sprained left ankle. Coach Tom Thibodeau said the walking boot was a precautionary measure to stabilize the ankle, which Rose sprained late in the first quarter of Saturday's loss to the Pacers. Rose returned and played 43 minutes, 27 seconds overall. The Bulls didn't practice on Sunday. They watched film as a team and did individual shooting. When reporters were granted access to the gym, Rose sat watching film with Thibodeau and then left for his exam without talking to the media. "He's fine," Thibodeau said. "He's going to have his ankle checked and hopefully he'll be ready. When we ask him, he says he's fine. (Athletic trainer) Fred (Tedeschi) said he has a little soreness. But Derrick said he's fine. He said the swelling isn't bad." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 (edited) lol, CP3 gets a T for taunting Kobe after blowing past him on a layup, but Kobe gets nothing for literally jumping up and down and yelling at the refs on his way up the court two plays earlier. NBA officiating... NO goes into the half up 4 on the Lakers, despite Paul not scoring much. They shut down Kobe, holding him to 0/7 shooting and 0 points.

nitetrain8601 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 23, 2011 -> 09:01 PM) Neither team has the big-men depth the Pacers have. McRoberts, Hibbert, and Foster (hell, even Hansbrough), as challenged as they are offensively, are guys who can play good enough defense and prevent Rose from having a easy time at the basket. Outside of Garnett, the Celtics interior is quite weak on the defensive end (especially if they don't have Shaq). Bosh is not a strong defender, Joel Anthony is a joke, and Big Z doesn't really pose much of a threat on the inside either for Miami. The Heat got a nice matchup in Philadelphia, who have no guys that can play a tough inside game. If the Heat got the Indiana draw, they would probably be in a similar situation to the Bulls. Boston still has very strong schemes which is where they excel. Allen was not known as a strong defender and neither was Pierce before Thibs. The scheme is what makes them. What you did for Boston and Miami, I can very easily do for the Bulls. Bogans sucks period Rose is still a bad defender Deng is super strong Boozer sucks Noah is strong Brewer is strong Korver sucks Gibson is good In this day in age, with zone defense, it makes no sense to go up and down a player list and say they suck because schemes can hide anyone's bad defense. BTW, I suggest people look at the Hornets game and see what Chris Paul is doing. The way he directs every player and knows every spot and literally points out weaknesses to his players and points of attack are great. I won't even get started on his numbers.

I don't know what happened to Turkoglu. I mean, I thought he would be improved in Orlando's system, but he's stunk as bad if not worse than he did in PHX and Toronto. They never tried to make JRich a focal point, Gilbert sucks and Dwight's going to leave since they're handicapped by the cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
