Why would they trade Noah, he has been arguably been their best player all season?

The Bulls have a good core. They just need to liquidate Salmons/Tyrus/Hinrich/Miller and tank this season, get a lottery pick, and move in 2010 free agency knowing they only need to move Luol Deng in order to get two max contracts.

He later did play Pargo for 6 seconds - so he ended up using 8 players

I'd be happy to have Noah on the raps. I can see why you'd find him annoying though, there are certain players who bug me too.

i was hoping the Raps would have drafted Casspi this year with an acquired late-1st-round pick.
shame they didn't.

I understand how it is to be mad at a head coach, and I'll admit that I haven't watched many Bulls games this year, but to me they just don't have a great team (especially with TT injured). Rose isn't the player people thought he would be in his second year, Deng is...Deng, Brad Miller is old, Salmons is average..etc, etc.
Playing 7 people in a blowout is very strange, but I think people had their expectations way too high given the roster. I don't really understand, do Bulls fans think that if Del Negro is fired they will be better? Or do they just want to lose him so they don't have to deal with him in years ahead?

do they really miss Ben Gordon that much? I can't belive how bad the Bulls are this year with virtually the same team that took the Celtics to game 7 last year (albeit without KG).

Salmons is back to being a scrub. Perfect example of why you have to be skeptical of players that break out at the age of 30.

Omri Casspi - 15 minutes, -25
Jon Brockman - 16 minutes, +26

A +/- differential of 51, when they're on the same team. Now that's crazy.

but i remember the comeback against the clippers... they were winning by 20 and we ended up winning by 15. I guess that was worse.

That Kings team is weird. They play 11 guys and everybody pretty much gets equal playing time. Its like a community league team LOL.
