Chicago Bulls 2009-10 Thread

reports tonight of a physical confrontation between paxson and del negro after the bulls game vs. suns where noah player more than his prescribed minutes as he recovers from pf.

both need to be gone, imo.

Totally right, but I think Pax writes his ticket a la Ozzie and Kenny Williams. Reinsdorf loves those three.


How about that Sheed tip in tonight?

The difference is that Guillen's won a championship as a manager so I can see the love for him. Why Pax gets a free pass is beyond me.

I don't disagree, but Paxson won a few titles for him as a player.

Cavs looking fresh. Resting Shaq and LeBron is going to pay off. Derrick put it on them today, but Shaq pushed Noah out of the game and nobody else stepped up. Even with Deng doing as good a job as you could expect on LeBron, it's not near enough.

Still, with me having no illusions as to this series (the Bulls might steal one if they have a hot shooting night), I enjoy seeing D Rose play like a superstar in games that count. That never sucks.

The season ended three days ago and they still haven't fired Vinny. What is up with this? Does this mean that Pax is in jeopardy too?

I hope, not a Pax fan. And don't you have to tip your cap to Vinny for bringing them back from the dead? I didn't think they had a chance in hell of making the playoffs in Feb.

Del Negro definitely deserves some credit for getting the team into the playoffs amid injuries and trades. I would much rather see Paxson go but really both need to go.

The rumor du jour around here is that Phil is coming back to coach the Bulls.

There is some crazy [expletive] flying around, but I'm thinking we end up with Boozer, Byron Scott and hopefully cap space to go after Carmelo next offseason.

I think I'd rather see Bosh here than Boozer. I think LeBron and Wade are pipe dreams. Johnson would be nice, but a power forward who can score is a better fit.

100% true, but if you give Bosh a max, you can't give Carmelo a max next offseason. I don't want to go all in with Bosh because while the difference between he and Boozer may be 3 seed and a 5 or 6 seed, it's not getting over on LeBron and looking further down the line, the getting over on LeBron or Durant and Co. I think with someone like Boozer, Carmelo, Noah and Rose you'd have a shot.
