some of these players act like people are out to hurt them. cpllisions and hard fouls are a part of the game. If they don't like it, they shouldn't even be playing. Oh BTW I'm a Laker-Hater but what Raja did was a bitch move...completely uncalled for.

Lakers are douchebags, all they had to do was foul at the suns last play in regulation and NOT let anybody shoot a three.. they make 2 freethrows and they are still up by 1 with 6 secs left.. idiots
Lakers BLOW!!!

I think the Bulls future is bright, because we have a lottery pick via the Eddy Curry trade from the Knicks. The Bulls need to draft a real shooting guard, power forward, or another center. That is what the Bulls need more defensive presence and another option at scorer. I hope the Bulls keep these players:
Gordon, Hinrich, Deng, Nocioni, and Duhon.
They need to get rid of Chandler, he's been a bust!

You know you're screwed when Kwame Brown seems to be panning out more than both baby bulls (Chandler and Curry)... :shakehead

I agree. The Bulls need to IMO get a dominant center. Chandler doesn't play intelligent ball and isn't a scorere. I think that if he matured mentally(might never happen) and put on 15-20 lbs of muscle, he would have potential. I'd personally get rid of Chandler because I don't think that's ever going to happen and as you said he is a bust. I think Sweetney might develop, but right now he is solid coming off the bench.
The bright side in the off season: The Bulls will have a pick no worse than 5 and the 16th. Given our lottery chances(NY), we could have the number 1 pick.

What the bulls need is some consistency. Nocioni, Duhon, Deng, Hinrich, Gordon, ALL OF THEM ARE STREAKY.
And I'm still pissed about how the NY has to give away a lottery pick. Even more pissed at how Eddy Curry sucks. A bit more at Francis's contract. Ugh...
Bitter Knicks fan, whose complaints never end.

they need a center more than anything. after that, i think aging is what will help them the most
and above in response to the nickname idiot, thats the point. put someone on the line and let them hit 2 free throws instead of a chance to tie

:sucker:
The Knicks need to fire Isiah Thomas. Things will only get better for them after that.

Well, I just found out why Ernie Johnson looks weird on the left side of his face... Good luck Ernie.
Two and a half years ago, in August of 2003, I was diagnosed with "follicular" Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. This is a low-grade and treatable cancer--not as aggressive as some other forms. The approach that my oncologist recommended was what is called "watchful waiting"--that is, monitoring my condition with checkups every 4 months with the option to begin treatment if and when I began showing symptoms of illness. Through all this time I have had no symptoms...have felt great... and still do to this day.
The only reason I'm bringing my condition to your attention now is because the swelling of a lymph node near my left ear has become noticeable to viewers of TNT and there have been questions asked. My plan is to work the rest of the NBA season and playoffs, go to the beach with my wife, Cheryl, and our 4 kids, and start a treatment regimen in late June, which will likely include chemotherapy. And then I'll go back to work.

I think when you play against 'centers' who give up 2-3" and 20-30lbs. you arent really panning out...one stretch of him playing good doesnt mean he'll be good....look at Mike Dunleavy....

The key word here is seems. I for one, don't believe it but a lot of people are saying based on the 2 half of the season that he is finally making a turn.
