Rose Defies Critics Sitting Tall
Posted on 10 May 2013 by Steven Keys.
“To (play) or not to (play), that is the (thorny) question” swirling around Derrick Rose and every NBA roundtable on the North American continent. The beef: Is the 2010-11 MVP still recuperating and wisely sitting out these playoffs or clutching to tight to fear of re-injuring his reconstructed and all important knee? Some trust Derrick in this dust-up. Rose is the patient. It’s his knee....

Picking the NBA All-Star Game Reserves
Posted on 22 Jan 2013 by Warren Shaw.
The NBA All Star starters were named last week and for the most part the fans did a decent job of selecting the players who deserved to be there. It’s a flawed system so perfection can’t be expected. While the fans may have let biases cloud their decisions on a few players who will start, the coaches will try to fill out each roster in democratic and deserving fashion. Or at least so we hop...

Ahead of the Pace: NBA Central Division Preview
Posted on 19 Oct 2012 by Warren Shaw.
Pro Sports Blogging presses on with its NBA Season preview coverage taking a look at the NBA's Central Division. Chicago's recent dominance in the division seems to be at an end as the Bulls will be without their former MVP and perennial All-Star, Derrick Rose. Whether or not the Bulls can hold down the fort and make the playoffs until Rose returns remains to be seen. Indiana looks to be in t...

Lakers / Heat Stoke NBA ’12-13
Posted on 16 Oct 2012 by Steven Keys.
Consider this the year of LeBron. Not because he and his Heat team are a lock to repeat as champs in 2013. Au contraire, the new & improved Lakers will have a thing or two to say about who dons that crown come next June. Rather, it’s because this’ll be the first time in his 10-year NBA tenure that Mr. James can actually enjoy himself on a basketball court. Having garnered that elusive c...

Held Down…Celtics fall short to Bulls 88-79
Posted on 14 Jan 2012 by Warren Shaw.
If there is one thing that fans can take away from the Celtics 88-79 loss Friday night, it is that the Celtics are consistently inconsistent. A slow start, furious comeback, late offensive struggles, and getting abused on the boards describes just about every single Celtics game this season. Tonight was no different. After trailing by as many as 19 the Celtics launched a brilliant comeback to ...

Biding his time
Posted on 4 May 2011 by Frank Sullivan.
The last time someone called Tom Thibodeau their head coach was in 1989. At his alma mater, Salem State (Div. III) he began his life-long affair with basketball; as a player, assistant coach, and ultimately as head coach for three seasons, he brought the same fire, passion, and work ethic that has earned him the NBA’s Coach of the Year award this 2010-2011 season. For years he toiled away...

Running Mates
Posted on 28 Apr 2011 by Frank Sullivan.
Last summer all eyes were focused on South Beach, watching LeBron and Bosh flock to Miami to team up with D-Wade, forming the most hated threesome since the Jonas Brothers (arguable). While they were patting one another on the back and getting fitted for their “multiple championship” rings somewhere in the south side of Chicago Derrick Rose was lacing up his shoes and going to work....

KISSED BY A ROSE…
Posted on 11 Apr 2011 by Melissa Tzotzis.
Let’s just say prior to this season, not even a diehard Chicago Bulls’ fan would have even dreamed that Rose would be involved in the NBA MVP debate. Rose’s first two regular seasons in the league, the Bulls won 82 games and lost 82 games. He was known for his technique and driving to the basket, but now he is being recognized as a threat from long range as well. Let’s push fast forwa...

Miami Comes Up Short Against Bulls As Bosh Has a Historically Bad Night
Posted on 25 Feb 2011 by Sean Eckhardt.
If you were able to look up the definition of a back-n-forth game on google, you might just receive a free copy of Thursday night's game between the Bulls and Heat. In the first quarter, Chicago started out with a good inside game, on both the rebounding and scoring side as they jumped out to an early 7-2 lead. The Heat then turned on the jets. In an exhibition of speed that we h...

Clippers-Bulls Preview (Feb. 2)
Posted on 2 Feb 2011 by Taylor Smith.
Before they're exiled from Staples Center for just about all of February in favor of the Grammy Awards, the Los Angeles Clippers have some business to take care of. The Chicago Bulls come to L.A. having won five straight games, and will be looking to avenge a one-point loss to the Clippers on December 18 in Chicago. However, beating the Clippers at Staples Center is a tall order these days. Th...

Love ‘Em or Leave ‘Em Alone week 7
Posted on 5 Dec 2010 by Warren Shaw.
Injury and coaching inaptitude highlight this week’s edition of Love ‘Em or Leave ‘Em alone. Let’s get to work! Jerryd Bayless: Jose Calderon owners beware! Bayless has played well in 2 of his last 3 games highlighted by a 23pt, 7reb, 6ast and 5 made threes effort against the Knicks on Sunday. Bayless is not a pure point guard but is instant offense which Toronto seems to lack. It is g...
