The 72 million dollar man sure played like a 20 million dollar man tonight. Luol Deng for the 2nd straight game started off the game hot before killing the Bulls in the 2nd half. This guy is just awful and will be a burden on this team until he's gone. This is the guy that the Bulls refused to trade for Pau Gasol. The Bulls need to get rid of this guy and his awful contract but I doubt anyone will take him. The casual fan will look at his boxscore tonight and think he did well when in fact he's this team's poison. I've said it time in and time again, the signing of Luol Deng over Ben Gordon will ruin this team's future and the more and more Luol chokes in 2nd halves of games, the more I look right. On the topic of terrible 2nd half play, our other clutch player Kirk Hinrich went 0-5 in the 2nd half. As I said earlier today, find a way to get rid of him at all costs!
Derrick Rose was fantastic tonight scoring 30 points on 10-22 shooting while dishing out 8 assists. Rose scored about 22 points in the 2nd half which is about half of the total team points. Joakim Noah is clearly hurt out there and I'd consider putting him on the bench for the two months to get his foot healed because he clearly isn't the same player out there and it's showing by his performance on the court these last few games.
That's about all I can say. We'll lose to the Hawks on Friday and to Miami on a back to back on Saturday at home. Gar better be working the phones up until the trade deadline to find trades because this team is not constructed well at all.
