The reason they do it like this is because you wouldn't feel like you deserved to lose a basketball game if it was decided by a free throw contest

And that is why basketball isn't stupid enough to decide their games with a free throw contest.

UM GAME ONE ECF TWO YEARS AGO

 

That was a great one. JL3>LeBron last year was pretty great too.

 

 

Hey guys, it's really unfair Miami gets picked on with fouls. They never follow through with similar behavior:

Wade has become more dirty the older he has gotten. I dont remember him pulling some of the crap he pulls now when he was younger

i dunno, the shoe one could be a safety concern so that a player doesn't roll their ankle if it's not cleared off in time?

Btw the bulls have now beaten the heat 3 times without Derrick rose in the lineup. In fact they're now 3-1 vs them when he does not play.

You'll also recall that they beat the heat senseless in the 2010-2011 regular season as well.

This is random. But just saw on Jimmy Butler's ESPN page that he and I were born on the same day. No, I am not black though.

 

He has now ascended to be my second favorite Bulls player.

I think the way we run offense works much better without Derrick (against the Heat)

 

With Derrick = stand around while Derrick dribbles and maybe he'll pass it if necessary

 

Without Derrick = sans any primary scorer, move the ball around and wait for weaknesses in the defense to present themselves

While true they're still 4-2 with him.

I think the Heat just cranked up the defensive intensity in the playoffs in the half court game. The Bulls could hang with the Heat when the Heat aren't going 100% all out on defense. When the playoffs hit, the Heat cranked it up a notch and took away the floor spacing and movement that the Bulls O tries to use otherwise.

When LeBron James covers Derrick Rose the Bulls offense ceases to exist.

 

 

Jimmy Butler could not make a free throw SOS for Bulls bad loss.

Bad loss. Jimmy with the choke at the FT line and the defensive scheme on the GW shot by Dirk was stupid. Not face guarding Dirk is just horrible.

Yeah, I felt pretty good with Jimmy going to the line but oh well.

That was terrible.

 

Bulls really went down in flames at the end. Dirk went Beast Mode.

 

Game was at least entertaining. Nate went nuts. I sometimes forget how utterly incredible and unique Dirk is. There's never been a 7 footer like him.

It was a totally fun game to watch but the last 3 minutes or so were just brutal, really frustrating to watch the bulls last couple of possessions.

a legitimate go-to guy would've been nice to have today. Bulls used to have one. That was before his recent sex change.

Yeah, like Marco. What the f*** is his problem, man?

 

 

 

 

Oh, did you mean Rip?

Didn't realized they played this afternoon. Glad I took a nap and missed it.
