[ESPN] Bulls to feature hodge-podge lineup vs. Grizzlies

Bulls aren't tanking whatsoever...anyone who knows anything about their team knows that they have been decimated by injuries to their top 4 players, which is precisely when their losing streak started. Why the hell would Chicago tank for the 11th pick in the draft which oh by the way they traded to Milwaukee with John Salmons (in fact it is a swap of 1st round picks, top 10 protected).

 

ugh, the NBA is such a p***y league now. The officiating is why there's so many floppers in the league now - they know a little bump or fall can draw a foul easily.

You want to stop flopping? Stop calling p***y fouls.

 

In the Lakers/Suns game recently, Gasol smacked Amundson in the head on a drive and was a lot worse than what Miller did here. If Gasol didn't get a flagrant for that, no way Miller should have got one.

 

THAT WAS A FLAGRANT?

HE WAS STANDING THERE!

 

And Hinrich was being nice to the officials. They deserved alot worse than a few words and a bump/grab.

 

They did pretty well today at the end. Came back from 25.

Pargo messed it up BIG time, they had a chance to even win the game.

I remember a long time ago, former Rocket Allen Leavell chocked a referee in the CBA. This was after he played for the Rockets. Couldn't find a youtube video for it.

 

That was a ridiculous flagrant foul call against Brad Miller. Especially since this is the same guy that was nearly decapitated on the last play of the game against the Celtics in last year's playoffs. Rondo intentionally wacked him in the head and it was just a two shot foul. Miller missed the free throws because he was still dazed and the Bulls lost the game.

But the league views a hard foul on Wade as much worse than a dirty foul against a non-star player.

 

I hope the Bulls aren't throwing the towel in. Not just because I hate tanking, but how do you sell the idea to a coach that's already on the hotseat? What are you going to do....ask him to lose and then fire him because of his poor record?

Hell, I guess that type of logic beats purposely leaking to the media reports of how you want to fire your coach and are searching for a replacement only to decide to keep him.

 

You got knocked the f%!# out man know give me back my ******* money,now pay back a muthaf!%# aint it! :grin: "Smokey off Friday" :grin:

 

Some of these refs need that

 

Acie Law! It's your time to shine!

 

Preach the choir, man. :grin:

 

An Acie law sighting. He better make the best of it, or I see Europe in his future.
