Re:Official Game Thread: Bulls @ Pacers

This is a make or break game for the Bulls season. If they won this game they still have a shot at the fifth spot. If not we'll have to settle for the sixth

Yeah this is a big one. We need to come out and set the tone and get back on the winning track. We can't go 0-2 on this road trip split them and head back to Chicago @ 37-39.

Re:Official Game Thread: Bulls @ Pacers

Brandon Rush has been on fire lately. We need to find a way to cool him down. Hopefully Salmons is good to go or we're going to be in big trouble. At this point I'm not worried about the 5th seed. Let's just make the playoffs.

Re:Official Game Thread: Bulls @ Pacers

From what I've read Murphy is still in a lot of pain. If he plays he wont be able to log a lot of minutes. I hope this is true, because he has been a Bulls killer.

Jarrett Jack has played well for them. He is averaging 18 and 4 assists or something like that over the last month and takes care of the ball pretty well for a PG. Ford turns the ball over twice as much and doesnt have the shooting pct Jack does. Jack is just more consistent.

but tj ford could turn into a great player, he still has time. it would make more sense than pretending they can make the playoffs.

As Bulls fans, how often have we been in that same situation (Boylan) and not seen our young players minutes go up for development?

I think we will win this one. I'm waiting for Rose to go off for 50. If he would just assert himself the entire game like he does in the final minutes of the 4th he would be so deadly.

Man this may be our last visit ever to Indiana lol. They are rumored to be losing 20 million this season. I cant believe that they are doing that bad financially.

TJ Ford is the problem guys. He had issues with Jose Calderon and now Jarret Jack. For a guy who should be thanking God everyday for being able to play the game he really is a punk. There is no way he can be a star anymore. He is what 26? He is a nice backup nothing more, people dont know this but he is just another Michael Jordan draft pick mistake.

This is another game that I don't feel good about. They couldn't win at Conseco when Granger and Dunleavy were out. But Rose had one of his worst games of the year. I can't see him playing that bad again.

If Murphy is out we should win. The key to the game is containing Rush
