derrick looked ready to pop 4th quarter the other night. he was startin to feel it, and his body was finally starting to gel

look for a big game from him tonight. this might be when most people finally realize this guys career is still in tact and he can still lead us to a ring.

Minutes officially increased tonight too!

I want the 3 seed. We've struggled with Washington in the past and I think we steamroll Milwaukee. Looks like we're going to need this victory over Atlanta tonight to secure that positioning.

horrible start to this hawks game... both sides

Not good so far. Not good.

Horford is abusing Gibson right now.

derrick is getting abused too... however he is playing without fear and honestly im glad just to see that

I know this goes for most of us, but Rose needs better ball control.

my god what the fuck is going on. its like its 45 degrees in the building. how the fuck are we only down by 6?

Poor Dunleavey. I like him but the guy can't complete a fast break to save his life. Nice that we're only down five here heading into the 2nd quarter.

his mind is faster than his body right now. not saying his body isnt capable, but the coordination is still off. not surprising though, he really needs a couple months to hone it in. thats what i love about basketball though, its just as much skill as it is athleticism.

i dont think he will do much in the 1st or 2nd round because of this... but if we can make it past that he should have had enough time to get it together and yes i do think we have a chance. but he obviously cant do it alone and if this team plays like they are tonight were not even beating the bucks

he shouldnt have looked back for an out. you got the lead on the fast break off a steal. if you hesitate to score just pull the ball down and bring it back out. stop thinking.

Do we really need to hear from Richard Branson?

it does bother me kyle korver never gelled with this team but is amazing on the hawks. i ponder what it means about the bulls

I was just wondering the same thing. It had to be the effort that was demanded on the defensive end. With Atlanta, he's just shoosting.

whats wrong with him? i like that guy.

maybe. i dont know. tyson chandler, jeff teague, and theres more i cant pin it right now but these guys are raised here but flower elsewhere. not sure if its the bulls thickheadedness or its just the way the league is setup and its common to start on one team but peak on another....

korver is more troubling because he was a proven commodity that couldnt do shit here- like ben wallace and all the others that came here. but you might be right maybe the bulls run things their way and not to fit its players

There's nothing wrong with him, but you know it was going to be awkward. If you're going to interview him, why would you ask him his thoughts about the team?

CSN broadcast? i missed it... i was getting more beer. yes that is an excuse

Gotta give Atlanta credit, they run a smooth system and it seems everyone has bought in.

Rose not starting the 2nd half.

Damn! Bulls getting worked over here at the start of the 3rd. No word on Rose yet.

Brooks decision making is killing them
