southsider2k5 Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 03:17 AM) Looking back that was nonsensical to say, but I would like to see Pau and Noah split up more. Having Noah on the floor to protect Pau makes a lot sense on the defensive and rebounding sides of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 @AlexKennedyNBA: DeMar DeRozan has a torn left adductor longus tendon. There is no timetable for his return at the moment. Huge loss for Toronto. QUOTE (bmags @ Nov 29, 2014 -> 03:06 PM) Crap news for Raps. DeRozan out for indefinite period of Time. Torn tendon in ankle. From what I am reading, it's the thigh/hip area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Everytime I watch a Bulls game I am astonished at how much Jimmy butlers game has improved. Both since he was drafted, and from last year to this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thxfrthmmrs Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Mirotic has been playing really well as of late. It's going to tough to get everyone enough playing time when Taj comes back. But it's a good problem to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to tough to get everyone enough playing time when Taj comes back. But it's a good problem to have. He's really turned on his rebounding. It would be great if Niko and Taj could man down the forward positions together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of those euro moves, lol I mean, it's incredible the leap he took. I'm kind of glad that 5 fouls in 4 minutes game happened, it seemed to flip a light switch on that he can't play if he can't stay in the game. I feel like he's stopped going for the steals which were causing him a lot of hand fouls. That, and suddenly he's not getting pushed around on the glass. He's doing a great job getting contested, tough rebounds. Offensively, love everything he's doing. Really fun to watch him now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are like the Redskins of the NBA, they just are mismatched, Older name players, and a bunch of filler around them.

It's going to tough to get everyone enough playing time when Taj comes back. But it's a good problem to have. Let Taj get healthy. Take your time and make sure you really limit guys minutes to keep Gasol / Noah fresh and maximize Nik's growing opportunities. Nik is going to be a star, imo.

MexSoxFan#1 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 (edited) Almost unbelievable how well this team was built after being shot down by Melo over the summer. This team is better for NOT landing Melo. Not enough credit is given to the Bulls FO in my opinion. A healthy Bulls team is easily the best East team and a legit title contender.

Have you noticed that there has been a few "Melo: I almost chose the Bulls" articles in the last month? You know that guy(while swimming in his scrooge mcduck money pool) is kicking himself watching the Bulls succeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 http://grantland.com/the-triangle/searchin...erence-problem/ I'd hate this (see bulls mention).

Since the west is better then the east, I wouldn't like it, but in general, I'd like having more late time games, but thats cause I am selfish and live on the west, haha.
