The Chicago Bulls visited the New Jersey Nets tonight, and received a rude welcome, as the home team smacked the visitors around in nasty fashion. Below are some random games observations.

- Marcus Fizer is quicker than he looks, both when facing the defender and driving, or posting up and spinning into the lane.

- Eddy Curry had no real impact on either end of the floor.

- Jay Williams drove a lot into traffic and repeatedly tried to shoot over multiple defenders. It usually didn't work.

- Marcus Fizer's legs are actually Redwood trees that he chopped off and attached.

- Lucious Harris is an automatic jump-shooter. The league still hasn't realized this.

- Jalen Rose settled for forced jumpers with time remaining on the clock and a defender on him. It didn't work.

- When Richard Jefferson gets mad, he will drive 8923389 times in a row and get to the rim by any means necessary.

- Fan support for Brian Scalabrene isn't as loud early on in the game. Tonight, for example, Nets big-men got in quick foul trouble, so Scalabrene made an early appearance. Fans were excited, but they didn't go nuts as they would in the end of a blowout win. The lesson here? I have no idea. Lets just move on.

- Richard Jefferson obviously has some sort of invisible pogo-attachment on his feet, allowing him to bounce extremely high up and down, over and over, seemingly never tiring.

- Fans go absolutely insane for cheap, free t-shirts thrown to them, but mostly sit in silence while their home team spoils them with great basketball.

- Jason Kidd ain't too shabby.

- Kenyon Martin treats the rim as if it just attacked him in the parking lot before the game.

- Anthony Johnson threw a two-handed dunk down on a fast break in the 4th quarter, with a defender nearby.

- Bill Cartwright and Dikembe Mutumbo should have a spoken-word competition.

- Brian Scalabrene glided into the lane like Iceman Gervin and bounced in a sweet finger-roll.
