2016-2017 NBA Season

[rah]

Well not exactly the start Golden State was looking for.
Was it a blip, bad Karma, or lack of chemistry?

After all the talk of them beating last years' record, it just got harder.

We'll see how all the new OLD MEN work out for the Bulls.
Expectations are not high.
Looking at 500 which would probably be good enough to keep the seats full.
Of course, 500 is about the worst thing you can do to your team in the NBA

Sounds like 40-42 wins is a lock for the Bulls then...

Not the NBA, but it's the Globetrotters so why not? Just an amazing shot. Wonder how many tries it took?

When I watched it, it was obvious that the wind plays quite a big factor here so I'm guessing AT LEAST a dozen or so and probably a lot more.

The Thunder won that trade. Still have no clue what they are doing.

Jerry Krause passed away today at 77 - the GM we loved to hate. His legacy will be the six championships and his quote that "organizations win championships, not players".

I never hated him. Great talent evaluator, both baseball and basketball. Went from scout to GM.
He helped build something special with Michael. Twice.

RIP, and thanks for the memories.

Bumped for the silly bulls run in the playoffs. No doubt management will now claim that this year was a rousing success and that the Bulls are on the right track.
