Good news:Rose doesn't have a torn ACL

Bad news:Rose has a torn meniscus.

Bulls just have to stay above .500 for a few months which isn't hard in the east.

Best case scenario for D Rose would be returning by around the All-Star break, but my gut's feelings are saying he would be out the entire season. $:-\$

Dimitrius · « **Reply #353 on:** November 24, 2013, 10:28:06 AM »

That's not your gut feeling telling you that, that's DRose's history telling you that.

Rose out for season. Sad.

Kobe got a 2 year extension for $48.5 million... I love Kobe but damn is that bad!

Lol the Lakers are becoming the Knicks of the west.

Syzzle · « **Reply #357 on:** November 28, 2013, 01:08:37 AM »

No wonder they can't score on anybody the other team knows whats coming.

As much as I dislike Kobe, the basketball fan inside of me is a little sad we're never going to see him deep in the playoffs again.

Azyiu · « **Reply #360 on:** December 01, 2013, 05:32:30 AM »

Speaking of Kobe, he maybe back by Friday @ Kings? Barely seven months after his Achilles injury? Wow!

Azyiu · « **Reply #361 on:** December 03, 2013, 07:38:30 AM »

I can't recall the last time the whole division (Atlantic) was this bad! None of these guys are even close to .500! And the worst thing is the Knicks (current last place in the division), owner of a 9-game slide, are only 3 games behind the Raptors! In 2003 David Stern insisted to guarantee each division winner a playoffs spot, and home court in the first round, no less! I bet he never saw a division as sucky as this year's Atlantic, right?

Syzzle · « **Reply #362 on:** December 03, 2013, 07:57:01 AM »

I would like to take this opportunity to laugh at the Knicks who didn't win a single game in November, and are tied for the worst record in the East when teams are trying to tank this year.

Don't know what went on behind closed door, but I thought it was a bad move (at least bad for PR) on Kidd's part.

Jaq · « **Reply #367 on:** December 04, 2013, 08:12:42 AM »

It might just be the shots that the highlight shows are using, but every time I see Jason Kidd on the sidelines anymore, he looks like he's one second away from yelling "I DON'T HAVE A FUCKING CLUE WHAT I'M DOING!"

chrisbDTM · « **Reply #368 on:** December 05, 2013, 07:34:31 PM »

joey crawford needs to retire. holy shit, screw that guy. calls a foul on EVERYTHING, then T's up everyone even faster. The knicks are up 30 and he's still dragging the game out and making it all about him. a little transparency in the officiating crew would be nice

Watched the Pacers @ Spurs game. Sure, the Spurs' starters didn't play up to their level from the 2nd qtr onward, but the Pacers' bench has to be the worst one among top teams! They almost gave away an entire 26-point-lead in the 4th qtr alone! TO after TO, and they barely played any D.

Syzzle · « **Reply #371 on:** December 08, 2013, 05:47:49 AM »

Thats exactly why the Pacers aren't as big a threat to Miami as the media wants people to believe. Miami's bench extends leads when they come into the game, and they've closed out multiple games this year. The Pacers are also making the mistake of going for the 1st seed in November/December if they don't start pacing themselves they won't have anything left for the playoffs, and Miami will steal the 1st seed in February/March.

You sir are mostly correct about the Pacers' bench there. IMHO their starters are red hot right now, but that can't be said about their bench; and that's pretty disappointing for a team supposedly among the elite.

Thats probably their first missed lob since CP3 joined the Clippers.

I was cool to hear Doc get all choked up in the press conference after the game. The video they played between the 1st and second quarter and his response to it was a great moment.

Aefenwelg · « **Reply #376 on:** December 12, 2013, 10:27:59 AM »

I just want to report in and say the Bulls are doing a pretty good job with the tank.

Losses to Milwaukee and New York; it's tough to watch, but it's for the greater good.

The only thing is Deng has been "out", but he'll get traded, so I think this is signs of things to come.

Likewise for the Lakers.

Losing Nash for the last 12 games and counting... and then Farmar went down... now even Blake is out!

With Kobe back and not at a 100%, but with ZERO PG... fun fun fun...

It seems the Nets are picking up their game lately. I wonder how much that has to do with Kidd waiving Frank out.

Syzzle · « **Reply #380 on:** December 13, 2013, 09:06:05 AM »

Pretty sure it has more to do with Deron Willams coming back than anything.

good luck out-tanking the Bucks. A 3pt miracle from Dunleavy and Bucks fans are smiling.

Aefenwelg · « **Reply #383 on:** December 14, 2013, 09:33:41 AM »

What a performance by Kobe! A near quadruple-double!

21pts, 7 rebounds, 8 assists and 7 TOs!
