Courtney Lee will be forever crucified due to poor officiating [update- I stand corrected]

I don’t stray from the Bulls too frequently, but this issue forces me to, because no one else seems to want to talk about it. All over the internet people are getting on Courtney Lee. Comparing his miss to Nick Anderson’s choke.  First, let’s look at where he’s shooting this “lay up” from.   His whole... Read more »
