Amazing comeback by the Bulls. We were getting torched in the first half but now lead by 10.

Noah with 27 and 22 with 2 steals and 2 blocks. First career 20/20.

Detroit as a team have 26 rebounds. :shock: :shock:

Noah with a 30/23 game and 6 assists. Amazing performance by the best C in the East!

A shame there is no Centre voting in the All Star Game this year, he would be a lock.

Lakers only lost by 6 in the end but they were never in it. A horrible second where they conceded 41 killed the game for them.

This has probarbly been talked about before but growing up in the Jordan era has me thinking Jordan is better the James. Better in offence and defence and a smoother shooting stroke then James. Any thoughts.

Tend to agree, however, LBJ still has many years ahead of him and we don't know what he'll do in that time .. And a fair whack of Jordan's legend was his clutch and big money plays, at the biggest of times - That alone puts him ahead for me.

Jordan still ahead for me. LeBron I always saw as the only one with a chance to surpass him, but he's not there yet. LeBron I think is the better defender. Jordan was good at getting in passing lanes, but LeBron is just as good, a better shot blocker and more versatile defender. LeBron clearly the better passer and rebounder, but his shooting is a couple of notches away from Jordan. A lot of those clutch shots that made Jordan famous came when he was a fair bit older, if LeBron can improve his shooting, we might see a more serious debate.

One thing LeBron will never have though is the overall impact Jordan did. LA might have had the showtime Lakers throughout the 80s, but MJ made the NBA the showpiece it is.

Just watched bulls beat the knicks. the only good thing about the game was the result. Watching Nate Robinson play hurt my eyes. Rose cant come back quick enough.

Terrible performance today, the Wizards would have beaten us the way we played.
Wont win to many games shooting 38%, Felton couldnt hit the side of a barn today.
We looked really flat today from the outset, 3rd road game in 4 days. Will be great to get home and freshen up, have had 8 of last 10 games away so hopefully a heap at MSG coming up.

Kinicks still suck. Maybe the 38% was because of good defence or is that to hard to admit. Bulls depleted and lost Hinrich plus back to back. still win :D

That played a factor no doubt, but some of our shot selections were very average.
As I said they looked flat today, could tell after the first 5 minutes that we wouldnt win.

I didnt see it, when I got onto the live stream it was into the 3rd quarter and had heard about it. Im guessing he had some choice words to the ref?

Yeah, just think that some refs are too quick to dish out the techs
