  Dime Magazine (www.dimemag.com) : Daily NBA News, NBA Trades, NBA Rumors, Basketball Videos, Sneakers — Authority: 668
  Seeing as Rasheed Wallace didn’t even bother combing his hair, you kind of got the impression right away that Boston was taking the Pacers lightly — and that was before the C’s fell behind by double-digits in the first quarter.

  In all honesty, we’ll be surprised if Vinny Del Negro still has a job by the time the Dime crew makes it up to Madison Square Garden tonight for Knicks vs. Bulls.

• A quality win: Bulls 101, Hawks 98

  
  By The Horns — Authority: 124
  Yes, you are looking at team unity in action. Not again . That’s what many Bulls fans had to be thinking when Chicago fell behind 29-16 after the first quarter of last night’s home game against the Hawks.

  Give Me The Rock — Authority: 429
  Line of the Night: Too bad Luol Deng and his FG%-saving ass still lost out to Steve Nash (0.90), who had 16 points, 5 rebounds, and 13 assists. Somehow, he managed to avoid taking a free throw, which, with his career average, is not something you want to see from Steve Nash. His 63% from the field, however, was ...

  Vinny Del Negro really wanted to beat the Knicks on Thursday night. Why do I say that? Because he played just 7 Bulls in the 98-89 win over ex-Bulls Eddy Curry, Chris Duhon and their awful team.James Johnson was a DNP-CD. He can play against the Celtics and the Lakers but not the lowly Knicks? [...]
