|
|
from rgm/sbn
Pregame
| Quote: | | This will be the Lakers 3rd game in 4 nights and 6th game in 9 nights. The Bulls will be well rested. No excuses. |
| Quote: | How about that Larry Nance? I still wish Chicago had the balls to draft him instead of Portis.
|
| Quote: | | Russell is out and Randlecmay be out too. No excuses, let's get this win and then let's see what we're made of on Friday. |
| Quote: | | Message to Luke Walton: Nick Young cannot guard Jimmy Butler. |
| Quote: | | Somebody bout to get their ass kicked. |
| Quote: | | Lakers have no defense |
| Quote: | | Not an easy win by any means the way our bench is playing. Lakers have guys that can light it up. Lou Williams, Nick Young and a lot of young guys that can get hot. Mirotic and Portis need to show why they are out there. Especially Mirotic, he needs to realize he's almost 7 feet tall and take it to guys that are a half of foot shorter than him guarding him like he did two seasons ago. |
| Quote: | | Quote: | | This is a huge trap game. Lakers are dangerous. Plenty of off time for us. Cavs game looming. |
We outlasted them in LA on a B2B without Wade, I would hope we can handle them at home, rested, with him. |
| Quote: | | Lakers getting smoked by NOH tonight. |
| Quote: | | No Young or Russell, man Bulls better put them away early and rest up for the Cavs game |
| Quote: | | A third-tier opponent playing a road back to back, missing one or two of its starters ... good game to put the chokehold on early, then rest our starters in the 4th. Well at least that's the theory. It often doesn't work that way in reality. But this team, perhaps, might be able to deliver on that. |
| Quote: | | I don't think I've ever seen a team with as much time off in their schedule as the Bulls these last two games. |
| Quote: | | Root Canal/tooth issue probably means he hasn't been eating or sleeping well the last few days either. This is where you don't want to risk injury with him. It's not worth it. We can beat LA without him. They are coming off a back to back and got spanked by NO last night. late flight in - they should be leery and were pretty well rested... |
| Quote: | | what a difference...Im 110% sure that if it was Derrick Rose with the dental procedure he would be out a week or so...So glad hes gone and we have Wade now...even at 34... |
1st half
| Quote: | | jesus, sloppy and lucky for LA |
| Quote: | | Love lopez. Dude is just so big and defends well |
| Quote: | | I don't mind Rondo but man I'm sick of having a guy on the court that when wide open at the elbow his first instinct is pass. Ben Wallace, late stage Noah, and now Rondo. Seems like Chicago has more of those guys then most teams. and how could I forget Tyson. |
| Quote: | | Sweet dime by Valentine! |
| Quote: | | Valentine will be our Ginobilli |
| Quote: | | This Ingram kid is a toothpick |
| Quote: | | Bobby if you aren't ready to play sit back down |
| Quote: | | Bobby came in for 5 seconds and **** up that fast |
| Quote: | | I don't understand what happened to Bobby. He was our valentine early last year and then he fell off a cliff. |
| Quote: | | How much does Ingram weigh? Like 75kg soaking wet??? |
| Quote: | | The bench is completely collapsing. Can't pick up the ball under its own basket, 4 fouls in 2 minutes. |
| Quote: | | This bench is just trash. |
| Quote: | | my goodness take bobby out asap!!!!!!! dude cant grab a **** basketball |
| Quote: | | Quote: | | We'd be losing if we were playing an NBA team. |
They got a lot of injury problems right now. Not really a fair matchup against a mostly healthy Chicago team. |
| Quote: | Man the Bulls would be losing if the Lakers weren't so terrible.
|
| Quote: | | It doesnt matter how good starter plays when Bobby can go in and *** things around in 2 in half minutes. He must be one of worst players in NBA if not THE worst |
| Quote: | | did felicio f _at_ _at_ k hoidbergs daughter or something .play him. |
| Quote: | | Where's the movement? Last couple plays have all been Wade ISO. |
| Quote: | | Listening to Stacy King you would think Lou Williams is Lebron James. |
| Quote: | | Can Stacey call out Bobby for being trash? I think Bobby is FO protected |
| Quote: | This is one of the worst shooting I've ever seen from an NBA team. Quite literally, the Bulls are 1-15 in shots of 15 feet or more. Robin Lopez made the first jumper that he tried and that has been it.
Just give it to Jimmy and get out of the way. None of the rest of you can shoot AT ALL. |
| Quote: | | LOL Bobby is so weak. |
| Quote: | | Lmao Bobby Portis is only fake crazy. Nance just owned him, my god. |
| Quote: | | I feel like if you replaced Bobby with like a generic NBA power forward the Bulls would be up 15 points right now. |
| Quote: | | Quote: | | I think Bobby needs some goggles like Kareem Abdul Jabbar It seems like he really can’t see what the (bleep) is going on around him |
Those huge eyes clearly aren't doing their job |
| Quote: | | When Rondo is the only one able to make jumpshots, we're in trouble |
| Quote: | Man this has been an ugly half of basketball. Lakers too tired, Bulls too rested.  |
| Quote: | | A Raps loss + Bulls win could get us into the 2nd seed. TOR down 4 to Memphis atm. |
| Quote: | | The bulls didn't "underestimate" the Lakers the **** bench came in and shat on everything. Has nothing to do with effort or being ready to play and everything to do with how **** the bench is right now. |
| Quote: | | How perfect would a Rondo for Tyson Chandler trade be right now? |
| Quote: | | Bulls bench combined for 7 POINTS compared to the Lakers bench who had 24 POINTS LOL. |
| Quote: | | If Bobby can string together a handful of solid games, we should trade him for Lou Williams. |
| Quote: | | Randle with 11 boards in the first half. BOX THE (bleep) OUT. |
| Quote: | | Quote: | | Man Marcus Smart is terrible He was so good at OK St |
not really
there was just no one else on his team, so he could take as many shots as he wanted |
2nd half
| Quote: | | Real sloppy out there |
| Quote: | | Lmao rondo is on fire. |
| Quote: | | Lol @ Rondo with 2 threes |
| Quote: | | OH ****. RONDO HAS BECOME RAY ALLEN! |
| Quote: | | Rondo and Robin on triple double alerts. |
| Quote: | | How is that a jump ball I mean he basically had Jimmy in a head lock |
| Quote: | | I'll tell you what, if this team rolls into the playoffs healthy ("if healthy" is my bulls fan nervous tic), look out. Motivated Rondo, Wade, and Jimmy will be a tough match-up for anyone. Throw in the grimy hardnosed interior of Lopez and Gibson and this team could be downright scary. Just need a couple x-factors off the bench (McD, Niko, MCW, Val) to step up when the lights are brightest. |
| Quote: | | Is Cannan for real. He has missed 4 wide open 3s. |
| Quote: | | Ingram is really bad. My god. |
| Quote: | | WTF is he doing out there? Jesus man this team needs MCW and Doug back ASAP. |
| Quote: | | Jimmy making it easy to guard him tonight. He needs to take and make jumpers. |
| Quote: | | I hope Ingram pans out for the Lakers because right now he is crap. |
| Quote: | | LMao Grant. Our bench is the laughing stock of the league |
| Quote: | | up by 1 and bobby portis is coming...jesus help us... |
| Quote: | | Jimmy is shooting 3 of 10 but still has 18 points. Sign of a really good player. |
| Quote: | | Portis coming in That means my blood pressure is going up |
| Quote: | | Can we get a board? We are getting manhandled. |
| Quote: | | Williams is such a flopper and a half. |
| Quote: | | Oh my god Fred get Grant out now!!! |
| Quote: | | **** HOIBERG!!!!! YOU WILL NEVER LEARN!!! STUPID!!!!! |
| Quote: | | Crap. Just leave starting lineup in there. |
| Quote: | | Put Rondo back in before we lose this game. |
| Quote: | | Oh my god the Cavs are going to kill us Friday |
| Quote: | Stacy threw some shade at Fred about substitution patterns
|
| Quote: | | ''Kind of not ready to play'' - Stacey King. ‘’Kind of’‘….. You’re too kind, Stacey. They suck |
| Quote: | | I think you get what you can in trades for Niko and Portis while you still can. I hate watching anything they do. |
| Quote: | | Jimmy Harden Butler |
| Quote: | | There you go Canaan. He can't believe he's been missing that shot all night. |
| Quote: | | About time, now time to put the game away. |
| Quote: | | The Bulls would be losing by double digits without Rondo tonight. He's been making plays on both ends. |
| Quote: | | Rondo working hard to take the title of Mr. Intangibles away from Kirk. |
| Quote: | | Jeez...please just win this game. |
| Quote: | | Randle is still a little off from being a true stud, but that guy is a damn bulldog. He would have been great about a decade ago when the league was more physical. |
| Quote: | | Quote: | | If I'm a Laker fan, Julius Randle would drive me nuts. He's just as lethargic as Niko all night. Making stupid decisions and not focused all night. |
Give me Randle over Niko 11 out of 10 times. |
| Quote: | | Rondo has a layup if he cuts, instead he stands at the three point line. |
| Quote: | | This has to be rust. Has to be Or we're screwed |
| Quote: | | Why is everyone acting brain dead? From Fred to Jimmy everyone forgot how to play good basketball. |
| Quote: | | never seen us that sloppy before...we are sleep walking out there... |
| Quote: | | What a terrible foul by Rondo. Bulls can't just live with found money on Rajon, always have to push the envelope. |
| Quote: | | Quote: | | Would these guys please go to the rim? |
You don't see the entire Laker defense within ten feet of the rim because the Bulls are playing literally zero shooters right now AND playing a simple P&R offense? I don't think they need spacing when you have ball+player movement but that's not at all what they're doing right now. |
| Quote: | | Randle has 19 boards. More than Taj and Rolo combined. |
| Quote: | | Can't believe we're actually gonna lose this... |
| Quote: | | This is rust guys. Definitely rust. Gibson airballing that is bull ****. |
| Quote: | | Big shot Jimmy!!!! |
| Quote: | | Quote: | | We may win this game based on superior talent...but for the record Walton coached circles around Hoiberg tonight |
And he's doing it all while throwing his young guys into the fire. |
| Quote: | | We've got two closers. Wade needs to step up right now and help Jimmy out. |
| Quote: | | That dirty work RoLo did that secure the second possession that lead to Butler 3 was really underrated. |
| Quote: | | Jimmy just making Clarkson his b****. |
| Quote: | | So Jimmy gets grabbed on the other end, but no call |
| Quote: | | Randle plays like a possessed bull. He just tries shoving every single thing. |
| Quote: | | Randle has destroyed us all damn night. |
| Quote: | | Jimmy might need to defend Randle |
| Quote: | | Quote: | | Niko overplayed the right there, if Randle makes anything going to his right there, tip the cap; can't allow Randle to force you middle then drop to the dominant hand. |
Randle is built like a truck, no way Niko winning that matchup on the block. |
| Quote: | | Wow. Why was Rondo in there with Lopez down two? Why make it so much harder for the team to score? |
| Quote: | | They call THAT a foul but Jimmy gets no calls? Someone needs to tell the refs that Lou Williams isn't an all-star |
| Quote: | | wow. bs reffing again. not a foul on Lou. |
| Quote: | | Lou Williams annoys the **** out of me |
| Quote: | | Deng on bench laughing but I would be too |
| Quote: | | Jimmy choked big time |
| Quote: | | This team will only go as far as Jimmy goes. And he's off tonight. sadly the bench can't support it either. |
| Quote: | | Good game to LA they played harder and kept fighting. |
| Quote: | | We had to wait a week for this. Depressing. |
| Quote: | | Crapped the bed this game. |
| Quote: | | Coming off a long break and Lakers coming from back to back. No excuses for this loss. |
| Quote: | | Quote: | | Quote: | | Luke Walton just outcoached the hell out of Hoiberg |
Yup
The double team on Jimmy all game and having Calderon go after Rondo was brilliant. |
Calderon getting up against his former team |
| Quote: | | Quote: | | Worst loss of the Year? No answer for the double-teaming of Jimmy. Somewhat due to our lack of reliable three-point shooter. Somewhat result of slow ball movement. |
Wade is supposed to be Jimmy's outlet But Wade didn’t seem to give a (bleep) tonight |
| Quote: | | 56-16 in bench points. Not really a fair comparison as Clarkson and Williams are better than the Lakers starters and should probably be starting. But still, we should be able to muster more than 16. |

Shows how much some fans just care about offensive stats these days.
He's very raw there obviously but a 19 year old kid shutting down Butler for 41 minutes? That's beautiful.

I know. They're only looking at 1-side of the ball. There's a reason he played all those minutes. |

| lol @ complaining about Lou's freethrows, but not Bulter's crazy foul calls. Trying to figure out if Jimmy Butler pulled a Lou Williams or if Lou Williams pulled a Jimmy Butler. |

I laughed at that one too... easier to criticize their own players than it is to change their perception about the Lakers or even recognize what good defense looks like.
Not all of them though, a couple posters actually had a clue. The Nance compliments in particular. |

Sports fans I know from Chicago are usually more chill than sports fans I know from other places (like Boston lol).

Ingram played like crap? He had like 12 contested shots and was always where he had to be on defense.

did i see one guy complain about Butler not getting a call ?? lol after watching 2 games against the Bulls seems as if he does the LeBron shoulder down into your chest move and gets a call every freaking time and they are complaining he didnt get a call ?? lol
How about Clarkson trying to avoid the Bulls Asst coach who was on the court and turns the ball over no call |
