bump.

96-86 over miami in over time

Rose 1 from 13. They should have left him out longer to rest. Great bench effort.

 

[Richo]

I thought they were GONE with 20 seconds left.....to come back and win by 10 with Rose missing so many was a great effort!

There is NO deeper team in the NBA right now... 47 points from the bench?

Not so good to see Rose struggling a bit, and would like to see Rip get more shots but with the amount of basketball they have both missed so far this season, it's not surprising or concerning at this stage.

Korver gets the job done more regularly then he was last year, Taj does his thing along with Asik giving Noah a good rest and Watson has come along in leaps and bounds and he is a guy that is going to be big for us this post season.

The team we have now is better then the team that faced Miami in the ECF last year, better prepared, better balanced and with Rose and Rip getting more time together will be so much better offensively!

We will have Miami for breakfeast in a 7 game series!

agreed abut depth. Only issue that may cause them to hick up is composure/experinece in the finals.

scary thing is I don't thing this team has reached full potential yet.

 

[Cobretti]

great win today. another OT game. rose somewhat back in form. poor bastard got hit in the nose and blood was shed.

deng was quiet but damn did noah step it up. hopefully he will take thatform into the finals

 

[Cobretti]

well finals are almost upon us. secured top seat. hopefully rose and hamilton can get some form back in these last two games.

 

[aussiemjfreak]

Rip has been scoring well towards the end of the season, if he can improve slightly and carry it in to the PO's we should be right! Rose will get the job done I just really hope Boozer and Noah can lift for the playoffs and show how much of a front court menacing team they can be!

Fingers crossed the boys keep rolling how they have been, I hear first 4 games are streched over 8 days which is great for rose recovery. Everyone doing their job and traveling nicely. Bring on the playoffs

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

Wow that camera shot from the back shows the awkward position the knee was in when he jump hopped into that shot doesn't look too good

 

[ozballer23]

Yep, almost looked like he hyper extended it!

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

No luck this year for that guy, or is it the trainers or what??? So brutal, love watching him play!

He give 110% every game injured or not. With a normal season, he had time to recover and get over niggling injuries. With the compacted format, it has really taken a toll on him. That's evident through out the league. He'll be right next season, hopefully a good rest will do the kid some good!

 

[ozballer23]

It's official, Rose is done for the year

NBA talk
Ok so for everyone doubting the Derrick Rose ACL report. Its official. NBA ESPN, and the Bulls have just announced that he will indeed miss the rest of the NBA Playoffs with a torn ACL. Praying for a speedy recovery for DRose. -Wasif

Terrible stuff.

 

[gemini0928]

I watched the replay and it looks like his left knee buckled when his left foot touches the floor before the that take off!

I hate ACL Injuries

1st Rubio and Now Rose

 

[Mr Paparazzi]

One of the most exciting players to watch and sadly the NBA wanted a 65 game season in 123 days is crazy.
