GT: Hawks vs. Bulls - 1.17.15

[hawkfan]

Going to be a tough battle.
Former Hawk draft pick Pau Gasol, Rose, and Noah lead the Bulls.
Hawks going into a tough arena.

Will be very interesting.

[atljonesbro]

Not sure about tough, but maybe Chicago might make it interesting.

[beastee]

Bulls are 2 starters down and don't play well at home, but they need a big win.

[emaugust]

Oh, so we are gonna have a game thread for this one?

Seriously though, why are there no Bulls game threads lately?

Post up game threads for Bulls games.

[Dr. Ice]

hawks beat the wiz by 30+

hawks beat the raps by 20+ on the road a few days later

At this rate the bulls need to just hope that they can only lose by single digits

[emaugust]

I guess so. I haven't because usually boards always have a dude who kinda.. owns it. Don't wanna step on toes.

Looking forward to tomorrow but if the bulls can't get boards we are toast.

Like I said, bulls are not at full strength, so you catch them at a good time. But rose is looking up for it.

[hawkfan]

Let's go Hawks.

[BuffaloBill]

Hawks by at least 50

[Basketbolero]

Go and check Rose's stats on back to backs this season...

[CHi1PriDe]

Number 1 in attendance stadium vs the ghost town

Here we go!

[Richesly]

Arena is so quiet, It's a joke.

[beastee]

Arena is so quiet, It's a joke.
It's another sellout. And look...they are actually in their seats before midway in the second. Bulls also don't need a gimmick like a fan zone to produce fake cheering.

[atljonesbro]

In North Carolina with no way to watch the game :(. I really wanted to see this one.

[Richesly]

Rose is terrible lol.

[Richesly]

In North Carolina with no way to watch the game :(. I really wanted to see this one.

Summary: Most quiet sell-out arena I've ever heard. Rose is sucking ass so far. Al Horford got off to a good start just to get subbed out for some reason. Shelvin Mack sucks.

Teague is playing just as bad. Rose has 4 assists in the first quarter, so its not awful.

It's because the Hawks haven't started the blowout yet. Halfway through the second, the shenanigans will begin

[atljonesbro]

From my box score watching it looks like the Bulls offense has absolutely no clue how to handle our defense. Can anyone confirm?

[Richesly]

No Clear Path? Is this a joke? Wow refs.

[beastee]

Bulls are really awful at home this year though. Not sure why.

[J Shuttlesworth]

No Clear Path? Is this a joke? Wow refs.
lol seriously. Scott w/ the and 1 to make up for it though. Ball don't lie

[Richesly]

Money Mike!

[navy]

Spurs are Hawks West.

[ArbitraryWater]

Hawks exposing all these "contenders"..

wipping the floor with these kids

[beastee]

Nice shot for Scott. Was his foot on the line? Hard to tell

[T_L_P]

Spurs are Hawks West.

:biggums:

[Richesly]

Wish Antic wasn't hurt. I would love to have his three point shooting. But Brand is doing pretty damn good.

[PsychoBe]

i was a little perplexed as to why budd felt the need to bring in the bench so early, but then i realized that it didn't matter.

the players change but the system stays the same :applause:

He can afford to coast when D Rose is playing like an absolute scrub

[beastee]

Yeah. Brand beat the bulls in Atlanta. He made a huge difference and the bulls just let him shoot every time.

[J Shuttlesworth]

KOR

MOTTHER****ING

VER

:bowdown:

[TaLvsCuaL]

Bulls offense has been truly terrible. Too many turnovers and indecisions, the defense has not been good either.

[navy]

:biggums:
Let's be honest. Bud taught Pop everything he knows.

[Dr. Ice]

no scroder and apparently no more mack...who is going to be our backup pg in the next half?

[ABG]

Spurs are Hawks West.
:rockon:

[beastee]

Damn. Rose to Gibson is smooth.

[Richesly]

Both our back up PGs are hurt... Teague will have to play the rest of the game... damn, he gonna be tired.

[Richesly]

Yeah. Brand beat the bulls in Atlanta. He made a huge difference and the bulls just let him shoot every time.

You can't blame injuries for losing this time. We have 3 injured players lol.

[T_L_P]

Let's be honest. Bud taught Pop everything he knows.

Partially agree here.

Chip, Chad, Sloan, Presti and Bud made Pop.

[beastee]

You can't blame injuries for losing this time. We have 3 injured players lol.
All subs. We have 2 starters out. Not even close to the same.

[Hawksauce]

What happened to schroder?

[ProfessorMurder]

Korver is up to 53.3% on 3s

[beastee]

What happened to schroder?
Seriously. I wanted to see his progress.

[Milbuck]

Kirk is useless. Always been a fan but he's just useless at this age. There is no reason for him to be approaching 30 mpg.

[Dr. Ice]

Seriously. I wanted to see his progress.
Hurt apparently, was seen in locker room with stimulant boot on, so doesnt look like he's playing today

[Richesly]

All subs. We have 2 starters out. Not even close to the same.

Oh god, no Mike Dunleavy!!!

Plus Millsap is getting hammered on drives and isn't getting a whistle.

We are missing our best players on the bench.

Teague has no back up dude. Both are hurt. No Antic. We are ****ed.

[beastee]

Teague playing 40 minutes will probably help the hawks to be honest.

[beastee]

No Noah either. If you were missing korver and horford you would be making excuses.

[nba_55]

No Noah either. If you were missing korver and horford you would be making excuses.
No Noah actually helps Bulls more than Hawks.

[Richesly]

Refs refusing to give us any whistles. Blatant home cooking...

Schroeder can apparently play, his ankle is sore but he's not out.

[TaLvsCuaL]

9 points lead is not too much considering how badly Chicago played

[beastee]

You complain about the refs way too much. You said the same thing last night against Toronto. Gibson and gasol have been hacked as well. Pretty fair called game actually.

Toronto was poorly officiated as well. Even the guys on raptorforums.com agreed.

I legit think there is a bounty on us lol. The first group of refs to end our streak get a bonus check.

[Cocaine80s]

Never thought id cheer for the bulls :biggums:

[J Shuttlesworth]

Never thought id cheer for the bulls :biggums:
wtf is wrong with you? hawks ftw

Ironic coming from the guy who spend the last 4 years in miami heat threads complaining about ever single call, unless it went against the heat

[beastee]

Rose heating up...

[J Shuttlesworth]

KK again :applause:

[T_L_P]

3 and a half minutes of pure basketball.

[PsychoBe]

that sequence :eek:

korver blocks butler, runs the length of the floor, gets the ball and hits the 3 in transition.

how can you stop this team?

[Hawksauce]

Korver is just automatic. Shit is insane...

[Richesly]

You and Atlantajonesbro are so f.cking annoying.

Shut up and watch the game you f.cking retard.

The hell is your problem?

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Not sure if it's just Chicago playing sluggish (nevermind it being a regular season game), but Atlanta looks good. Like REALLY good. Dare I say an athletic version of the Spurs? :eek:

[atljonesbro]

You and Atlantajonesbro are so f.cking annoying.

Shut up and watch the game you f.cking retard.
:lol Bulls bout to catch another L from the Eastern confrence juggernauts.

[navy]

These hawks announcers are such homers. :oldlol:

Great team to root for.

[J Shuttlesworth]

Korver can shoot. Wish bulls woulda held onto him.

[atljonesbro]

Great team to root for.
As a hawks fan i love them. Such homers and get so excited :applause:

[JebronLames]

K love for korver and millsap

[beastee]

Hawks have some active hands. That closes so many passing lanes.

You guys just get worse and worse....

[navy]

Korver missed.

[Dr. Ice]

who the hell does rose think he is, a good point guard?

[beastee]

Rose is definitely back.

[T_L_P]

You guys just get worse and worse....

They should be banned from making threads, if you could somehow do that.

[navy]

Rose is definitely back.
No. He does this alot.

[atljonesbro]

I can make threads about the Hawks if i want to. Just like any one else.

[T_L_P]

I can make threads aboit the Hawks if i want to. Just like any one else.

I know you can. But you shouldn't.

What do you think all those threads even bring? Nobody takes them seriously, so why make them?

Perfectly reasonable hawks related thread that got trolled for no reason

[JebronLames]

Deng CAVS will have to play them in the second round.

[kunk75]

no one believes in them but they are one of only teams that can shoot.

[hawkfan]

Looking solid.

[Kblaze8855]

Bro, I beat the shit out of you in debate. You don't have the right to say anything.

Im...not sure ive ever actually argued with you about anything. I see a topic we discussed how you and other Hawk fans generated the hate you complain about because nobody cared you existed till you started making topics...where you pretty much admitted it with:



Hawks had no HATE because no one even realized they were tearing the league up. Us hawk fans have the right to discuss them rather then just make threads about superstars.

If you want to call that a debate...go ahead.

[kunk75]

nice game to watch, these teams are pretty much douche bag free

[T_L_P]

:biggums:

[Milbuck]

Yup. Rose is back. Just needs to build the consistency. He can play like the former MVP on any given night, just needs to keep working towards being that guy every night.

[beastee]

Good game. Bulls hanging around down 2 starters. Not an excuse, just reality. But atlanta is the best team in the league right now for sure.

[Milbuck]

Bulls are going to lose this game but this is an extremely positive sign from Rose.

[Milbuck]

Millsap and Horford are so damn versatile, so many possibilities with them. Passing, stretching the floor, mobile, it's no surprise Atlanta's offense is so smooth. And Teague has really matured as an orchestrator. Hawks are for real. I could really see them make the finals even if Cleveland and Chicago get it together.

[Richesly]

Good game. Bulls hanging around down 2 starters. Not an excuse, just reality. But atlanta is the best team in the league right now for sure.


We had an SF running the 1 to back up teague.

No Antic, who is a main piece to our system.

You guys are missing Noah. Mike Dunleavy sucks.

[beastee]

Yup. Rose is back. Just needs to build the consistency. He can play like the former MVP on any given night, just needs to keep working towards being that guy every night.
4 good games in a row. His assists are way up. Still plays well in the 4th. Once Dunleavy is back they will be much better at spreading the floor.

[konex]

Bulls need a little more firepower

[beastee]

We had an SF running the 1 to back up teague.

No Antic, who is a main piece to our system.

Wrong. Dunleavy stretches the floor. I guess you will find out in may.

[atljonesbro]

Looks looks like the Hawks are gonna do it again :applause: Big time wins over the past two days. Now we can head home for a home stand and really extend this lead in the east.

[Cocaine80s]

Wrong. Dunleavy stretches the floor. I guess you will find out in may.
Are you a Chicago fan or ATL?

[Richesly]

Wrong. Dunleavy stretches the floor. I guess you will find out in may.


Sure, but Hinrich played nicely this game and stretched the floor so you guys weren't missing him is what I am saying. Also, Dunleavy doesn't really play the defense Hinrich does.

[nba_55]

Wrong. Dunleavy stretches the floor. I guess you will find out in may.
LOL, Bulls better avoid that 4th seed if they want to it to 2nd round.

[hawkfan]

Very solid, workmanlike effort. Great job.

:applause:

[beastee]

Good game atlanta. This will be a good battle in the playoffs

Bulls. I'm a transplant, like just about everyone else. I respect the hawks and enjoy going to Phillips though.

[Rose'sACL]

Bulls. I'm a transplant, like just about everyone else. I respect the hawks and enjoy going to Phillips though.
?????

[Milbuck]

Stacey just said exactly what I was thinking. MDJ couldn't be back sooner. Spaces the floor, cuts down Kirk's minutes, lets Jimmy go back to the 2 and bully smaller guards like he should.
4 good games in a row. His assists are way up. Still plays well in the 4th. Once Dunleavy is back they will be much better at spreading the floor.
Yeah he's had a terrific stretch before, and then followed it with that garbage stretch, and now he's performing again..."he's back" might not be the best way to phrase it but he's certainly still got it. The best part of this inconsistency is that he does seem to get up for big games, he knows he needs to attack against quality teams.

[Richesly]

Bulls. I'm a transplant, like just about everyone else. I respect the hawks and enjoy going to Phillips though.

Great game bro. We need to meet up if you ever head to phillips. I'm not as bad in real life as I am on this board, I swear.

Wish poido was more like you, though. Guy has no class.

[Richesly]

?????
Think he means he moved from Chicago to ATL, so he's a Bulls fans.

Most people in Atlanta are transplants, meaning they moved from one city to another.

Sure thing. We had our fight but it's all good, you know the game. Phillips will be rocking now. Im actually looking into season tix with a buddy. I'll let you know if we do. I love the game and that stadium is actually really nice.

[MARK HENSON]

HAWKS ALREADY BEAT THEM ON ESPN!:coleman: :coleman: :coleman:

And by the way hawks fans.... you just swept the class of the east and are on back to back 12 game streaks....you deserve a brag post I guess...:cheers:

I got tickets to the Portland game, It'd be my 9th game that I've been to this season.

And I mean the only times we've had trouble was when I was out of control with my Hawks threads lol, so I can't blame you.
