" Our program into -- And -- following special."

" It's my nobody."

" have you read a sports columns and newspaper Brian Hanley will be two more shots and bad news. Newspapers so -- they'll take a lot of good. Gordon's -- he might -- Because here comes the inside the."

" It's volley at Stanley did you -- Sports Radio 67 news Gordon's time now for our reporter's notebook which is Friday by Menard save big money at. Menard send mister -- now it's time to talk about the Chicago Bulls. Have they are rather important game tonight at the United Center and say well -- the Sacramento Kings -- how is that important game because they gotta get away and yeah that would be the 827 -- and that just -- show -- time get the W go home while you thought that was the case Saturday night. When the bad team rules are coming to town and they walked out of there with a one to ten point oh -- that was awful so that's the worst loss of the year and that's saying something yeah."

" You're acquittal slide here in here plus six -- seven you plus three in a row you know you weren't doing very well at home until you lost your last couple. And this was a stretch where he had for a five game home stand with the first four against the worst fourteen -- to play in terms of record in the NBA. And so far you drop one of them and don't have that kind margin for error with the Chicago Bulls and that we have on McNeal weighing in Terry from an email I email us your success -- dot com. And saying hey handling why he give such past as Chicago Bulls when you're so free with your. Analysis and criticism rightfully so Chicago Bears and I think I've been very critical of Vinny del Lago and does John Paxson and terms of what these in particular these draft picks that Tyrus Thomas Joakim Noah. Who have yet to off pan out and he still don't know what you have if you had to make that decision today it's they don't have a whole lot. But those two in particular or even -- self promotion who was another first round pick if you paid a million dollars to -- Seventy sixers to move up but to have them select imminent trade deals on the same night that traded -- Tyrus Thomas for Lamarcus Aldridge. But back to these -- the idea that you have to wait. For Drew Gooden and all day to get back in your lineup to beat the Minnesota Timberwolves is laughable. The other effective marriage while things having his worst season since his rookie year this is after signing the big six years 71 million plus contract could be worth up to 81 million dollars. And the true goodness and a good role player good deal guy to have on your team he gives -- is is on one healthy. That is not certainly an MVP type heady player so. Injuries suffered in the NBA and I guess it's a long -- same only those are excuses okay yes I gotta stop -- they got a shot you have enough talent on this team. To beat the likes of the Timberwolves. And DS Sacramento Kings may be a full complement of healthy players can't get LeBron James in Cleveland at Cleveland where they were. Seventeen and all well with the balls went on Friday night at home the Cleveland Cavaliers special team. May do Dwight Howard shows up with a Orlando Magic you don't have a front court the contain them and they open up their outside game I can understand that. But the idea that this team has lost its identity doesn't seem to even want the interest in playing -- defense that's a joke doesn't mean healthy bodies defense is all want to well."

" It's very etched in your story today on page 46 of the sun times you're you're talking to Drew -- here after practice we've kind of lost our focus on what we need to do. We have to find our identity are we going to be a defensive team we've got to find something before it's too late right now we're letting teams score and is too easily. Listen you can control your effort and defense that you know you shot cannot fall sometimes. It's -- might not be -- league to get to the bad but you can control your effort and defense. Defense as you say is all about want to it's all about you know slap in the floor -- in and actually going after people. They they exist too much at a lady's answers to a standing around. As to which watching I understand that they're not going to be a force on the boards which given their their size issues but. You can't just watch people put themselves back and offensive rebound on you all game I mean you just can't do that. And it's really frustrating I've said this before. The problem -- with this team is they're no fun to watch. They are no fun to watch it is not. That -- earlier in the air it was great to see exactly what the rookie -- do Derrick Rose is worth the price admission but everybody knows that now they know that he's the guy the only thing they have to worry about. And you're seeing it more and more. It is just frustrating. It took to try to watch that team play because. You lose to a team like the -- timber possible not."

" As a team is when you're pathetic you look at this second chance points in that game and also the that game against Orlando its 23 to point 3823. To ten yup that's effort okay and not again you know I cannot rebound Dwight Howard maybe. But the fact the merits you can steal the ball and it's his trip to beat this running team that the up tempo scoring ten minutes Vinny del -- style can -- Phoenix and that's been the case. But part of that being that good transition team is getting stops on the other end. And deal this team went from one of the upper. Echelon teams are well under Scott Skiles for a couple years -- they're one of the top two teams in terms of defensive field goal percentage they're not anywhere close to that now. And right now don't give you want to play at the racetrack game with these other teams you're gonna end up. Within 7810 game under record under 500 right now you better find that identity. And that the quickest -- cannot cure right now is defense and getting guys out there who want to play that."

" No question about it all right that's our reporter's notebook it's Molly it's Handley. A big game tonight Brian will be at their game we'll discuss that. Again tomorrow as well got a big -- plenty of tomorrow we're going to talk to Aaron Miles got him -- page showing us and we'll have some -- break down hopefully. A game worth watching -- again. Difficult struggle just to sit through that team right now it's Molly at -- wait -- couldn't solve all wishes it's Chicago Sports Radio SIX SEVENTY The Score."
