Bucks don't play defense.

Rose will have his first 40+ game of his career.

Rose has a little cracker guarding him tonight. He's yet to take him to the hole. Why? Dunk on whitey. All night long. C'mon Derrick!!!!

Is this game not being televised outside the Chicago era?

I thought it was on WGN but apparently not on my WGN. How are you supposed to build a fan base if no one can see the games?

NBA rules. Bulls games, on WGN, can only be national on weekends. I think that includes Friday games.

It's cuz ESPN and TNT have games Tuesday through Thursday and they don't want another game to compete with them. TNT and ESPN pay big money to the NBA so I get why they have this rule.

It's not the Bulls. Reinsdorf would love to have all WGN games be national. He'd be able to make more money himself.

The Bulls used to have every WGN game broadcast on the Superstation until '92 or '93 I beleive. Then the NBA put restrictions on that.

That makes sense from the Bulls stand point, but forgive me being pissed since I don't see any games on TNT or ESPN; pro games at least.

Maybe it's Tuesday and Friday for ESPN. TNT has Thursday games.

There is a game on NBA TV right now. That's part of the WGN rule too. NBA TV has national games.

So much for my 40 point Rose prediction. He only has 2 points at half time. But he's only taken 2 shots!!!! Shoot more Derrick!!!!

Vinny needs to tell Gooden to stop shooting so much. That fucker loves taking that out side jumper. Yes, he's open but there is a reason for that. The other team wants you to shoot it cuz you're gonna miss it!!!!

Gooden never swings that ball around or looks to pass. He wants to get his fuckin' shots. That's all he cares about.

The NBA should probably lighten up on some of those silly scheduling rules, they aren't exactly the NFL in terms of popularity. I also find it pretty silly that Christmas will be their first nationally televised games on basic cable of the year. The NBA is a decent product that is marketed poorly.

Larry Hughes is just like Gooden. He just wants to jack up shots. All he cares about is getting his.

Rose and Gordon should be the only guys taking shots late in the game. Maybe Deng. That's it.

Tonight's game, won by Milwaukee 97-90, aired only in the Chicago area on WGN's CW 9, even though ESPN & ESPN2 didn't have an NBA game on either channel. They had doubleheader action in the made-for-ESPN "ACC/Big Ten Challenge". The next time WGN has a Bulls' game, it'll be the December 13th game vs. Vince Carter & the New Jersey Nets at United Center. I refer to it as a "2 WGN" game, because you can see it on Channel 9, of course, as well as on the renamed WGN America on DIRECTV 307. The Bulls' games vs. Washington Saturday & Knicks Tuesday, December 9th at United Center and the roadie at FedEx Forum in Memphis Friday, December 12th all can be seen on Comcast SportsNet.

Beardown, you make a lot of jokes about white people being white. I think you're a brother trapped in a white guy's body.

I'm very surprised they continue to start Luke Ridnour over Ramon Sessions

Where is all the Rose chatter? I guess he alone is not that big of a difference maker????
