The Power of the Hamburger, Bulls Win 98-79

Last night the Bulls played the Wizards. By winning they gained sole possession of first place in the eastern conference, and added to their winning streak making the streak 7 games in a row. They will play the Nets on Thursday to try to extend that streak to 8 games. Through the whole streak Derrick Rose has been the MVP that he has been all year. I hope the Bulls can continue to win like this to finish out the rest of the season.

The Bulls have won most of the games during the streak without Boozer and last night they didn't have Noah either. Those two players have had troubles this season staying healthy, but it will be good to have Noah back on Thursday. I don't know when Boozer will be back, but this injury is not his fault. He got almost killed by Kwame Brown. Boozer did shoot a little today, but I doubt he will be back that soon. I hope Boozer will be back soon, because when the Bulls have Noah, Boozer, Deng and Rose on the court to start the game they win a lot more games than when they don't. I also hope that Boozer and Noah will be on the court throughout the whole playoff run, when it comes that time.
Another big part of the game that probably shouldn't have been a big part of the game was that fans were a little upset with Brian Scalabrine for not attempting a three as time expired so that they could get a hamburger. I don't think this had a huge impact, but I did think it was kind of funny that some fans are fat enough that they would get mad at a player because he didn't try to help them get a free hamburger. Another point, who says that Scal would've hit the shot? I seriously doubt that Brian Scalabrine would have hit a three.
To recap the game, I don't really have much to say. I couldn't watch the game because it wasn't on my TV, but from what I saw on twitter they were sloppy. That is not the kind of play that will help us in the playoffs. My favorite thing that happened last night was that the Bulls won big, they took first place in the east and yet after the game coach Thibodeau was mad at the team. That is why I love having him as our coach, he pushes them hard and never stops asking for more. Some people say he pushes them too hard and they may not like it, but from what I have heard so far he is well liked by the players and he is doing a great job coaching them. In my opinion he deserves to get the Coach of the Year award. Getting to the NBA Finals, or even the conference finals would help him get that even more. That was the best pickup we had this offseason, even over the Boozer pick up.
I hope the Bulls continue to get better as the year finishes out and I hope they go far in the playoffs. Derrick Rose will win the MVP, I don't think any other player can put up an argument, because no other player has played as well as Rose the whole year. There might be some players that are starting to play well recently, but Rose has been the best player the whole season.


I felt the need to share that picture, because when I first saw it I almost peed my pants.

Ocho and T.O together?

Prepare for one of the most entertaining seasons. Now that the Bengals have two of the most interesting and entertaining receivers in the game, they will be very exciting and entertaining. Not only are they entertaining, but they are still elite receivers. T.O is old but he still has game for one more season. Ocho is also an elite receiver. When they are together they can either make a great tandem or they will fight and give Palmer a ton of problems. I already feel bad for Palmer that he has to just play or even be on the same team as both Ocho and T.O but then if they were fighting and both getting mad at Palmer this next season might be hell for him. While everybody else is hating on the team I think that it might work. They both think that they are the best, so when you do that and they are both excited to play with each other maybe T.O will finally mature this year and this team might work. T.O texted Ocho last night saying that he went to the Bengals for one reason. He is going to go all the way. I don't really think that will happen, but I do think that they will make the playoffs. This team is good even without T.O and I think that he will really help this team. The fact that there are so many haters out there will help this team a lot. They feed off the attention and so when they get all this attention they will be a very good pair and will want to prove everybody wrong. I'm getting most of this information because I watched Chad's ustream last night. He was so excited when T.O signed that when he screamed it almost broke my speakers. That is how I know what T.O texted to chad. When both players are this excited about playing together it is probably going to work. Batman and Robin.
