the thing is, it pretty much guaranteed a blowout. the refereeing got so out of hand early that the Bulls trotted out a lineup of marco-teague-nazr-cook-gibson early in the 2nd quarter. The Heat did nothing but bully tactics and cheap shots and got away with it. THe bulls pretty much had no chance to win this game.

 

This.

 

It was a good strategy by heat. Start doing a bunch of cheap fouls and goat the bulls into retaliating, bulls were more than happy to comply, refs feel like they have to gain control of game and call a bunch of tic tac fouls that put bulls in foul trouble. Bulls then come into second half scared to foul, leaves lanes wide open for layups, suddenly we are down by 40.

 

The game should call into question why daquan cook is playing so much. He hasn't hit a 3 pointer in 12 years. He keeps stepping out of bounds...which is just bizarre. He's okay defensively, but such a negative otherwise. Meanwhile even Malcom Thomas and VladRad showed more than him. Radmanovich has like 8 steals and 14 points in 10 seconds.

 

I get that Rip sucks, but no way he is worse than Cook at this point.

Sources said no suspension is expected for Taj Gibson failing to leave court in a timely manner. Fine possible, but not a suspension.

I expected the Bulls to get rolled after Game 1 - you know, awaken the monster that's not taking you seriously and all - but egads, that was bad.

 

The meathead in me thinks "maybe Rose will play and score 48 in game 3 - and maybe Hinrich will be back to give quality minutes on defense - and maybe Deng will miraculously recover from an issue that HASN'T EVEN BEEN DIAGNOSED YET".

 

The rational human in me knows this one will be over in 5, and we'll see Rose around Halloween.

They've succeeded at making me doubt this.

I'm starting to hope for a GS vs Memphis WCF just because I think those are the two teams with the best chance to beat the heat at this point. Miami would have some problems guarding Thompson and Curry. I hope Memphis ultimately comes out of the West though. Gasol and Randolph could possibly be a huge issue for Miami. Conley could hurt them too (with the way he's playing now).

Yeah, as fun as game one was, all you did was kick the sleeping tiger, not to mention the officiating completely changed. The Bulls have no chance in a closely officiated series against Miami without their own stars.

Hilarious. The guy with Snooki as his avatar is criticizing women's looks. Sure the woman in this picture is nasty, but Snooki is about as gross as it gets.

 

Try again. gent. This is as gross as it gets.

People hate snooki because she makes $10 million dollars a year to do nothing. But she's so fire. I'd tear that tan little ass up. And I'd make her sport that poof, too. get off me.

They're back at home 1-1. They've taken home court away. If I had said that a week ago, you all would have thought I was crazy.

 

Last night was all about the officiating and the home court calls. The Bulls absolutely deserved a lot of their foul calls and a lot of the techs (and ejections). But at some point the Bulls were getting calls against them to get the game under control while the Heat were not. One obvious example was Noah "running over" Lebron and getting called, and then Lebron running over Nate the very next trip down the floor without getting called at all. Or Chalmers wrapping his arm around Noah's neck, Anderson purposefully blasting Noah in the back, or Lebron throwing an elbow and managing a double tech despite Noah not doing anything in retaliation.

 

Whatever, that s*** happens. At least guys like Noah and Butler got some rest finally.

Snooki is a beauty queen compared to that she-male in that pic.

Saying "yeah I'd f*** her" is a lot different from saying she's hot.

This is true, and she is a repulsive human being.

 

That being said, there's also a difference between saying you'd "f***" her and you'd "hatef***" her.

I dont know if I could hatef*** someone knowing that i will leave smelling of picklejuice and shame

still talking about this, eh.

and a high probability of some disease.

Pickle juice ain't so bad

Wasn't his injury just called a bad bruise?

 

 

On the Thursday that Luol Deng will reunite with teammates in Chicago, Kirk Hinrich is scheduled for a second MRI on his severely bruised left calf, two sources said.

 

The initial exam showed damage to muscle fibers, one source said, but the injury is failing to progress, so a second test will determine if a tear has developed.

It seems like she is right up in his grill, too...it's not like she was casually flipping him the bird or something.

On some levels, it would have been way funnier for him to just clock her. I can't stand people that berate professional athletes (in person)

Well she didn't kill anyone... (this time)

Anyone have 18,400 lying around? There are 2 courtside seats available for Monday's game.
