Bulls Drop 2 In A Row…
This West coast trip is a bit different than the circus trip that the Bulls took earlier in the season. First, because we are missing our top Center in Joakim Noah and Second, because we are deeper into the season and been able to figure out who’s going to consistently play well. This has to be the first time where I have seen the Bulls look lax on defense and play uninspired. Giving up 101 and 109 points to the Golden State Warriors and the Portland Trail Blazers is not my idea of playing well on the road - especially having blown these two teams out earlier in the season
Game 1: vs. Golden State
Somehow the Warriors were able to smother Rose on defense, only allowing him 14 points, 10 assists, and 9 turnovers. Boozer picked up the lack of scoring with 21 points, and 10 rebounds but it wasn’t enough against the Warriors, who had Monta Ellis score 33 points and Stephan Curry who scored 23. Curry and Ellis sparked a run early in the 4th quarter that pretty much sealed the deal against the Bulls who were not able to consistently mount an attack against the Warriors…
Game 2: vs. Portland
This game further proves why we desperately need Noah back in the lineup as we had no answer for LaMarcus Aldridge, who had a monster game with 42 points - pounding the Bulls in the paint and was able to hit 15-17ft jumper. The Bulls were also not able to contain Andre Miller who scored 27 points with 11 assists. Yea, Derrick got money with 36 points of his own but the Bulls were not able to get much going on offense. And he also had a crazy slam in the fourth quarter. Another game where the Bulls looked sleep on defense. And with Luol getting in early foul trouble, the Bulls didn’t many other options for Blazers - who are a pretty decent team so I’m not suprised by the way they played.
After the game Nicolas Batum quoted saying that Rose can’t play defense because of how Miller was able to score against the Bulls. Who is this guy?
This short losing streak only proves that we need our big guy, Noah, back on the court…He’s been practicing with no pain and is probably scheduled to come back after the All-Star game.
really this was one of the first ALL-STAR colorways… Pip killed the game with these
I still want these. Pippen Nike Air Maestro All-Star.
Bulls Avenge an Earlier Lost to The Clips Last Night
Coming into last night’s game, the Clipppers had won 9 straight games at home and were 14-7 in their last 21 games. But the Bulls were too much for the young team that was missing Eric Gordon as the Bulls won last night 106-88 avenging an earlier lost to the Clips’ at Home in December. You figured this would be a great game featuring two of the NBA’s future stars in Rose and Griffin and neither disappointed, but Rose had Griffin’s number last night. The Bulls are currently on a 6 game winning streak…
Teams continue to give Derrick Rose the green light to shoot when the Bulls play pick and roll basketball and he punished the Clippers from the perimeter and inside early and often in the game scoring 32 points with 11 assists. He made three 3-pointers early and finished the first quarter with 13 points. Rose also hit the clips with has become his patented Reverse lay up - even making Blake Griffin look dumbfounded after he split the defense. Deng also had a good showing with 26 points, as well as Booz with 16 points. The Bulls also played well on the boards out-rebounding the Clippers 41 to 30 and shot 51% from the field. You can tell the Clippers are not a great shooting team without Gordon who is out with an ankle injury.
Blake Griffin had 32 points and 13 Rebounds for the Clippers in a loss but didn’t disappoint on the highlights as he posterized Kyle Korver (see in the below post) and had a reverse jam over Taj…The kid is crazy but was held in check by the Bulls defense in the 2nd half, only scoring 7 points. Blake has to be trying to figure out his way out of the Clippers sooner or later…
The Bulls 34-14 start is the best they’ve had since their ‘97-98 campaign and puts them closer to that number one spot for the Eastern Conference. You gotta think that when Joakim Noah returns shortly after the All-Star break it will be open season for all teams with no low post prescence. We haven’t had a good chance to see Noah, Booz, and Rose on the floor together so when Noah gets back it will be interesting to see how the Bullls play…Up next on this west coast swing for the Bulls are the Golden State Warriors…
