Bulls vs. Pistons Game 3 Recap


This will be short. Game 3 was the biggest letdown since the Super Bowl. The Bulls were on pace at the half to hold Detroit to under 60 points for the game. Instead, they blew a 19 point 3rd quarter lead to send themselves straight to Suckville.


Two thoughts. One, when the Bulls had Sefalosha and Tyrus in the game in the 2nd quarter they extended their lead. When the game began to turn in favor of the Pistons we never saw our bench again until the last minute. Why? What was there to lose?


The other thought is how crazy some of these players make me. One minute Kirk is draining threes, the other he is turning the ball over on a fast break (seriously he has done this like 10 times this series). Duhon is a mess. Nocioni is as cold as the Arctic. Billups can't miss from beyond the arc. We dominated the boards in the first half and looked like the same team from games 1 and 2 in the second half.


If I hadn't committed to these posts already I would not be watching come Sunday.
