It still surprises me that the Bulls have a tendency to win the second game of a back-to-back instead of the norm, which is to win the first game. Most teams will win the first, get either complacent or fatigued and lose the second. The Bulls will usually get beaten in the first game, get pissed and win the second. Fatigue never seems to be a factor for this all-hustle team.
The Bulls looked sharp against their division rival Pacers. Nocioni is as consistent as ever. It was good to see Duhon get some minutes. I'm glad he made it through the trade rumors so far since he adds a lot of depth to the bench. Gordon is still injured and missed both weekend games. I'm anxious to see him because the fact that he's sitting out so long has fueled rumors of a trade with the Lakers. We all know Ben Gordon isn't as good as Kobe Bryant, but when you factor in personality, work ethic, off-court behavior and chemistry with teammates, I wouldn't even trade Gordon alone for Bryant. Hopefully we get to see BG play this week.
