Quin Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 05:41 PM) If Skip Bayless made a watermelon and fried chicken joke about an African-American person, how long do you think it would take ESPN to suspend him? About 3 seconds? See: Limbaugh, Rush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I think we might be overreacting a bit -- he basically condemned every person ever in saying that he thinks being gay is bad just like all sexual contact before marriage is bad. Since gays can't be married, all of their sexual activity is therefore bad. He stated a pretty honest version of Christian views on social life. That could have been tinged with far more hate than it was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepyWhiteSox Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I don't agree with kerr at all. 1. NO, he does NOT "owe" his teammates anything. 2. Comparing his injury with incredibly less severe ones is beyond ridiculous. Bulls management is doing what's best for the organization, especially long-term. And not necessarily over any sort of affection towards Rose. I see it as a joint decision, as it should be. The backlash has been silly. And speaking of kerr, I'm thankful for his contributions to the Bulls those few championship years as I'm sure he is too since he probably doesn't get some of the opportunities he's gotten without that exposure. But he was a horrible GM and is a crappy announcer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he was a horrible GM and is a crappy announcer. Kerr has been with Rose on this the whole time. He is now saying that the other Bulls are out there playing hurt, and giving it all they can. If Rose is no longer feeling hurt, but it's only mental, then he needs to help his teammates and play a few minutes. I think that's a fair comment.

thxfrthmmrs Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 One of the less underrated aspect of Jimmy Butler's game is he is a smart basketball player. He rarely makes mistakes on offense and defense. He is doing a fine job of slowing down D Will on defense right now and taking it strong to the hole on offense and making all the right passes. If he keeps on working that jump shot in the off season, he will be the best 2 guard option we can possibly have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 The thing is, it wasn't even the backcourt play that hurt the Bulls tonight. The frontline was just non-existent out there. The defense was awful and no rebounding presence at all. You just can't let a team like the Nets out rebound you. That's just silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxsoxsoxsox Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) Luol Deng is 1-for-18 from 3-point range this series. Guess his ankle is bothering him.

Quin Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Game 6 is Derrick's chance to be the hero if he wants it. But he'll wait. He doesn't want to come back this round, even if it means advancing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the least, it is distracting him I know guys are beat up, and actually playing, but a lot of it had nothing to do with that. I am talking positional rebounding. There were way too many times that there were zero red shirts on the defensive or offensive boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
