Good NBA Game Tonight: Bulls @ Toronto..Is Rose Playing??

[jjgold]

If not big position on Toronto although if not big position on Bulls

[lakerboy]

Bulls suck with him and without him

[jjgold]

Toronto needs a step up game
They remind me of a good team that is trying to compete with the good teams

It seems they are close............its a must win tonight

[Chi_archie]

"looking forward to a meeting, tentatively planned for Feb 2032. to discuss a contract to promote BEN GAY products, Rose has decided he will sit out tonights game to ensure he is stiff but not TOO stiff and possibly uncomfortable for that meeting" - Chi_Archie Suntenial

[Statman]

JJ - Local radio stations here in Toronto indicate that will be playing. Team is on a high right now although the last win against Orlando might be an indication they could be tailing off too. I'm inclined to lay the points as 2.5 points is just not enough for me to take CHI. Good luck in your plays.

[laclippers504]

Can't stand Rose but I see him and the team for that matter coming out fired up and getting the win against a good Toronto team, may make this a play

[jjgold]

When Rose plays he does do pretty good

It's just another added dimension

[LT Profits]

Rose listed as Probable.

[laclippers504]

With all this talk about him being a puss, which he is, I think he comes out hard tonight

[jjgold]

Guys roses not having a bad year in the games he has played

I think he's one of those players that wants to always feel hundred percent

Maybe with his type of game he needs to be that way??

[Smoke]

I wonder if rose will be "bouncy"

[Seaweed]

This is like the NBA Finals for Toronto.

It is the first time Toronto Raptors are playing on a Nationally televised game in the U.S since 2002.

It is like a 13 year old finally getting invited to his big brother's party.

The lights and pressure will be too much for them to handle.

I am strongly leaning Bulls so far

[Jayvegas420]

Seaweed gets it!

They better win

[Dollars2Donuts]

Toronto Raptors clean up their game and put it to the Bulls on their home court tonight. Toronto almost lost to an improving Magic squad last game BECAUSE they were all looking at tonight's matchup.

Even though they looked terrible, they easily overcame an 11 point deficit in the fourth quarter to win the game without their best players playing well.

Raptors 107 - Bulls 95.

[MoMoneyMoVaughn]

Toronto such a tough city to play in.

We hate you until you win. Then we hate yo for not winning enough. Then you stop winning and we hate you more.

Then you leave for a better team. And then our team is terrible and you win a championship. Then we draft decent player.

Repeat the process.

Mo, come to Real Sports bar tonight and ask for A.J

What will happen if I do...

I live close to Real Sports so I may get drunk enough to risk my life.

fwiw

He's completely oblivious to the media, the papers, the tv shows. Either by his choice or his ghetto brother mgr's choice. He ain't change anything due to the latest uproar. If he shows a strong effort, is just a coincidence. He really has no sense of the moment.

He's mostly isolated. Prolly practicing signing his name on the back of checks. Flash cards to attempt learn addition. Hand exercises to improve his ability to flash gang signs. Making sure he's got the right color attire for his next home game so he doesn't get shot leaving on his way home.

I love close to Real Sports so I may get drunk enough to risk my life.

I was there for MNF last year. Wow....what a night. Two of us somehow managed to chalk up a $700 tab before heading to all sorta of the skeeziest places in town (Brass Rail, etc).

Weeder tried to get me to come to some bar named Goodhandy's or something and ask for a BJ....not AJ. I passed.

This.

Completely disassociated. Don't like him or trust him.

D2D you are lucky. Ever heard of Jilly's? It burned down recently. Now haunted and skeezy.

I don't frequent realsports as they rarely ever have college sports on. At least last I was there they did not.

And that's where you have it backward. He is isolated and tone deaf and oblivious. But it's because he just wants to play basketball (when he's healthy) and plays it hard and is focused on studying and working on his game. He's a killer on the court and always has been. You can't separate the dumb stuff he says from his play on the court. Still needs to knock off rust and gain full confidence, but he is still a dominant player.

Anyone at Fallsview next weekend?

You will never see the full time Derrick Rose from a few years back. That player is looooonnng gone. It's more than the injuries. He's not the same player. He will NOT DOMINATE nor will he be expected to. He might as well change his name.

[PickoMoff]

Bulls suck with him and without him

What he said!

[JoeyBagels]

Rose and Jimmy Butler are both playing. Toronto has looked like absolute shit in every one of their games despite having a 7-1 record, it's quite remarkable. IDK about anyone else but Raps 4Q bets have been money for me since Rudy Gay was traded as well. I have positions on Bulls ML 1H +140 and alt lines of -3.5 +185 and O206.5 +210 (BM). Greek also has a prop of Derozan o22.5 pts -115. They rely on him so much on offense and he sort of kills their ball movement which is partially the reason the team has looked like bad on offense with such a ISO heavy game deferring to DD, Lowry and then Williams/Vasquez tandem off the bench. The benefit of offensive scheme for the prop is DDhe gets lots of touches. He hit 37/27 pts against the bulls last year at home despite stinking it up in Chicago and that was with Butler playing big minutes guarding him. All the additions Chicago made this offseason won't change them defensively and has quite honestly hurt them since Bulls D has not been good this year.

line never moved

Stupid fukk wrong again. Raptors were on TNT against the Hawks a couple years ago in the last week of the season.

I agree he won't score as much, but mainly because of the team and more weapons now.

Looks like you collected on this one Bagels

[EmpireMaker]

Rose went down again in the 4th Q , hamstring issue, time for another vacation.

[bjb7223]
