This new baby has me away from the PC most the days. Hell it was hard to watch the Bulls melt to the Hawks last night. I would have loved to do game reviews for the Buck,Wiz and Hawks but with a new born it just wasn't possible. I am now shooting for a Magic review after tomorrows game. There wasn't much to say about the Hawks game that hasn't been said. The Bulls played sloppy and didn't put their foot on the Hawks throats. You have to have that killer instinct. The Bulls don't have that yet. Rose is still cold so lets hope some Florida sun helps warm that jumper.

On to the Bullsosphere!

Behind the box scores hits on a few points(yahoo) I have been thinking about most the year...

Sure, he's going to flame out in a few years in a way that will have Doug Collins, Larry Brown, Scott Skies, and Rick Vermeil saying, "geez, guy; chill out a little bit," but for now Thibs is the man.

I have often wondered if Tibs will start to grow old on the players. He demands a lot and you can tell he coaches,coaches and coaches which great since we came from a guy who was beyond clueless. I just know how good Skiles was before his tough ways grew old on players and they started to tune him out. I tweeted BlogaBull on his thoughts about Tibs going down that same road.

@dabullcrap I think so, as long as he has Rose's ear. Plus while he's very hard-nosed and screamy now, he could mellow as he gets more time

 I like the point that Rose responds to him well but this is year one and I can't see him going mellow due to his age and length in the league. Winning in the playoffs would be the difference between Skiles and Tibs. Getting to the ECF would be a huge deal for this team this year(win or lose it) which means they dig Tibs for the long term if I had to guess. Winning sells the players on any style of coach.

Behind the box scores also talks about the subbing Boozer and how Tibs rotations are a bit odd..

And what kills me, all year, is the way that Boozer leaves the court as soon asDerrick Rose(notes) does, instead of using Boozer as a go-to guy when the Bulls trot out their "can't score in an empty gym" bench crew in the second quarters of games.

I think this "can't score in an empty gym" group has been better than I thought they would be but they still lack something. Having Boozer over lap into this group would help us score more when this rotation takes the court. Also FYI Boozer didn't get enough touches in that Hawks game. Lets feed are first legit post since Elton freaking Brand.

More Blog a Bull. Since I didn't have time for the Hawks pecking out our eyes review... Blog a Bull did.

He(Al Horford) played so well and was such a huge part of their comeback I almost give him a pass for throwing the ball in the air like he won the NCAA title (and hugged Joakim as part of that feeling too?).

Al was off the hook. You know it was his night when he hits his first 3 ball of the season. Just like the Empire, Noah will Strike Back.

Pippen aint easy is back! They talk about the Rasual Butler signing. I am glad they had time to because I didn't.

It’s no secret that Keith ‘Bogus’ Bogans has not been the answer for the Bulls at shooting guard. In fact he raises far more questions.

Why is he starting? Why is he playing? Why is he getting paid to do what I’m doing right now.

A bit harsh but the truth hurts. Lets hope Butler can add a bit more to the SG once he gets in the flow.

Pippen Ain't Easy also has a Bulls Podcast worth checking out. By the Horns puts up a nice Hawks review and an honest one which I admire. He never derails like so many Bulls fans but keeps it real. Doug at Bulls Confidential goes over the SI article with the Rose text that was sent to Ledrama.
