That quote really shocked me when I heard it last night during the post-game press conference.
Didn't anyone clue Jordon in to the fact that Pike was 9th in the NBA in 3-point shooting (42.5%), and Pargo's only real "role" is to shoot the ball? That he averaged over 6 points a game in only 14 minutes? And 8.4/game and 36% 3-pt shooting in 17 minutes in his two seasons in Chicago?
I didn't follow the Wiz closely enough this season to say what kind of coach Jordon is, but from what I've heard from him after the first two games of this series he doesn't seem like the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree IMHO.

What's this supposed to mean??? Anyways EJ is not as good coach and the things he says after games i don't even bother to listen to. It wouldn't hurt my feelings one bit if he got fired after the season is over.

Re: Wizards will lose this series because the Bulls are better at one thing.
7 game series. Bulls have very loyal fans. I think that's the reason as to why they've been so good... just look at the Pacers as an example.
So game 7 @ Bulls. Bulls win.

I think their hoops IQ is low...
When that happens, you rely on individual basketball talent, not basketball teamwork.

You told him.
Hey--I don't think EJ is the problem. It's the way that the team was built. Defense isn't in the DNA. The Wizards are very Dallas Maverick like.

Re: Wizards will lose this series because the Bulls are better at one thing.
FWIW, I still have the Wizards winning this series in 7.

Re: Wizards will lose this series because the Bulls are better at one thing.
I couldn't believe that post-game comment either. I don't see how it could be out of context either.

Re: Wizards will lose this series because the Bulls are better at one thing.
My bad, I didn't look at the date you posted it, I thought you posted it after we had won the second game.

Re: Wizards will lose this series because the Bulls are better at one thing.
The Bulls' 108-point average in the series is seven more than the Wizards allowed their opponents on average in the regular season.
"It is what it is,'' Wizards coach Eddie Jordan has said of his team's defense.
What it is, is not as good as the Bulls' defense, and unless it improves significantly, it won't be good enough to keep the Bulls from advancing.

If Wizards win tomorrow, all of a sudden, they are in the drivers seat. So anybody thinking this series is done, is thinking silly.
I, for one, think the it's a veery close series. It could really go either way. These teams are gonna go at it throughout.

I don't think this series is over yet.
