Towns block just sent McDermott back to the third grade. I think it went upper deck. The children of North Korea are holding a vigil and pretending to cry for the media.

Man we suck. I know people want to praise Rose for showing up the last few games but he is still wildly inconsistent. 6/20 tonight are you serious?

I don't want to hear anyone complain about Rose's shooting percentage tonight either...got 7 free throws but deserved about 12-14. He did miss an unusual amount of floaters though.

The fact of the matter is, this team is just an average team. Even with Butler, NIko and MDJ healthy, our bench is below average among legit contending teams, we don't have enough play makers or shooters, and our defense struggles mightily putting in a 4 QTR effort.

I get that, but he didn't get the call and he hasn't gotten the calls all year. With that knowledge you have to be more efficient.

It's on the rating of the bench we disagree the most. I don't see a lot of teams with the offensive firepower of McDermott, Brooks, and Mirotic when the rotation slims down we will be fine.

The only teams in the east that can match us offensively when we are on all cylinders will be Cleveland, Toronto, and Atlanta. If we avoid matching up with Cleveland I think there is a good chance your prediction of first or second round exit will be wrong.

When you include Moore, snell, Portis, Hinrich we are too deep to play everyone who has a role and I don't know what Hoiberg will do. We are as deep as the Western Juggaurnauts and Cleveland. There are like 6 teams this deep in the NBA.

Doug, Brooks, and Niko? Really? I mean, you could think whatever you want about our bench, but this team is hardcore average as far as playoff contenders are concerned and that will be on display once again come playoff time. If we make it there. Which we probably will but Doug, Brooks, and Niko isn't striking fear in any legit playoff team I promise you that.

It is funny that some bulls fans still think there is hope. Just hope we can lose enough to get out of playoff contention and in to the lottery. That is the only thing you can hope for.
