Memphis @ Cleveland

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Just a quick reaction to our 4 new guys debuts:

West: He can run the break pretty well it looks like. He did some nice things defensively and had some good hustle plays. I don't remember him taking too many bad shots, but finished only 2-12 from the field. Did get 6 assists in 30 minutes playing basically a pick-up game

Wally: He shot 4-10 for 10 points which isn't bad. Looked a bit hesitant out there at first, hes gotta get used to just getting in some space and getting ready to shoot. Defense didn't seem overtly bad.

Big Ben: Damn I'm glad this guy is on our team now. Him and Z paired up are monstrous out there. They altered so many shots, both bigs had double doubles. To be fair, it was Memphis.

Joe Smith: Most impressive of the news guys to me tonight. This guy has a very nice mid-range shot, and he plays some good D too.
 
Larry and Drew are playing pretty good. I bet the Bulls-forums are on fire with happy fans! Good for them. Good for us. Everyone's happy!

And we get the ring! :thumbup:
 
I gotta say I'm lovin some Wallace right now. Not runnin around tryin to make shots. Great D. I'm def feeling this trade now but well see what happens when were up against a playoff team.
 
I just loved West's passing but he needs to work on his jumpers and positioning for LeBron to find him in his sweet spot.

On Ben... Where do I begin? He was smart and didn't underestimate the opponent. I love his energy. Suck it doubters: 12 10 when even Z and Bron corralled more than 15 boards combined. What now? Declining? If I hear that again I'll put my foot in your ass. Just joking. :D

Wally was solid. I'd love him on the small lineup. Why do I keep hearing "Sweet Escape" whenever he sinks his shots?

Joe was great! I love his mid-range game. Reminds me a lot of Ilgauskas. Now we know who to call when Z is out.
 
I think Wallace is just.. a monster.

With the 5 second call... He was doing that during garbage time, when the game was obviously won. I really liked seeing that.
 
This is slightly off topic but after seeing all of the commercials, I'm pretty sure Danny Ferry is Timothy P. Misny.

They look too much alike.
 
This is also a little off topic but who wants to sex Mutombo?
 
Looks like Da Bulls have woke-up... Houston is on a 7-0 run.
 
Everyone in our starting lineup had one block each. Dwayne and Wally both had a block too. Random stat..

Great game overall.

West struggled from the field but I liked what I saw. He handles the ball well and had some nice passes. He longer and more athletic than I thought.

Ben and Joe had great games. They were up against a really weak frontline from the Grizzlies but you can tell they add a lot to this team. They opened up a lot for Z too. Smith is so much better than Gooden it's ridiculous.

I wouldn't mind Devin staying in the starting lineup. He's got a good all-around game and plays well within the system. Plus I'd much rather see him defend the top SG's in the league than Wally.
 
It may have already been said, but Drew and Larry look weird sans headband. Just weird.
 
what is the rationale behind the Bulls banning headbands? I am not familiar with the history of this rule.
 
WOOOOOOO ... Great game. Hustle and everything . They looked like the gel'd pretty well . I really want to see us play a good team.

They want their players to have sweat in their eyes. By the end of the game none of their players can see well enough to see the scoreboard, to see how badly they lost.
