    Well maybe not a game 7.

    One half does not define a team. Coming back from 19 down in the 4Q does.

    i will say that was impressive.. but they need another scorer to have a legit chance to win the east or a title .... the hawks are offensively challenged and have been for a while now...



    until they get a player beside d rose the curse of brahma/kerry will live

    well played Gates

    I think that it is a decent point to bring up, that the hard nosed defensive style is a grind and will wear down players fast in this season with less rest, and thibs tends to work his players pretty hard with lots of practice and shoot around mins to work on details.

    At least the playoffs tend to have alot more spacing in between games

    Yep, I'm not sure how the playoffs are running this year, but I can only assume that they will be spaced out like normal unlike the reg. season.

    And unlike Dallas tonight, the bulls managed to score 20 in the first half, and still end up winning the game, because they have a "decent" defensive squad and were able to hold the other team to a small number at half.

    Then again, I don't believe regular season performance matters too much, except for getting home court advantage.

    Decent? Bulls play the best team defense in the NBA, hands down. Individually they are not the single best collection of defenders, but as a unit they're the best. Thanks in large part to Thibodeau.

    That's why I put it in "quotes" because, if they were down 25 at half like most teams would be only scoring in the 20's, they wouldn't be able to come back...But they were only down 10 at half, because they do play "decent" D.

    What is decent? Decent to me means they are an average defensive team. I think they are the best, or at a minimum, among the top 3 defensive teams in the NBA. Hard to imagine anyone arguing otherwise. That' not just decent. That's excellence. Nobody teaches and preaches defense like Thibs. Aside from Noah, he doesn't even have a naturally defensive-oriented group. He *made* Deng a + defender. He was average before Thibs. He even manages to hide Boozer at times.

    And before that, he turned Ray Allen into defensively competent in his 30's.

    I really thought after Deng's first two years that he was gonna explode into a star..... but I guess that wasn't to be. I've learned to appreciate his game alot more and the role he plays. His name always gets thrown around in trade talks, but I'd hate for the Bulls to lose him at this point.

    Deng is the 2nd most important man on the team. Logs the most minutes and gives his all every night on defense.

    Bulls play a "grind them down" type defense, it starts to wear on opponents in the 4th quarter. The really stupid part is when people make comments about games when the game isn't even half over. You'd think people would learn to keep their mouths shut until at least late in the 4th.

    But that was quite a poor performance on offense during that first half...But 1 regular season game doesn't decide if that team is championship contender.

    We're going to see a lot of poor offensive and defensive performances during this crazy truncated season.

    the Knicks gave up 118 to the Bobcats not too long ago for example
