CSN Image of the Day


In response to Derrick Rose's reference to the Will Farrell movie, "Semi-Pro", last night, CSN showed us what he'd look like as a member of the Flint Tropics.

Noah's First Trip-Dub




Joakim Noah has
averaged 11.8 ppg, 11.4 rpg, 2.7 apg, 1.4 bpg, on .569 shooting the last month and on Wednesday against the Bucks, he went apeshit.

Noah was the first Bulls center to have a triple double since Artis Gilmore did so in 1977 (Thank you CSN) putting up 13 points, 13 rebounds, 10 assists and a block in less than 30 minutes. Not to mention he went 7/7 from the free-throw line.

Had he not taken the first month of the season off, he might have beaten out the almighty Roy Hibbert for the backup center spot on the All-Star team. Regardless, I'm sure he'll enjoy his four day weekend.

Dunk-O-Meter



Just found out that www.cbssports.com has an NBA Dunk-O-Meter- a list of how many dunks each NBA player has on the season. The intrawebs is crazy!

What amazed me even more is the fact that Mr. Carlos Boozer has a total of 13 dunks on the year, ranking him 81st overall. WTF? Omer Asik has five more dunks than him in half as many minutes.

If we wanted to see a bunch of layups and jumpshots we'd watch the WNBA.

Get your act together Carlos.

That is all.

All-Star Reserves Announced Tonight


The day has finally arrived in which the NBA will reveal this years All-Star reserves. We already know that Derrick will be heading to Orlando as a starter, but will Luol Deng or Carlos Boozer make the journey as well? Boozer, probably not, but Deng sure as hell deserves it. If you haven't been watching the Bulls this year and need an explanation, I'll leave it to 7-time NBA All-Star Scottie Pippen.

TNT will announce the East and West reserves tonight at 6 pm CT, prior to the Celtics/Lakers game. Coaches turned in their votes for for 2 guards, 2 forwards, 1 center and 2 wild cards on Tuesday. Here's how I would have voted:

WEST

G: Steve Nash (Suns)
G: Russell Westbrook (Thunder)
F: Kevin Love (Timberwolves)
F: Dirk Nowitzki (Mavericks)
C: LaMarcus Aldridge (Blazers)
W: Tony Parker (Spurs)
W: Al Jefferson (Jazz)

Close Calls: Kyle Lowry, Pau Gasol.

*I gave Jefferson the last spot over Lowry because I already had 3 point guards.

EAST

G: Deron Williams (Nets)
G: Joe Johnson (Hawks)
F: Paul Pierce (Celtics)
F: Chris Bosh (Heat)
C: Amare Stoudemire (Knicks)
W: Luol Deng (Bulls)
W: Andre Iguodala (76ers)

Close Calls: Danny Granger, Brandon Jennings, Josh Smith, Rajon Rondo

*I'd rather give the honor to a guy like Amare (or is it Amar'e now?) at center than give it to a scrub (in All-Star terms) like Roy Hibbert. And Rondo is overrated. I think he'll get voted in but I won't understand it. The 14-10 Celtics will probably still end up with 4 All-Stars...

Ya know, the Bulls haven't had two All-Stars since 1998...

UPDATE: LUOL MADE IT!!! view the lineups here.

Stacey Impressions

Bulls players do their best Stacey King impressions in this CSN Chicago ad:

"That's a poster! That's a poster right there!"

Today in Bulls History

February 7th, 1988: Jordan wins MVP at NBA All-Star Game held in Chicago. He racked up 40 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 steals and 4 blocks en route to a 138-133 victory for the East All-Stars. Jordan had also won the Slam Dunk contest the day prior.

Unfortunately, I was just under 2 years old at the time and, for unknown reasons, the All-Star Game hasn't been held in Chicago since. Houston will host its third since 1988 next season while LA, Phoenix and Orlando will have hosted 2 each. I'm not sure what the deal is but I'd murder some children to see Derrick Rose play in an All-Star game at the United Center. Luol Deng too, dammit.

This video features some delightful Jordan moments:

And some more Jordan happiness:

CSN Shot of the Night



After Scalabrine entered the game, CSN kept zooming in on this red headed Nets fan and then showed them side by side. Maybe it's Scal's brother? I found it to be quite humorous. (Click image to enlarge)
