Gutsy win by the Bulls who won in spite of Rose

In spite of, dude hit a big shot down the stretch....Also, he played pretty good D on Curry.

He was 13-33fg, had 11TOs and 1 ast[disgusting] but of course

Everyone will remember the last couple of plays in the game

That stat line above more than likely gets you 99 losses out of 100

I watched the game he was awful air balling 3s multiple time layups hitting the side of the basket

I don't disagree with you...He was a bit out of control most of the game and took horrid shots but so did the GS....With mercurial players like Rose and Westbrook, you take the good with the bad. Rose can get away with shooting performances like that because teammates compliment him so well. He's a shoot-first PG, who plays beside a pass first center...not to mention a guy like Hnrich can play the PG and guard SG's in a pinch. Also, they make up for any offensive inefficiencies, with their defense. They team is built to withstand Rose when he's off, but when he's on, they are a very dangerous team....

Also, Curry was off with his shot as well, does Rose get credit on the defensive end?

Rose played good D which is really nice to see.

Other than that, he was atrocious. There is never an excuse to chuck the way he was chucking.

We have no shot to land any of those guys in any capacity

Of a Max Worthy PF even with a tore up thumb

Meanwhile can't say the same for his counter part

Love might want to do something besides shooting a lot of 3s

Dolan Too in the same time frame has done more than his share over the years. Second worse record over the last 15 years.

Prokhorov took Dolans blueprints "for success" and used it to build the NETs. Damn shame, NY basketball could have had a great rivalry!!!

Blame: Prokhorov. Billy King seemed to be following orders. The Garnett/Pierce deal was so bad it was clear to any reasonable basketball fan that was insane. More than any other player could do, Donald Sterling raised the teams value!

Thorn left that team loaded with draft picks and assets. He is one of the best basketball execs in my opinion. Billy King has managed to go through most of what was left behind. The Nets have bad contracts and injury prone guys.

Prokhorov got such an easy ride by the press for most of his stint, despite pulling the kind of crap we always (rightly get blasted for)- they seemed bizarrely in awe of him. He's proven to be one of the worst owners in the league- he's stuffed that franchise for years due to trading all their picks- and don't forgot he traded the pick that would have been Lillard, for Gerald Wallace!

King has been worse than Isiah and that's really hard to grasp

I'd say the relationship between Prokhorov & King is the same as Dolan & IT- right down to their firing of Jason Kidd after a power play (see Larry Brown)

From what I understand, Kidd tried to get King fired, and take over his role (like Larry Brown), Prok got mad and chased him out of town- he's taken jabs at Kidd since then.
