After an 0-4 start against some bad/mid-level teams, the Bulls beat the best in the East last night in the Detroit Pistons. I wish they would just pretend every opponent is Detroit. They always seem to step it up a level against the elite teams. Tyrus Thomas lead in scoring, but I still feel nervous whenever he touches the ball. He either pads his highlight reel or does something completely idiotic. Fortunately it was more of the former last night. Here's my favorite highlight from last night:
The Bulls get a defensive rebound, but Ben Wallace has the ball stripped from him by Hamilton. Rip goes for a layup, but Tyrus Thomas comes out of nowhere, blocks the shot while jumping over an airborne Hamilton. I know that doesn't sound humanly possible, but check out the replays... it really happened! Hinrich was amazing with 14 assists. Gordon kicked butt in the 3rd quarter. Now they need to remember this feeling and keep it up for the next game.
A few shout outs to Detroit: Thanks Hayes... everytime you got the ball, the Bulls got it back from you. Thanks Rip, for being a whiney bitch. While you were complaining to the refs, the Bulls were scoring.
