I have no idea how the play turned out, or what happened before the pic. I turned the game off before halftime lol

I'm going to make a semi bold prediction and say the Pistons will finish 2nd in the central.

 

[buzzy]

They should. But the Bulls might still be better.

Time will tell. I think the Bulls offseason really was just geared towards Rose coming back. Outside of that, they did nothing lol.
Though I wouldn't doubt they try moving Boozer or Gibson.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

If the Bulls don't make a move, I don't think that team is all that different now then they have been to start the season. I'm not saying Rose would have never picked up his play this season, but how he was playing at that point in time, he's not a big loss at all. He was playing horrific.

It sucks they let Nate go though. No real scorer who can create their shot yet


If Jimmy Butler can progress however, and start to be Paul George-ish, then he could probably run the point and have Snell at SG. But I don't think he's there yet, if he gets there at all

 

[RipCity32]

Anyone ever think Rose is an all-star again in this league?

I think he is probably as mentally weak as you could be right now.

 

[NV]

He needs to become more of a spot-up shooter. Idk if he can continue to rely on his explosiveness and getting to the basket.

Why do people continue to say this?

Why do people continue to say this?

because those injuries tend to do that to people.

 

[buzzy]

Because the mental barrier already extended his first recovery period.
Now with issues on both knees and the second injury happening even more sudden and with less force, wouldn't you be hesitant to run and jump around at full speed?

It sucks how nate is treated

Curry is hurt so he gets time in oakland and the next season is tossed to the curb

Then goes to the bulls without rose and plays well but over plays his stock

And now he's averaging 17 minutes a game

 

[Mexi]

I'd rather play Plumlee over Garnett

That's just speculation, though.  He hasn't really done anything to prove he's mentally weak yet.

 

[Mexi]

Sixers drafted MCW and traded Jrue for Noel and a 1st rounder in a deep draft

Hinkie owns

Except taking forever to come back after the first injury. 
 
I'm not saying he is going to be mentally weak once he has fully recovered. He certainly didn't look like he wasn't trusting his body or anything like that this season. I'm just saying that getting to the point of full recovery, mentally, might take longer for him than for other people.

John wall had a 360 dunk earlier
Took over the 4th

And tried a 2 on 1 behind the back layup with 40 secs left lol

He's awesome

 

[Pugz]

wall still screams career loser

may just be washington.

i do like him, just not as a franchise guy.

 

[Mexi]

Bradley is going to be a beast in 2-3 years
