Gotta admit, I’ve been paying a lot less attention to the NBA this season given that the Bulls have gone back to shit, so I haven’t been doing a lot of standings watching, but….

…. five freaking teams .250 or below? Sheesh….

The Pistons being a historically awful team makes me smile, though.

Think the Spurs just broke an 18 game losing streak, Pistons on a 22 game losing streak and Wizards have maybe won once in their last 20+ games. Incompetence is rampant.

Bulls have actually become somewhat entertaining to watch since Lavine has been out. Coby has put up All-star-esque type stats, Ayo and PatW are playing better. Youth is getting a chance to perform. They would have won at Miami last night if they could have just grabbed a defensive rebound.

Losing 23 games in a row is something.

Good NBA games are damn fun.

The thing that sucks about the NBA though is that there are just too many teams playing that we all know have zero chance every year, and that the game bogs down like crazy at the end due to intentional fouling. Can't fix the former, but the latter? Bring on the Elam ending.

Disagree

The whining, flopping and near constant throwing up of bad 3 pointers is not fun to watch IMO
Don't forget the Euro step, and very little defense. The superstar protection. James Harden.

The NBA is fun if you're not a fan of a team.
The NBA has turned into a high volume 3 point shooting contest and you call that fun? You and I have different defintions of the word "fun."

Cubs- top five system in baseball with a bunch of guys knocking on the door.

Internet- spend money on free agents!!!

Blackhawks- generational talent with nobody to play with while sitting on cap.

Internet- play the kids!!!

Bears- Generational QB and a defense building into something epic

Internet- draft a QB!!! Don't matter by the time he develops the defense will be figured out!!!

Skill on the offensive side is as good as it's ever been.

Yes and no. It's a completely different skill set required now than what it used to be.

Bulls won another nail biter. This time on the road in Philly who had won 6 straight and is one of the best teams in the NBA. Youth is being served on the Bulls and they're playing with more determination now than at any other time this season.

Breaking- Bulls are better then the Blackhawks.

Negativity towards the Bulls is encouraged.

Questioning the stupidity of the Blackhawks GM, isn't.

Go figure....
