I think the Bulls pickup of Rip Hamilton is overrated as well. IMO the Bulls needed a two guard that can create a shot for himself or others off the dribble, Rip is not that guy. DRose is the only guy on the team that can create his own shot or get others shots due to penetration and that killed them last year. They had a knock down shooter in Kyle Korver who could play the 2, and Rip isn't that great of an on ball defender either. Also hurts their floor spacing because Rip is more of a mid range shooter, not necessarily a 3 point shooter.

Go to was the wrong wording. They dont have anyone to get their own shot, or anyone who can really score, imo. Obviously, if your go to, you are probably starting. But their bench is full of catch and shoot guys or guys who get garbage buckets. No one to give the ball to with 10 seconds on the shot clock to get any type of shot off.

This is seriously some of the ugliest bball Ive ever seen. How many damn 3's can possibly be fired up and run nothing on offense. Did these guys do anything in their extended time off. I hope the Bulls get better as the season goes on if this is going to be the team that gives Miami a run in the East.

What a final 2 minutes from the bulls. Thought for sure the ball out of bounds off Noah had sealed it.

Yup. Nothing worse than watching bad basketball. Especially bad NBA basketball. I avoid Charlotte, Sacramento, et al. all season. I watch the good matchups and then really start watching in the playoffs. I'm much more of a baseball and football guy

I have never liked Lebron and now I loathe Dan Gilbert. The Comic Sans email to Stern protesting the Paul trade was icing on the cake. That's why I don't root for Cleveland

Theyll be fun to watch thats for sure. Im sure TNT will have quite a few of their games on the 1030 slot, especially if the Lakers start to slide off and might lose some of their national coverage
