I am not much of a basketball fan, but growing up in the 90's living 3 hours away from Chicago, I am and always have been a Bulls fan. But I have come to the realization after watching most of their games this year, that what ever it is that they are playing on a nightly basis is not basketball. Like I said, I am not much of a basketball fan, I follow the Bulls, but I don't follow the NBA. I'm just curious if there are other teams like this in the league. There has to be more players like Joking Noah, right? Guys who watch players like LeBron James or Kobe Bryant drive the lane for an easy score instead of actually playing defense. If you are a fan of a team that is in the NBA but for some reason refuses to play basketball, this topic is for you.

You love to watch them play. No offense, but I started this topic for fans who hate to watch there favorite teams play because certain things like defense and post play are lost on them entirely.

Yea and I just wish Derrick Rose had someone to run the offense with. He's easily the best rookie in the league, and is quickly becoming one of the best point gaurds. But he doesn't have anyone he can trust to make a play.

ha trust me steve, before the beginning of this year i hated watching the bucks. ever since george karl left they have been **** (until hopefully this year.) Defense was not in their vocabulary giving up what seemed to be at least 100 points a game! Ray allen left, we had gary payton for like 20 freaking games and that's about it. Im a little optimistic with this years team but we'll have to wait and see.
Yea the Bucks have a coach that I really like, and if it weren't for the $60 million mistake Ben Wallace, he'd probly still be with the Bulls. I'm still a little chippy that they fired the guy on Christmas Eve. I could only imagine what it would be like with Skiles coaching D-Rose. One former really good point gaurd coaching an up-and-coming really good point gaurd. Would've been awesome. Now we have Vinny The Black who looks like a character straight outta Goodfellas.

Exactly, except with the Bulls, he tried coaching Ben Wallace they way he wanted him to play defense, and Wallace got pissed and pulled out the "Do you know who I am?!" card. Just cause Wallace won so many Defensive Player of the Year awards, he thought he knew everything there was to know about defense. Then he sucked, then he blamed it on his coach who he claimed didn't coach him well enough. Then the Bulls fired Skiles on f*cking Christmas Eve. Then Wallace still sucked, so they traded him to Cleveland for a guy who can play defense(Drew Gooden) but is hurt all the time. I miss MJ, Pippen, and Rodman....

Ben Wallace has been crap ever since he left Detroit. He has been getting older and slower and he can't block shots like he used to. He gets way overpayed for what he is worth.

Exactly, in Chicago, he's known as the $60 Million Mistake. He ruined the Bulls almost single-handedly. They signed him, then traded Tyson Chandler to the Hornets. Then they drafted Tyrus Thomas. Then Tyrus Thomas was good and Ben Wallace sucked. Then Tyrus Thomas sucked and Ben Wallace still sucked. Then they drafted Joakim Noah. Then Tyrus Thomas sucked, Ben Wallace sucked, and Joakim Noah sucked. Then they fired their head coach on Christmas Eve. Then they traded Ben Wallace for Drew Gooden. Then Drew Gooden was good, Tyrus Thomas sucked, and Joakim Noah became Joking Noah because with the way he plays he has got to be joking. Then Drew Gooden got hurt, Tyrus Thomas still sucks, and Joking Noah is about as good at defense as Shaq is at making Free Throws. And all the while Tyson Chandler went to the Hornets and became one of the best big men in the league. Thank you, Ben wallace.

Tyson Chandler is not as good as you think this year, but yah your right Steve the Bulls were dumb to go after Ben Wallace and Tyrus Thomas can only dunk, and Joakim Noah is like the Thunder's Johan Petro he sucks and shouldn't be able to play.

You are right Bobby.. After seeing your post I looked up Chandler's stats. He isn't having that great of a year. But last year he was awesome, and he was pretty good with the Bulls. So being a veteran player and having Chris Paul as his point gaurd, I'm sure he'll turn it around soon.

I know man the Thunder suck, but that doesne't mean anything for the Bulls, they will raly and get the next game, as for the Thunder this is big now they got six wins on the season. God I hate the Thunder

Exactly, the Bulls just lost to a team that has 6 wins. It's not gonna get any better for the Bulls if they don't start making some trades. In fact, it's gonna get worse.

Welll looks like your living the life of a fan with a terrible team. As for me i'm pumped after the MAgic got their first season sweep of the Spurs last night

The MAgic have been on a tear since last season. They have the best road team this year again and are killing it at home also which is huge and that includes a 11 game win streak at home right now. Not to mention the fact they are 15-2 vs the Western conference this year and in december played 12 straight vs Western conferences teams and went a great 11-1 in those 12 games

Umm.. So on the subject of Toronto, they lost to the Bulls tonight. The Bulls... the same team that can't beat the Thunder. And if that's not a big enough fluke for you, the Raptors lost on a last second block by AreYou****ingJoking Noah.

I've been a Lakers fan my enitre life, but God I hated Shaquille O'neal. he sounds like Mr. Ed and Boomhower from King Of The Hill had a baby. of course I hated when we had Kwame brown and gave up Caron Butler for him.

Hey Steven you saw how he shot in the National Championship I'm just saying that he is shooting a lot better from the free throw line than he did last year.
