The Bulls need to make a statement tonight at the United Center A slumping Washington team is town.

Here’s my pre game report:

NBA news… The word is out in Boston… the Celtics mean business and I can’t wait for a Boston vs. L.A. REGULAR season game. Portland is a very good team but not in Boston’s class. Who is?

Cavs keep winning. Indiana does not.

The hits keep coming… Boston 19-2. L.A. 16-2. Cavs 16-3.

Dwight Howard with another Dwight Howard game. 21 points and 23 rebounds in an Orlando win over OKC.

The Knicks had a MAJOR meltdown at the end of their loss to Atlanta. Al Harrington passed up a wide open look as NY looked totally confused.

I really like the young core group of the Nets. NJ ripped Minnesota.

Yao with 33 points but they played GST so does that count?

Have the Bobcats made a deal yet?

How bad are the Clippers? Bad enough to lose to the Grizz.

Donyell Marshall is alive and well and knocked down a big three ballas the Sixers are showing some life winning on the road in Detroit. Impressive.

Yes, I did stay up to watch the Raps-Jazz game. I have no life. None. This one was over early. Not liking what I’m seeing out of Chris Bosh’s body language of late. Losing is killing him. I love the guy. Flat out think the world of him as a person and player. Hopefully a win over Portland will take some pain out of a rocky week in Toronto. Raps fans are impatient and I don’t blame them.

Hate to say I saw this coming but I felt Buffalo was going to beat Ball State. Turner Gill has done a terrific job with the Bulls program. Time for a major school to dial him up.

Catch our Bulls Weekly program on ESPN 1000 in Chicago Saturday at Noon to 2:30.

Always a pleasure. cswirsky@bulls.com
