Duke's Luol Deng is an unselfish player who has a feel for the game and is fundamentally sound at both ends of the floor.
This edition of Bulls won't be full groan
Sunday, October 17, 2004
In the Bulls locker room at the United Center, there is a message board, and on the message board, there are plays drawn, and in the margins, there are instructions, and on Friday, the first entry under "O" was of particular note.
"The object is to score."
Even for a team trying out more new parts than a barber, this would seem an unnecessary reminder, along the lines of "breathe" or "blink." Yet Luol Deng, who as a Duke man would be aware of such things, insisted the message carried more than met the eye.
"I mean, we all know that," Deng said. "It's just coach's strategy. You reading that, it doesn't make as much sense as it does for us.
"What he's trying to say is, basically, just take your shots. Don't be nervous out there. If you're wide open, take the shot. Last game, we had a lot of open looks and we passed them up."
Hence, "The object is to score." Underlined. Followed by "execute plus clear your mind and play."
Or, if I were to rewrite, "Shoot first, think later."
Of course, if I were to rewrite, I'd probably first have to do something about "Through Thick and Thin."
The above is probably the worst advertising slogan in the history of slogans and/or advertising. Still, sad to say, I think I understand the Bulls' new marketing campaign.
This season probably will be an extension of a streak of thin that began with Tim Floyd's veneer of competence. Why use billboards and TV and print ads to remind fans of this?
Perhaps to remind them how much fun it was to be in on the ground floor of thick.

In Loss, Wizards Brawl With the Bulls
By Michael Lee
Washington Post Staff Writer
Tuesday, October 26, 2004; Page D07
CHICAGO, Oct. 25 -- It started with a shove and a collision, escalated to more pushing and shoving and slapping and swiping. Then, it moved from a bar room brawl to something out of WWE, with punches thrown, bodies slammed, technicals assessed and players dismissed. The Washington Wizards were trying to send a message to the Chicago Bulls on Monday night that they were tougher and meaner and somehow a 16-point third-quarter lead in an exhibition game wasn't enough.
Coach Eddie Jordan has complained throughout training camp that he wants his team to get rougher. Point guard Gilbert Arenas went so far as to proclaim that the Wizards should institute a "no-layup rule" this season. But, in the end, the Wizards had to wonder what all of the tough talk meant, after they lost 100-95 in a game they should've won. And, they may lose some players they can't afford to lose when the regular season begins on Nov. 3.
With 3 minutes 22 seconds left in the third quarter the Wizards were up 74-58 against a lifeless Bulls team when Bulls forward Luol Deng made a behind-the-back dribble just inside the three-point line to get around Arenas. Deng had a clear path to the hoop when Larry Hughes came charging hard after Deng and shoved Bulls point guard Kirk Hinrich into Deng, causing Deng to land awkwardly on his backside.
Hinrich took exception to the push and walked toward Hughes. Bulls forward Antonio Davis then sought out Hughes, too, when Wizards center Brendan Haywood came from behind to shove Davis in the back. As Davis motioned toward Haywood, Hughes pushed Davis and shouted words his direction.
Then, Haywood swung at Davis, slapping him in the face. Haywood backpedaled for about 15 feet, losing his footing before Davis ran through an official to body-slam Haywood to the floor. Davis then climbed on top of Haywood and punched downward before players from both teams piled on top of each other. Officials Tony Brown, Bennett Salvatore and Bill Kennedy restored order.
Davis was ejected along with the Wizards' Michael Ruffin, who started in place of Antawn Jamison (bruised right knee). Haywood and Hughes received technical fouls.
Haywood almost certainly will be fined and suspended. A suspension probably would carry into the regular season. The Wizards will already start the season against Memphis without Arenas, who has to serve a one-game suspension for a gun charge.
Before an announced crowd of 12,689, the Bulls outscored the Wizards 42-21 after the melee, dropping the Wizards to 3-4 in the preseason. Hinrich led the Bulls with 32 points and five assists. Jarvis Hayes led the Wizards with 15 points.
