not really....they didn't shoot all that great in game 1, just hit a few more 3's and hit their ft's at the line.


I still think the Bulls can win the series. they have the better defense and are more balanced. just need to shoot average vs. last night's brick building

this series could be awesome even if every game is played in the 80s. the scary thing that i noticed from this game was how good the heat were with their original starting 5 of miller, haslem, bosh, wade, and bron - you could see why Van Gundy suggested they'd win 70 games. the two non-superstars brought a ton of energy to the floor that got "the big 2 1/2" going.

strange as it sounds, I think haslem is the key to the series. if he can play as well as he did last night it neutralizes the supporting bulls cast that won game 1 for them (most notably taj gibson).

boozer is killing the bulls. he would be getting tarred and feathered in philly right now

Miller hasn't done crap except look like a tard out there. I agree on haslem..he was a difference maker last night.

Sloppy play right now Mavs.

Awful D tonight.

Love that this thread was on page 4...didn't want to bump it, but after the fourth qtr I caught tonight I have 2 observations

1 - the mavs are soft as shit (nothing new). they tried to give OKC the game, but they were too young and dumb to take it. seriously, OKC it might be a good idea to get your best player the ball when you're mounting a comeback. OKC can still win the series though...dirk really wants to choke again.

2 - whoever wins the bulls/heat series is rolling in the finals. that series is so much more physical than the pillow fight that is the WCF. Isn't this always the case? why are the western conf teams always so much less physical than the eastern teams (this doen't mean better...western teams are usually just pau gasol-ish)?

In defense of the NBA, if a hit like that happened in the NHL or NFL (you know the sports where they are supposed to be allowed to hit one another), the mavericks player would have been fined and suspended. Or if it happened in montreal, possibly arrested.

Their defense is too good.
Also very hard to stop their big 3, we are stretched.
Sadly I don't think we can win this series. :(

Bulls can't score in the 4th. painful to watch. tuesday is basically a must win. can't go down 3-1

It's a Philly conspiracy!

They've been trying to take over the board for years. Just look at all those long winded threads discussing their losing teams. :twisted:

Terrific come back. Dirk is clutch.

hopefully the bulls can hold on here.


to me, this has been the best nba playoffs in years. quality of play in this league has definitely improved.

81 where are you at?? I think this might be the Bulls last stand, they need to pull a W out in these last few minutes... Another avatar change might be in order.

Lebron guarding Rose has really affected the Chi offense. He hasn't even tried to shoot the ball in the last few possessions.

The Juggler

boozer should be a dh. only play him on the offensive side.



you GOTTA make that foul shot rose

The Juggler

offensive foul on lebron.....LOVE it.

dougfloyd

Wow OT! I can't believe Lebron got called for an offensive foul at home, hehe. I guess this gives me time to have 1 more beer.
