Such an enjoyable "f*** you" game. Love Noah. Love him talking smack at the end. Not going to beat Miami in a series but they'll make them earn it.

 

Which is why these regular season wins mean nothing to me. I'm sick of making Miami work. Gotta beat these guys when it counts at some point. #FINDAWAYTOGETMELOSOMEf***INGHOW

If you are getting to caught up on whether they beat them playoffs or not and not enjoyed an outstanding and emotional performance like this, it really shows you are not a fan of basketball or the Bulls

And in May when they bow out in 5 games again this little cute win today won't mean anything. Berstein said something the other day that made sense. Chicago probably has the dumbest fanbase in the NBA that shouldn't be dumb. We know what a champion looks like. We saw it 6 times. Forget about the Heat. Look at OKC. Look at what the Rockets have put together in like 28 seconds. That's what a champion looks like. This try-hard, adorable, cute thing the Bulls got goin' on is fine in the regular season. It was just as cute last year. But I'm about titles. I don't care about being cute and adorable. And it's sad that being cute and adorable is enough for a lot of Bulls fans.

I wouldn't call it cute and adorable. It was all about passion, effort, and guts today. They made all the smalls plays, locked down on defense when needed, and all around it would an amazing performance. Any Bulls fan or even casual fans would have enjoyed the game today.

 

And here you are pooping the parade yet again, just like any other time, and not appreciating the effort put forth by these overachievers. So let me ask, do you really enjoy watching the Bulls win a champion at a game that you don't really seem to appreciate and enjoy?

The Bulls can beat the Heat in the regular season. I get it! They've proven that and then some for three years now. They snapped the 27-game winning streak. They've won without Rose, Noah and Deng one time I think. Great. Is that enough for you? I get sick of seeing s*** like "f*** yeah, f*** off heat, we can't win a series, but f*** yeah we won today." It makes me want to cut myself.

Wasn't only about a week ago you were praising the Heat for hitting the switch and starting to turn it on? Now they lost 3 in a row, and the losses don't matter. Or maybe they do and that is the real reason you want to cut yourself.

That was an amazing game.

 

Jo has done so much and put in so much work to get to this ridiculous level.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Mar 9, 2014 -> 02:32 PM)
Great. These games don't mean anything. It doesn't mean anything until the playoffs start.

 

Stop posting about the Bulls until the playoffs start. Stop watching. It doesn't matter. Stop wasting your time with the regular season. No more posts. It's a waste of your time.

 

 

See, problem solved.

 

And here come the homer reinforcements.

For the Heat? They don't mean anything other than whether game 1 of the conference finals/finals is home or away. They can go into any building and win. They've proven that and then some.

For games that mean absolutely nothing, you sure do pay a lot of attention, and always point out how every team is better than the Bulls in these meaningless games. Everyone here knows the Bulls are short on talent, but they still win games like this. One difference between LeBron and MJ, MJ wouldn't let that happen. These players and teams are so great when the win, and when they are bad and lose, you just say it doesn't mean anything.

I just said the other day the Bulls could take the Pacers. They can beat any team in the east outside of one when it matters. And I, for one, am getting tired of that fact and don't care about these nothing regular season wins. Then I get accused of not being a basketball fan. When the Heat were hoisting their trophy last year was anybody thinking about the 27-game winning streak being snapped?

I will LMAO if the Heat lose in 7 in the finals and miss home court by one meaningless win. I think LeBron is the best in the game right now,but it is days like today where it is quite obvious he is no Jordan. Way too passive. Michael played every game like he had to win to save his life. For the people paying big money to watch him play, I am sure it was quite appreciated. I am sure there is someone out there that shelled out $500 or more to take their kid to see LeBron today, and they get an indifferent performance.

Get off the beer cans and find yourself a therapist. If you after watching a game of basketball in which your team won can turn into a moment you want to cut yourself, something's wrong with your outlook in life.

The regular season doesn't mean anything, and your the only member on this board with over 500+ posts in the NBA 2013-2014 Season Thread.

 

You're right, I'm the homer.

 

Enjoy your Sunday.

Rather be a homer than a front runner.

MJ vs LeBron now? Have fun arguing with yourself.

All I'm saying is the standards in Chicago should be higher. Let the Toronto Raptors act like beating the Heat in the regular season means something.

You are about titles. How many does OKC have? Hasn't it been longer than the Bulls for Houston? That is what champions look like?

You're in denial if you think Kevin Durant isn't going to win a title in the next 2-3 years. And Houston has put together a legitimate contender basically overnight.

Fine. How exactly could the Bulls possibly have put together a championship roster this year with their PG getting hurt? With where they are right now, they clearly could have had a championship roster if that injury hadn't happened.

 

If they'd done any of the deals people wanted, dumping Noah for Gasol or for Kevin Love or Aldridge or whatever else people could envision, it wouldn't have turned this Bulls team into a title contender without Rose. The only thing they could have done was trade Rose several years ago before the injuries. Hell...if they were to acquire Anthony without giving up anything of value this offseason, and then lost Rose for the year again, they're still not a title contender.

 

Given that, I'm equally frustrated with the inability of the key player to stay healthy, but I still found today to be fun.

Lol. Me being born into an ohio state family from Columbus makes me a front runner? Classic.

WTF are you talking about? 90% of the fan base is pissed as this organization for being so passive over the last 4-5 years.
