...And Start Getting Real

A better reason for Bulls losses than the Mopey Iowan's nest.

In terms of strategy, what happens when Skiles calls a certain play at a certain point in the game and then the opposing coach simply turns on ESPN or NBAtv and sees that Coach Skiles calls play “Pink 55 left route 66 Bob Dylan Margaret Thatcher” each time Hinrich is being guarded by a taller guy? If we can hear what the coach is saying, what’s the point in coaching at all? Needless to say this is a horrible idea by the NBA. The NBA is trying to make games into the ultimate reality show. The only reality of this idea, however, is that the game will suffer. But what the hell, the Bulls can’t be any worse.
