I like the Bulls squad. I always like a team with a bunch of young guys. I wonder if they'll package a couple of them for a stud. They need a PF because Antonio Davis and Othella Harrington are getting old. Any chance of sliding Nocioni to PF, have him next to Deng and Curry and go with Duhon/Hinrich at guards?

Doubt it.....I personally think that Curry would have helped a lot and the outcome would be different. Without him, Haywood/Thomas was a pretty large factor. The Bulls simply had no one strong enough to properly match up with them. Chandler has a lot of potential IMO, but he REALLY needs to hit the weight room this off-season and put on some muscle. Plus he needs to work on his jump shot. Overall, I got to give the squad credit, they gave us Bulls fans something to be proud of once again.

Lets have a poll for the number of technical fouls in this series.

I say 17.

Again, look at the statistics, they don't lie. Nash had a good season, but so did Richardson, Marion, and Stoudemire.

there you go. they had great seasons, due in part to Nash running point. hence he was the most valuable player for his team because of the contributions he made to the team as a whole.

the award isn't intended to be for best individual performance...

That's an opinion....Would Nash have had so many assists if he was working with inferior talent, no. Stoudemire is a stud with or without Nash. The MVP of the team is Stoudemire, not Nash IMO. Nash gets the limelight because of his assists, which brings me back to my original statement.

Well, guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on this one. Amare is incredible, but Nash is the team leader and the biggest individual reason the Suns play the game they play now.

Amare will get his MVP in due time.

No matter what situation you're in, as a Pacer fan, you're always open to the Ron Artest rap album one liners....

Seriously, I think Jack 1 was like 1 for 11 or something starting off that game yet he continued to take shots, but the turnovers were killing us too. I'm hoping we play much better on Wednesday.

With that said, Detroit is definitely clicking on all cylinders late in the year.
