A win's a win. See, my sucky Bulls beat the Clippers who beat the LeHeat that will be winning not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, not six, not seven, not eight, not nine, not ten, not eleven, not twelve, not thirteen, not fourteen, not fifteen, not sixteen, not seventeen, not eighteen, not nineteen, not twenty, not twenty-one...I'd keep going...but, you get my idea.

So, as of this moment...the sucky Bulls are better than the LeHeat.



Just this moment. I know, it won't last because the LeHeat will once again ascend their throne of invincibility.

And why am I beating a dead horse? It bears mentioning regularly how great the LeHeat are.

I agree with you he is not elite. He's not a name-brand player. Like LeLeBron.

So how or why did the players agree to this schedule. I enjoy seeing games on everyday but 3 in a row? The injuries are going to start piling up at that rate of games.

No I still think they aren't as good as many think they are and you will see as the season goes on.

This is a grueling season with all the back to back games and the Clippers have only played 8 games to date while many other teams have played 11 or 12 so the Clippers are more rested.

The fact that the Bulls didn't get swept by the LeHeat or got beat by 900+ point margins is accomplishment.

Seriously, I was expecting the following:

Game 1: MIA 1023 CHI 20
Game 2: MIA 920 CHI 10
Game 3: MIA 1423 CHI 4
Game 4: MIA 986 CHI 1

Once again? Did you miss the Boston and Chicago series last year?

I'll add that while Lebron missed free throws, the fact that he was driving the lane or mixing it up in the paint was commendable. He didn't shy away....just didn't finish. If he corrects that for the playoffs, they will be incredibly difficult to defend.

Its something Magic and Jordan used to do to keep their teams in games. Draw the foul, stop the clock, make the free throws.

Additionally, for every call phantom foul I thought the clippers were wrongly called for, there were just as many goal tends on DeAndre Jordan. Dude gets up, but they're giving him too much credit.

I think i've given more than , but its pretty fun to analyze a game as a fan from another team, and in person.

I'll stop interrupting the Miami-Chicago rivalry. Carry on....

There is no Bulls-LeHeat rivalry...!



Only total respect. I'm always in awe of the LeHeat...

It's true. He did a much better job of his aggression and that's what everybody wants. I hope he continues to carry that mentality. His FG% is really high this year because of this aggression and he doesn't shoot many 3's anymore. Plus I've seen stats where his post up game is really coming along.

Nugs are so underrated, but I've loved them ever since the formation of their new unit. That shit works, so deadly.

Tonights Lakers vs Clippers game should be good I hope. The Clippers are the only team in the NBA that has played less than 10 games (8)thus far most teams have at least played 11-13 games some by now so they are the most rested team in the NBA right now.

Watching the replay now....chippy. Kobe looks good. The hole in the Laker lineup is at point guard (obviously) ...

...and the Clips have 3 all-stars there (Paul, Chauncey, Mo Williams).

On another note, Kobe looks GREAT.

Yeah the desperately need to figure out their point guard situation soon. Morris and Fisher had no chance against CP3 and Blake probably wouldn't have done much better if he was healthy. That extended time off for Kobe along with the procedure he underwent on his knees did him well he looks like Kobe '06 edition.

Still, better record than the LeHeat.
