I heard on B&B that Gordon will be starting. Now get Tyrus and Deng a wakeup call and bench these two. Thomas is 6'9" and scores a point he should do that by accident. Big LSU dummie they're givin' you the jumper 'cause you can't make the jumper.Thabo on the pines 'cause he can't score and Noah just sets the meanest moving pick in the NBA.The Circus is in town now from Paxson on down these guys look like they have never played together ......Never!
Walt, here's the problem. The Bulls don't have many forwards on the roster to begin with.
Ben Gordon may have scored 31 last night, but defense isn't #7's strong suit by any means. If there's anyone who needs to step up, it's Luol Deng, who's trying to adjust to new head coach Vinny Del Negro's up-tempo style, and he's struggled with his game. The rap against Tyrus Thomas is laziness, while Andres Nocioni plays hard, but tends to get into foul trouble. While I'm not about to push the panic button, this season could get away from the Bulls if these undisciplined guys continue to turn the ball over and settle for outside shots.
