QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 26, 2011 -> 09:05 AM) Now is not the time to buy on Ray Allen. He looked like his age is finally catching up to him the last month of the season and in the playoffs. Really? We must have been watching a different season. While not looking young, he still looked more than capable out there. Not sure about the option. Read he was unrestricted FA is all.

Only SGs that interest ms this summer are Ray Allen and Caron Butler. I know, CBA, I know. Would love to see Ray Allen in the corner as Rose drives the lane.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 25, 2011 -> 04:11 PM) Why? The Bulls are going to be contenders every year with Rose only getting better. Yes the Heat may beat us every year but we got Rose. If the Bulls had a SG that could put in 12 pts a game, this series would be over tomorrow in favor of the Bulls.

How was that an offensive foul on Deng?

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ May 24, 2011 -> 09:31 PM) These 12 minutes will determine the NBA champion. Heat win, they win series and easily beat Mavs. Bulls win, they go home 2-2 and have the advantage and beat Mavs. I wouldn't be so fast to say Heat will beat Mavs.

Great write up on Savage by Simmons. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story...=simmons/110524

So for those who didn't watch, What was the Event?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 23, 2011 -> 10:02 AM) The Killing has turned out to be a mediocre show. It had a lot of promise but didn't achieve its potential. I'm so bored by it now. I FWD thru a lot of it. Last nights ending was pretty good but otherwise, ugh.

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ May 23, 2011 -> 10:29 AM) Yeah and the weird thing is that it's always been that way. Why, I just don't get it. Also probably the hardest to officiate.

QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ May 23, 2011 -> 01:21 AM) ouch Rose has a combined two points in the fourth quarters of Games 2 and 3. "I guess I have to be more aggressive," Rose said. The Heat are defending the ball screens for Rose really well. Probably can stop it and bringing the extra defender to the ball. Read that Tim Donaghy predicted before the series that the refs wouldn't let Noah become involved too much.

Great time for our power to go off. Not even storming. WTF ComEd

We are playing so soft around the hoop.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 22, 2011 -> 09:11 PM) Nice flop Bibby. I don't get how that was a foul on Noah And Taj and Bogans need to keep their mouths shut.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 22, 2011 -> 08:26 PM) Man, that was simply not a foul there. The only thing I don't like about the refs is when a Bulls guy gets a step on offense, the Heat create a little contact like a body or hand check and not called and that is fine. But when we do it to the Heat, whistle. Be consistent.

QUOTE (G&T @ May 22, 2011 -> 08:16 PM) Bulls with 30 shot attempts to the Heat's 20. All about the free throws. Bulls soft around the rim.

Sounds like a lot of red in the arena. With all the white shirts they hand out, hope the arena looks like a bloody tampon.

We need Real to come and tell us the Bulls are gonna get smoked. I would feel more confident.

QUOTE (danman31 @ May 22, 2011 -> 06:51 PM) Northern Illinois got Niles North star Abdel Nader to commit. I saw Nader play a few times and even talked to him once. He's a tall and extremely athletic player that looked like Lebron in the NBA against these high schoolers. He was bigger, stronger, faster and could jump higher. He's not going to dominate as a freshman, but he took Niles North to a sectional final. I think that says enough about how big of a coup this guy is for NIU. Eh. I saw him a couple of times and wasn't all that impressed. If he looked like Lebron against high school kids, he wouldn't be going to NIU. He has a bad attitude at times and sometime plays to get his. Very athletic and a nice get for NIU but don't expect miracles.

Justin Timberlake killed SNL again. "What's that Name?" was my favorite. He should join the cast for just one season. I wanna hate him so bad but he is good.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 22, 2011 -> 02:41 PM) But did you hear his rap? He goes hard on offense. Yeah, when there is nobody around him.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 22, 2011 -> 12:05 AM) Hopinks middleweight champ at 46. Great fight. We don't like talking about things that are fixed in this thread. Duh

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ May 22, 2011 -> 12:23 PM) Bulls need to score points, they definitely have a chance to win but they have to play a great game. Korver/Deng need to make open shots, Thib needs to make the right calls with line ups. Big game, hopefully they come out strong. With the way the bulls have D'd up, 90-95 points should be enough. I keep wanting Boozer to go hard to the rim but he seems like he is afraid of contact.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 20, 2011 -> 07:59 PM) Fantasy team. Ditto

Mike F'n Stanton

Buckner really bringing the energy as the color guy tonight.
