When are we going to cut this James Young experiment and trade him.

When are we going to cut this James Young experiment and trade him.

Young looked like he was playing at a NBA role player level today.  I am happy with that progress.  He lost Doug M for one shot, but was hustling on D and not hurting the team.

I'll take being down three with IT and AB completely off

Yeah I will take it as well.  C's are engaged in this one.  Everyone giving the effort.  IT isn't a good match for playing D against the bulls.  Hopefully he can get the lid off the basket in the 2nd half.  Bulls have done a good job managing and defending IT.  Bulls have smart defenders on that team.  I think IT's size disadvantage is probably a lot worse against certain teams, the bulls might be one of those.

yeah, even Mcdermott was using his size on IT.  still surprised some coaches/players don't pick on him more

Nice to see good Basketball

I m so sick of worthless Rockets and Cavs ISO ball

[blink]

yeah that was some team basketball on display on both sides.  a bit high on the turnovers, but there is team play and high level d being showcased by both clubs.

If Young can get minutes and not hurt them on D, it'll give him a chance to start hitting shots, then we my have a player.

The turnovers are a big issue.  They lead to sometimes 4 or 5 point swings. Cut those down even a little and C's would be in control of this game.

Good game so far, nice to see Kelly take shots. Chicago has good shooting with Doug and big beard guy!

I think you just nailed their plan .

Lord I miss RJ Hunter ......he'd be good on Bulter

This.  I'd like to see the offense involve him a bit more when he's on the court, but on defense he's playing solid.  Sags a bit too far off-ball, but his length is an issue when on the ball, especially for smaller guards.

Made a good pass to Lee who missed an easy floater, and also missed a three.  But again, he's not getting many touches in a position to make something happen.

There we go.

So looks like Stevens made the defensive adjustment of putting Amir on Gasol instead of Sully.

Now let's see if Gibson's speed doesn't become a problem for Sully. I think it won't, but we'll see.

[SHAQATTACK]

I believe Lee is trying to prove he deserves the extra minutes

[BudweiserCeltic]

That should've been a shooting foul.
