That call against LeBron was beyond awful. Not even a moving screen and worse screens than that get set on every possession of a game. Hibbert just set a blatantly moving screen on this end with no call.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 27, 2013 -> 07:44 PM) lol. what the hell? And what do you mean a couple? Are you serious? You need to go check bball reference or something. Hell, Kobe did it to Mike himself (yes, the old, fat brokedown version) his last year. He had like 45 points and 9 threes in the first half (check youtube). And yet, in significantly fewer games, Jordan had more 50 point games than Kobe and way more 40 point games. Jordan also scored 40 plus 9 straight times in his 86-87 season and scored 40+ 37 times that year (which included 8 50+ games which is more than Kobe ever had in a single season).

Two brutal plays by LeBron in the last minute.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 23, 2013 -> 04:12 PM) In fact, that isn't even LeBron's real strong suit...I don't think that LeBron will go down as someone hitting game winners like MJ or Kobe....LeBron is much better at making the smart basketball play, which usually eqautes to getting the most high-percentage shot available for him or his teammates. I've seen LeBron pass up the final shot PLENTY of times in critical parts of playoff games to get it to a wide-open shooter. LeBron is better at hitting game winning shots than Kobe. Kobe is f***ing atrocious in those situations.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 23, 2013 -> 10:58 AM) A coach did decide he wanted Tyler Hansbrough on the court in a defensive situation instead of Roy Hibbert. Meh. Unless Hibbert was standing under the basket and never guarded Battier or Bosh he wasn't going to be able to do anything on that play. On the prior possession where LeBron got a layup it was a different story though. That last possession was a well designed play by Spoelstra (pains me to say that) and a huge f*** up by George. He got himself way out of possession and had no chance to even slow LeBron down once he caught the ball.

Official Recruiting Thread II
QUOTE (He_Gawn @ May 23, 2013 -> 12:20 PM) He's not of age for them to be published in papers or anything, he's just been suspended from school and his team going on 4 occasions now in 3 years. The latest was this year prior to the end of his HS season where he punched a JV player out cold. He has a crap home life (lives with grandma) and has a "posse" with motives are probably aren't going to benefit him in the long run. Reminds me of Lance Stephenson's issues in HS. Sounds similar to Jereme Richmond actually.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 20, 2013 -> 01:54 PM) Seperate note... the latest Superman preview sure looks good. Except the director appears to be the guy who did 300. One can only hope they are using a different writer. I despise the way that Zack Snyder has shot action scenes in his past movies and I really haven't liked anything he directed other than the Dawn of the Dead remake so my expectations aren't very high for this one even though the trailers and TV spots have me intrigued.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 15, 2013 -> 07:25 PM) I don't know if you can say they've been taken to the wall. The series is 3-1 and two of those games were blowout wins by the Heat. And while the Bulls were tied going into the 4th in the Heat's other win the Bulls never were in a position to have a shot to win that game late.

2013 TV Thread
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 14, 2013 -> 10:24 AM) I thought some of the middle seasons hit a lull, but I enjoyed this past season for the most part. Although everytime it goes back to Ted loving Robin, that gets a bit annoying. Ted just sucks in general. He is the least likeable main character that you are supposed to like in TV history.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 13, 2013 -> 07:48 PM) He was our best player this year. I'm not going to get mad that they could slow him down while he's our only threat. He was not the Bulls best player this year. He was great on the defensive glass and was mediocre at best in all other facets. Also, Miami isn't even throwing extra defenders at Boozer and he is still getting destroyed.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 10, 2013 -> 09:47 PM) With how thuggish the Bulls acted last game and this game, it's hard to argue that they should be getting more calls. I agree with this. The call against Noah when he got the offensive rebound at the end was brutal but the Bulls are committing an unbelievable amount of fouls and a ton of them aren't even basketball plays. I understand they have to do it to compete with the Heat but you aren't going to get the benefit of the doubt from the officials when you play that way.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 8, 2013 -> 10:04 PM) Is it sad that I can tell he is saying "f*** you motherf***er"? Also, what prompted it? What prompted it is the Bulls were frustrated that they got their asses handed to them and then there were a couple calls that went against Taj early in the 4th quarter. They called him for a travel (the right call) and then did not call a goal tend on Birdman when he blocked Taj's shot (the wrong call).

QUOTE (Jake @ May 8, 2013 -> 08:18 PM) That's the same bulls*** argument people use in politics. If both sides do it, it doesn't matter if one does it far more than the other. No. That is just part of watching the NBA. Players b**** and whine when they don't get calls. Boozer has complained to the refs on every shot he has missed in his entire time in Chicago. Hinrich complains every time he gets called for a foul. Nate is constantly jawing with the refs.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 8, 2013 -> 08:15 PM) I love how Wade starts b****ing about a foul called on him in a 40 point blowout I love how the Bulls b**** and whine about calls and get technicals in a 40 point blowout. The Heat complain a lot to the refs but guess what, so do the Bulls.
