Dangerously Unedited Sportswriter Rambles About Something
Between getting the timelines, facts, and reported speculation wrong, this blasted-down piece from SlamOnline's resident Bulls fan has all the inaccuracies long-timers like myself have come to expect.

Aldridge Still Doesn't Impress Me As Much As A Fancy Veektor Interior Pass
I generally like bellyaching over John Paxson's decisions (the Nocioni 400 year contract in particular), but those who have made the Aldridge for Thomas/ Khryapa trade out to be a mistake have always bothered me. Checking in on message board threads, ...

Skiles, Noah Shoot Down The Latest Tyrus Thomas Fabrications
Who knew TNT's 'drama' ads would be so influential on the reporters Tyrus Thomas doesn't massage, pat on the back, coddle, take out to the movies, get hookers with, etc., etc., etc. (Surely this is the first time a blogger has made a reference to both ...

I'm A Mindless Idiot
Not really a knock on David Friedman, but suffice to say I was just as disappointed in this as the request to remove embedding on a charming holiday classic . I also expect Pradamaster's head to explode this morning, and that's unfortunate for ...

People Hate Statistics
And I'll probably never figure out why. Tom Ziller shouldn't have to defend PER at Ballhype, but he does anyway . Baseball has been numerically sliced and diced to the point that refuting SABRmetric evidence as nonsense will earn you a significant ...

Sunday Readin': Bill James On The NBA
Link from BBTF . BJ in the Globe : In the NBA, the element of predetermination is simply too high. Simply stated, the best team wins too often. If the best team always wins, then the sequence of events leading to victory is meaningless. Who fights for ...

TYI Wants To Know: Should Bald Men Really Be Fighting With Each Other?
An unnamed newspaper scribe writes an unnamed column with quotes from unnamed sources , sparking an unnamed beat writer from an unnamed competitor to take a potshot at the unnamed newspaper scribe . When an NBA source says, "It seems only [Andres] ...

Things That Cannot Happen In Game 3
1) Ben Wallace (9), Andres Nocioni (10) and, yes, Tyrus Thomas (9) cannot take more shots than Ben Gordon (7). I don't care if he was in foul trouble in the first half. He nailed a tough shot to start the second half, then didn't take another one for ...

 You Know What I'm Really Looking Foward To Next Season?
You Know What I'm Really Looking Foward To Next Season?
LUOL DENG!!!!!! First I heard David Thorpe tell Henry Abbott that he was watching him practice with Britain's team this year and was REALLY impressed with what he saw, and then I read this piece in SI, where Deng says: "For GB this summer I'm ...

Thank You, Henry
I know it looks like a graph of the last 100 years of housing prices , but really, it's what happens when the Almighty True Hoop links to your humble servants here at TYI. I believe the term is known as "boom and bust." But anyway, thanks Henry. ...

If You Want A Good Look Inside The Bulls Locker Room, Go To Argentina
I've always typed there's too much text here. Hey, Veektor can smile! And the only time someone gets a pass for mispronouncing the Captain's name. I'd like to thank the local media for portraying the PaxSkiles built, pre-Noah roster as a group ...

A Shiny, Hair-Free Head May Have To Roll (Okay, It's Skiles)
Highly reactionary on my part, I know. When I see "Skiles suggested his opening lineup Thursday will probably be the same one he uses in the Oct. 31 season opener at New Jersey" in the Daily Herald after a night when a second round pick started at ...

Where Is That Tree Coaches Grow On?
It's not easy to figure out when a relatively good coach is doing a bad job, but I'm having a hard time blaming the Bulls' 0-3 start on cold shooting, Ben Wallace's ankle, and bad calls. Easy and obvious excuses like that have been used by fans after ...

0-4 Hatred: Special "Cat" Edition
(With apologies to The Weblog's Tuesday Institution.) I hate Cuttino Mobley. I hate Scott Skiles. Specifically, I hate how Scott Skiles deals with Tyrus Thomas. He makes one mistake on defense in the third quarter, failing to stay with a man after a ...

Flawed logic
Skiles the logician . "I never want to do that on a night when the boobirds are already out," Skiles said. "I don't like to embarrass the group like that. I thought I'd take a gamble right there to try to find a catalyst. "Then it got so far out of ...

Amnesiac
Skiles on Tyrus: "I understand the fans see one side of it. We see the other. We know what's supposed to be done out there. We ask him to sprint the floor. To my knowledge in his career he hasn't done it one time. Not one time." Uh-Huh. Okay. ...

January 25, 2008
I've been looking over the Bulls' upcoming schedule , and the above date is when I think the Bulls will beat the Bobcats at the United Center to reach .500 for the first time this season, at 21-21. Take a look at the East standings and you see that ...
