This will be interesting to see, if the Bulls can 2 straight good games.

The wins over Nuggets and Magic are big. But the loss against the Pacers is a little disappointment. Only a little because it was the first game with the new players.

Go Bulls! Get W number 27! :jam2:

Another stupid loss. I don't understand this. Big games vs Nuggets and Magic. Bad games vs Pacers and Nets. :man2:

Ben Gordon: 'Stupid shots, stupid decisions, stupid defense'

•How could Thomas take shots on three straight possessions, including one on a play coming out of a timeout and two shots on one of those possessions?

•How could Derrick Rose not play again down the stretch, sitting for the final 4 minutes, 52 seconds and taking just one fourth-quarter shot beforehand?

•How could the Bulls look so flawless offensively in thumping Orlando and then revert to the selfish play that defined last season?

•And though this isn't a second-guess, who the heck guarded Harris?

Ben Gordon might have offered an answer for all of the above with a stinging and blanket repudiation of the Bulls' play.

"We just did stupid stuff the whole game," an uncharacteristically disgusted Gordon said. "Stupid shots, stupid decisions, stupid defense. We lost this one if you ask me. We self-destructed.

"Even in the first half, we had chances to take control but we kept making foolish mistakes. Whatever we did, it didn't work. It was bad defense, bad offense, bad decision-making."
