Well I got what I wanted from Gordon. Noc had his 16 boards. Chandler needs to reach double diget rebounds in game 2. The thing about this game is I think the Bulls can play better. We shot 26 three's and made half. Yet we still only shot 44% from the field. The defense was horrible in the first half. They had 11 transition baskets. Skiles will solve that for game 2. We didn't get much from Deng. Maybe he was a little nervous. He'll play better in game 2. Hinrich got going in the second half. He needs to settle down late in games. He tends to make turnovers in crunch time as he did in game 1. The Bulls get the game 2.

Question for the class, does Tyson have any business out on the floor when Shaq is out there? Shaq guards him, so he really doesn't have to work on defense. He can just sag down low and clog up the middle. Tyson can't guard Shaq without quick help. I am just trying to figure out what Tyson brings to the table. How can a guy that tall and athletic have no offensive skills at all, none?

I guess my only problem is that with Chandler you are playing with only four on offense. The Bull must make Shaq work harder on defense. I am not pining for Eddy, but someone on the bench needs to make Shaq work on the defensive end. Maybe Skiles needs to start Chandler and run the shit out of Shaq and then let Sweetney work on him down low. He is our only low post option, such as it is. The Bull should have won that game, but for some horrible posessions in the last three minutes.

By the way. What the hell was up with all of the fans in white clothing and the team benches being drapped in white. It stadium looked like a KKK convention.

Did anyone catch the two shirtless assclowns painted white? One had a 3 on his chest, the other a 32. They looked like the kid in Powder. Very creepy.
