Um you do realize they're not getting by the Heat and/or Pistons, right? :p And the Pacers aren't an easy matchup either. Bust for that team, I think making it is an accomplishment in itself. Ben Gordon is sick in the clutch. Scored double-digits in the fourth 21 times at last count I saw. Pretty darn good for a rookie. I like the kid so I'm actually rooting for them (after my Nets).

Their not getting by the heat or pistons? I believe they beat the Heat twice already. I don't know about the Pistons.

(even worst that the Babe Ruth trade)

Well, let's wait until it causes an 86 year curse to make that declaration :p . Plus um I still think the Ruth trade was worse. I mean the guy was unmatched. People today can legitimately still argue that Chamberlain was a better big man tha Shaq. I'm not necessarily saying it's what I believe but I've heard the argument and its debatable. Ruth hit AND pitch extraordinarily well. And he was a fat bum and drunk. If the guy took care of himself he probably could ahve hit more than 800 HRs.

ANYway, back to topic. Like I said, after my Nets (who might not even make it) I'm pulling for Da' Bulls. In seven games against Detroit or Miami, with the other teams both having home court, that's a tall task.

Well, I haven't visited in a while and thought I'd update the thread a bit.

Luol is going to miss the rest of the season. He had to have surgery on a torn ligament in his wrist. Should be ready by next season's opening camp. The crazy thing about him is he's just 19 and already in the top 5 among rookies in points, rebounds, and assists. Well, I just checked and he's 6th in rebounds likely due to him not playing anymore. The even crazier thing is the Bulls got him from the Suns for this years 1st round draft pick. With the way the Bulls are playing that's obviously not going to be a lottery pick and you just know the Suns would be that much better had they kept him.

The Nuggets are the hottest team in the NBA...ever almost. No team has done as well after the All-Star break as they have (not even the '97 Bulls) but those 2 losses came agains the Suns, so come playoff time we'll see.

The thing I like most about the Bulls is they play defense. While Jordan was great and key to the '90s run, the defense of him, Pippen, Grant, and Rodman was the key since it led to easy baskets, steals, and stops. And, their average age is only like 22 or 23 if you take out the veterans that won't be around much longer.

    • I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.
    • CPPC states can also be messed around with in most UEFI settings but aren't as robust as the ones that the Windows Scheduler can provide! Make sure you look into what your motherboard also has before customizing for the Windows Scheduler.
