    I like Golden State Matt Barnes.

    I like his goon status when he doesn't play US.

    I like him as a father.

    One of my favorite players, outside of Htown, was Stephen Jackson. The man was unstoppable at some points. YOu couldn't guard him, he was clutch and he wasn't afraid of anyone.

    I loved how he played. It's too bad that his best years were in GS, but he was a hell of a player.

    Refs should do their ****ing job right and it wouldn't be this chippy. Bulls have been screwed.

    *Potentially* Interesting offseason for the Bulls.

    Will they fire Thibodeau? Will he walk away? "Mutual" parting?
    Although it seems we've been talking about them parting ways for at least 2 seasons now.

    Butler(RFA) and Dunleavy are free agents.
    Noah & Gasol are old (both still under contract though; Gasol probably still has something left)
    Rose: Are we [still] counting on him to stay healthy?

    Good regular season team but never got over the hump. Partly due to injuries, partly due to the hump better known as "LeBron James".

    The Bulls really need to rebuild their team. Rose and Butler are at best #3 options on a great team.

    They have the defense, but once again lacks any type of offensive competency to beat a Lebron James-led team.

    So that's the one observation you're going with this entire game.

    If the rockets play a game like this the narrative will be about how bad mchale and morey are. With the Bulls they'll still call thibs a great coach lol

    I think that Rose on only 1 day rest is less effective is real and in effect. Butler really needs to take over and not play second fiddle to Rose right now.

    They are slowing down the best player in the league. Thibs is a defensive coach so he's doing his job.

    Can't help that his team doesn't have a superstar.

    Only in the NBA can you get clotheslined and still have the impulse to embellish it.
