Bulls keep shooting airballs on 3's. What has happened to the Bulls? Are they really this bad?

One thing I would add to the offense is looking to get DWILL the ball more on the move towards the hoop. He's so much more lethal going towards the hoop in motion rather than from a stand still. It's not a hard thing to do.

I obviously like Vujacic . . . but I also have some questions about him.

For an 86% career FT shooter . . . to shoot only a career 39% from the field . . . is puzzling.

Something's not right there . . . and he hasn't fixed it.

He shot 45% in 2007-2008. Why not again (?)

Too bad . . . because that would make the Knicks a lot better.

He plays with the same energy, maybe even more than Shved! But he's not as smooth and he rushes his shots. Not to mention not enough arch on his shots so when his mechanics are slightly off his shot has no chance of going in.

When you don't get enough consistent minutes it's hard to get your shot to be consistent so i'm sure that has something to do with it.

KP interview just increased my man crush for this young man. He makes it so easy to root for him.

Melo seems to be doing a lot of getting angry at certain guys lately. I've seen him get mad at Calderon a few times in the last couple of games and saw him get mad at Sasha tonight and he's usually not one to let that show on the court. I don't know if it's a good thing and he's just trying to be more of a vocal leader or if it's a bad thing.

That was awesome.

Trautwig: "Tell me what you liked about the 1st half?

KP: "I can tell you what I didn't like about the 1st half"

This kid is a winner!

It's not that unusual. You see different knicks get upside all the time. With Sasha I think he was upset because the set up the triangle on that side and Sasha kept dribbling the ball up to the top. Not a big deal. I also think he was upset because they didn't switch on the Dunleavy 3.

Anyway, if it gets to bad someone needs to remind him how often he makes dumb plays.

Melo making a dumb play compared to Jose or Sasha making a dumb play are two different things.
