Bulls with a quiet win over the spurs last night, we will take it. 10-5!
I’m pretty impressed with the Bulls. With Noah looking like he may not even belong in the league most nights, the injuries with Rose, and an injured dunleavy they are playing exceptionally well. Actually hung with GS better than most.

Sadly, being 10-5 doesn’t mean anything in the East right now. One win or loss can make you go to 2nd place or 5th.
the fact that the bulls are 10-5 is incredible considering they look like shit out there

agree. i said it to my friends when they came to play the warriors… i know their record is good and their losses have been close, but the eye test tells me they are not that good of a team.

should look at the market for everyone on the team, tbh. it’s pretty much inevitable at this point.
They could pick up Isiah Thomas
They should try to trade Lawson and Howard and Ariza and see if they can get any value.
I want to keep Ariza, dude is the heart of the team and plays well on both ends of the floor.
Jones, Lawson, and Howard would be a nice trade package, but I don’t think the issues are with those players.
The issue is Harden dude needs to step it up in all phases sadly this team lacks leadership heavily. I feel bad for Lawson what looked to be a second chance and the team choose not to play to his strengths due to deferring to Harden and it showed. Currently the key will be if Morey can find a coach who can put some egos in check and make his system work (I would like a coach from Pop’s tree). I wouldn’t be surprised if Morey is also on thin ice after all this debacle since he built the team but looked very little at the chemistry of it, I wish he had never traded AB I loved his energy.
As it stands Terrance Jones would be a trade piece for someone serviceable. As for Dwight I doubt he has much value left since he’s starting to slow down a little maybe those injuries are catching up to him, unless ATL wants him since they need a guy that gets those boards.
Edit: Morey can make all the trades he wants but if ISO Harden continues to be the norm it won’t make much of a difference.

Meh, I am assuming teams did that already. I mean, what went through front offices when they found out MJ was coming back to the Bulls?
At least some positive news for the Rockets.
Sounds like the Sixers have been doing this for years! Wait out every other team that might be good! =)
The introduction for Kobe was really good.
He’s already crossed Convington over twice. I miss seeing this Kobe in action.

kobe with the respectable kobe first quarter. 3-7 from 3, 5/10 overall. 13 pts.
LETS MAKE HISTORY. 76ers 19th straight loss for the longest losing streak to start a season behind kobe’s 52 pts.
