    Hopefully that will get people off T-Mac's back after his big night tonight. Everyone played well and it was a massive game and a great response to Thursday's disappointments.

    Now let's make this a great road trip

    The bulls are worse than the rockets at everything, they even have the player with the worse jumpshot, worse than hayes.

    Let's hope the Rockets, and especially T-Mac, stick with the system.

    Amazing what happens when your shots go down with some semblance of regularity. Nice flow to the offense, and having McGrady end the offense seemed to work better than him starting it.

    I didn't watch all four quarters. Just the last. I loved Brooks unselfishness. He is probably the only PG on our team who can penetrate and dish it out. Scola was a beast along with Bonzi. But Scola finally got his game going again. Like I said before, he is the type of player that needs to get consistent playing time and touches. Especially when the ball is on the move. He's not good at creating his own shots, but he can definitely score within the flow of the offense. So when the offense is flowing, so it Scola's shots.

    Let's hope we carry this energy into tomorrow's game against the Pistons.

    I knew this one was over when we came back from the early deficit. The Bulls have played out that script multiple times this season. We took advantage of a sorry team and spanked them. Not a great win, but a very good one. How we compete in the Pistons game tomorrow will say a lot more about us.

    AB is starting to get a better gauge of what he can do. He penetrated a lot more and passed it out 95% of the time. As time goes by, I want him to be more aggressive at finishing at the rim.

    Good to see Shane's offense back from the dead. Good to see Luther play well in front of the home folks.

    Head speaking the truth on post game interview:

    (paraphrasing)

    Bench wasn't looking for Yao and TMac, instead looked for their own shots, that's why the good bench play tonight.

    I loved the transition offense we got from our bench with Brooks, Head, Wells, and Scola. I wish some of that speed and determination to run hard was more prevalent in our starting lineup, though.
