Blogging with the enemy

Let's get this out of the way: I'm a Bulls fan coming over from our sister-site at Blogabull. I wanted to come over and get your reaction to a few things from last night's game.

First, this is a cathartic experience for me. I'm still sick to my stomach from last night. I never believed we'd come back from Boston with a 2-0 lead and 1-1 is pretty darn good. But that was a winnable game and Ray-Ray just killed us. I'm hoping a reasoned fanpost will calm me down. And that's not possible over at Blogabull, peeps is popping off over there!

Second, gotta let you know that, as much as Ray Allen, Glen Davis and poor rebounding killed us, Bulls fans over at Blogabull are LIVID about Vinny del Negro's coaching. Lindsey Hunter and Linton Johnson all saw tick for a few moments in that game. Seriously? Because Rose was in "foul trouble" (he finished with those 2 fouls by the way)? And his insistence on keeping Brad Miller in the game at the end while sitting the Human Block Party (Ty Thomas) may have allowed for a couple of those key offensive boards you guys got.

Third, what happens to Glen Davis and Kendrick Perkins at the United Center in Chicago? I've always believed that your best players get it done no matter where they play (see: Gordon, Ben) but it's the role players who get that extra bounce at home. Will Davis hit those mid range jumpers on an unfamiliar court? Will Perkins get those offensive boards? I'm honestly asking how these guys show up on the road cause, well, you watch them and I don't.

Finally, I'm worried about coming home, to a certain extent. The Bulls are playing balls-out and may clam up and feel the pressure of expectation in front of their home crowd. However, history suggests their jump shots may fall a little better (John Salmons has been under-performing the past couple games) and maybe we'll get some friendly calls from the refs. At the same time, I could see a hostile crowd waking up the sleeping giant that is Paul Pierce.

OK, I'm done. I feel better now. Wait. No I don't. I hate you Ray Allen!!
