The Chicago Bulls and the Utah Jazz were in London, England yesterday, playing a pre-season game against each other. Being a Bulls fan, and since the game was on during the afternoon, I decided to watch. One of the reasons that I wanted to watch was so that I could see our two new rookies, Taj Gibson and James Johnson.

And wow, am I ever glad that I did watch. This was one of the best pre-season games that I’ve ever watched. Both Gibson and Johnson had good games, with each player also throwing down a sick dunk. And despite letting the Jazz back into the game in the fourth quarter, my Bulls managed to pull out an incredible win… thanks to a last second shot by Johnson. (And yes, even though the one announcer was doubting that the shot was put up in time, it definitely was. The ball was out of Johnson’s hands and in the air with 0.1 seconds left on the clock.)
