    Chicago Tribune Article on Fred & The Bulls

    Just simply that there was a greater focus on defense, and that it was reasonable for fans to expect to see a SLIGHT improvement in that area from the Hoiberg era...and mainly just to point out how foolish gunners initial comment I responded to was.

    Sorry about responding to him..I take partial responsibility. I'll stop posting 'links with quotes' for him (although there are many more).

    Chicago Tribune Article on Fred & The Bulls

    Certainly more exciting watching a team get up and down the court than milking it out in the halfcourt...those are two extremes though. The objective is to be good at both. Rick Pitino did a study on national championship teams..the 3 commonalities were that they all rebounded well, defended...

    Chicago Tribune Article on Fred & The Bulls

    Prohm absolutely emphasized defense in practice more than Fred did...90 percent of D1 basketball coaches emphasize defense more than Fred did. It's more than coach speak. Just look at his comments right after our season ended...the two things he stressed are how hard they are going to have to...

    I'm sure all of the talk of the added emphasis was based on nothing and fabricated to sell papers...give me a break. I'll look for better examples for you after my work day is over. Go rewatch the Colorado game and listen to some of Francilla's comments if you want another source...if he is...

    Chicago Tribune Article on Fred & The Bulls

    Nobody expected us to be a real hard nosed defensive team... I think the hope was that we'd see a little improvement on that end of the court from the Hoiberg era...and there were times that we did, it just wasn't as consistent as some hoped. There are certainly some fair and valid points for...
