How is Shaq getting boxed out by Kurt Thomas? Shaq is stronger than Kurt Thomas isn't he? I've noticed in a lot of games this season, Shaq is unable to get inside position for rebounds. I have no idea why he's giving up that kind of position being as strong as he is.

Well...

The Bulls played their absolute best, we played our worst and we're down by 4 at the half.

I'll take it but...I am not pleased.

Don't think that was the Bulls best.  They gifted us a bunch of points with unforced turnovers.

Agree that it wasn't our best either.

I think it was as close to their best as they're gonna get with that lineup. Boozer had his way with Big Baby, Kurt Thomas straight embarrassed Shaq and JO, and Derek Rose with his 16 points with all those FTA's?

Yeah...that was their best.

that was nowhere near the Bulls best, but it was pretty close to our worst.

on top of how slow this game seems to be moving...the bull's commentators are putting me to sleep.
Wanted to highlight this. Just finished watching the Raptors game, and now started this one. I've caught up till where it's at right now, and seriously, I've been yawning vigorously (lol)

Actually considering some sleep after this.

Let's go Celtics!

.edit: actually, they reminded me of really bad, old-school radio commentators. The sound is really bad over International League Pass.

Just shows how impossible it is to satisfy everyone. People complain that Marshall never stops talking. The Bulls have a color guy who doesn't talk much and other people hate that.

You do realize the Bulls are a pretty good team right? 


Without Noah? They're okay.

It is absolutely the best I've seen from them lately and no ones going to change my mind on that.

Why is this even an issue? Are we looking for a moral victory?

Either you win or you lose.

Let's not get into that Rashard Lewis style nonsense of 'we know we are the better team' when losing.

Of course neither team will play their best offensively. Both teams are good defensive teams. Opponents make teams look bad. No excuse making needed. Just win.

I saw Thomas tip a long rebound to himself. That one had nothing to do with boxing out, as Shaq had better position. It just turned out that the rebound was long.
