J4L should write a revisionist's history of the NBA. It'd be brutal and completely inaccurate, but it'd be funny as hell to mock.

The awesomeness of Nate in the billboard and in life is unrivaled.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 7, 2013 -> 11:09 PM) I agree Jane wasn't bad at all, but think they'll go with either a more high profile actor or an "up and coming" one who wants to make his mark in the comic universe/genre. Thomas Jane just wants his kids back.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 8, 2013 -> 07:47 AM) The Sharks wouldn't be an easy matchups by any means, but I am glad the Hawks can't face St. Louis in the conference semis. They scare me for some reason. (That point would be moot if the Wings knock off Anaheim) I'm rooting hard for the Wings. Bring. Them. On.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 7, 2013 -> 03:03 PM) I drive to the quad cities and a little into Iowa all the time, both on 80 and 88. You should get WMVP at least until the quad cities, if not a little further. No chance. Not at night. Their signal drops off precipitously with the sun. I grew up in Loves Park. Strong signal by day, worthless at night. I was on my way back on Saturday night - the signal was horses*** until about Randall Road.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 7, 2013 -> 02:29 PM) From KC Johnson tweets...it looks like we might not even have deng/hinrich for game 3. From the picture of Deng - I'd be shocked if he's available at all in this series.

Mark Buehrle must be feeling snake-bitten...
Why are people concerned with MARK! ? Guy got paid. He continues to get paid. He was a good player for us, he is gone. Deal with it.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 7, 2013 -> 01:53 PM) The "I'm sorry that some may have been offended" non-apology is perfectly appropriate in this case. Yeah. I thought she pulled that statement off rather well. She's a piece of ass with the public behind her, she'll land on her feet.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ May 7, 2013 -> 02:10 PM) Thanks! I saw the Rockford/Rochelle stations. I figured I could patch work it for a while. I think I might have to invest in the app to stream the game. There's no blackouts for radio streaming, right? You might need to invest in the NBA Gametime App. Worst-case scenario, 670 will work the entire way and they'll be talking about the game.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ May 7, 2013 -> 01:50 PM) I am driving to Iowa for a job interview on Wednesday night, any one know where I can pick up the bulls game on the radio between Rockford and Iowa City? I'll be past Rockford by tip-off and WMVP does reach past Rockford. My last ditch hope is to buy NBA Game Time Plus and stream it to my phone while I drive. http://www.nba.com/bulls/news/radio.html It looks like some combination of... 1330 AM (Rockford) 1060 AM (Rochelle) 94.3 FM (Dixon/Sterling/Morrison) Once you get to Iowa, you're f***ed, but that will cover about 70 minutes or so, I'd guess.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 7, 2013 -> 10:28 AM) The Heat screwed up by not putting LeBron on Nate at all during the stretch. Make Belleneli or Butler beat you. They did put LeBron on Nate a couple of times, and he just passed the ball.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 7, 2013 -> 09:13 AM) Woke up and the Bulls still won. I think what amazes me most about Jimmy's performance is during breaks you could see him looking a bit tired. What I'd expect them is him to start missing his FTs and jumpers. Nope. I feel like he was perfect FG% in the fourth, including that huge 3 (which by the way, are much less flat than they used to be). Lebron still took Jimmy easily on about 25% of his drives, but he strangely didn't try Bellinelli that much. I'd expect that to change. Belli did a great job defending Lebron and staying in good position, but Lebron can still beat him a good amount if he tried. (Of course, part of that is our help D being so good last night Lebron knew he'd get mugged if he beat our guards) I'm truly starting to believe that Jimmy Butler is going to wind up being an All-Star.

It was so god damn slow, and the way the ball bounced up off the rim and then in on 3 pointers was soooo lame. Of course, I still played the s*** out of it.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ May 6, 2013 -> 09:50 PM) I did. He took a ridiculously stupid 3 when LeBron had Belinelli on him in the post. HEY! He also threw down an uncontested one-handed dunk in the 2nd quarter and acted like he'd just hit a game 7 winner.
