The Bulls are hardly any different than before.  Not enough to beat Miami.  The defense can close in around Rose, Rose isn't great at actually being a PG, and there's not enough to step up to help him.

As I've said!

I really do like Indy's chances better.  West, Hibbert, Scola can all score on the block.  Paul George is very dynamic.  Stephenson still showing play making potential.  George Hill is a reliable shooter.

Very close game in LA. Barely been more than 2 points in it for the whole match.

How embarrassing for Doc. The Lakers don't have Howard or Kobe (Addition by Subtraction?), with nothing coming in to replace either of those guys, and it looks like the Lakers will still win.

Lakers are running a much more "classic D'Antoni" offense without Kobe and Dwight.

And I'm pretty sure the Clippers came in more than expecting to win this game.

I'm actually kind of... rooting for the Lakers to win? :-X

They're playing hard, and it's almost... fun(?!) watching these dudes torch Doc and Co.

It's only one game. So I won't take too much from it. But the Clippers didn't really look that great to me tonight. And now they will play the Warriors soon.
Peace through Tyranny

Looking forward to the next Bulls vs Heat game.

Chicago had a rough night. Joakim Noah only played 5 of the first 18+ minutes. Deng and J.Butler were on the bench in foul trouble. And they got toasted by Miami's second unit while those three guys were on the bench. The only period in the game where Miami really outplayed Chicago.

I don't think yesterday's game will prove a true reflection of how close these two teams are.

Thibs might need to go away from Nazr Mohammed in that 2nd unit though. Makes them too slow against Miami's small ball lineup. Chris Andersen's superior quickness and mobility beating Nazr to too many rebounds. They should play Taj Gibson at center versus C.Andersen instead. Go small themselves when Booz + J.Noah are resting.

The Bulls aren't setup to handle foul trouble at all, Hinrich worries me for their backup guard position too.

Rose needs more time to get back into the NBA game too.

This season reminds me of that Kinks song "Lola" Girls will boys and boys will be girls - mixed up bundled up world.

I wanted him on draft night and last night couldn't help but be sad we didn't take Norris Cole.  Looked very good.  I really like his game.

Given that some places have picked the Lakers for dead last, I can understand rooting for them to win enough games to not get a top five draft pick while also rooting for them to lose enough games to miss the playoffs.
