Official Game Thread: Hawks at Bulls -- At Long Last, The Season Opener!

[NBASupes]

If we keep up the switching scheme as our main defense, we can do big things. It really helps when you got Cam and Hunter with Trae defensive BBIQ.

It was just a little fun ribbing after comments like these before the game:

But I won't insinuate that @Peoriabird wants the Hawks to lose anymore.

I suggest you take the mod's advise.  I have never said anything about or addressed you yet you see fit to address me.  So I don't know what your problem is but what ever it is you need to not involve me.

It also benefits JC since he's better at one-on-one defense and gaurding guys in space than going around screens.

He's not good at guarding in space but he is solid m2m when he doesn't have to move as much.

PB, how did you think LP did after the Memphis stinker yesterday

For sure, but he can improve on that end cause he has quick feet, just needs better timing and awareness. I don't think its possible for him to ever be good at manuevering around screens since he's a bit stiff laterally.

I suggest not posting on a message board if you don’t want anyone to respond to your messages. Feel free to put me on ignore and you’ll never get a notification from me again. It won’t hurt my feelings.

Y'all too good of posters to be beefing. I am the beefier, let's move on guys and let's kill this one.

They weren't running anything in preseason so I reserved judgement. The defensive intensity certainly looked better though

Ok...so you want to keep this going. You do realize that you started this so if I start to attack you, you should know why. I even asked the mod to step in before it escalated but it didn't stop you so whatever happens going forward is on you.  I dont even know who you are nor have I even say one thing to you but now you've got my attention

Now you're just making it weird. I'm not trying to end up on an episode of 48 Hours over some basketball jokes. I yield.

Nothing like drama, ah so refreshing!

'Tis good to see somebody around here got all their shopping and gift-wrapping done!

Speaking of drama... Flashback to the last time an embarrassing loss to the Hawks at the United Center led to earth-shaking, franchise-quaking drama. Zach and Lauri, here's how you wound up here!

I love Butler and DWade but they needed to hear this and be put in their place. Loved seeing this and they did concede in the end. This was when I started to like Rondo, and the fact that he wasn’t wearing green anymore.

Interesting to see who was helping and who was hurting that stellar 98 DRtg...
