Game 5 of Round 2 - NBA discussion thread

[divol]

Game over?

 

[divol]

Rose has something wrong with his knee?

 

[emkee]

The alien is in attendance.

 

[HUNT]

Was over at tip

 

[divol]

Was over at tip

I agree :cheers3:
But I meant officialy over

 

[HUNT]

Lol I know.

 

[hauntEd]

Rose has something wrong with his knee?

Thought the same.
Saw him limping, hope he's ok..

 

[divol]

Blatt did amazing job this season with Mozgov, Thompson, Dela (and Kyrie).
He improved Thompson and Dela by so much...
Can Thompson be 14 mill a season type of player this summer? I think there is a good chance...

 

[emkee]

Never over til that final whistle.

Bulls the Michael Myers of the NBA.

 

[divol]

Thought the same.
Saw him limping, hope he's ok..

Something is wrong. He is playing decoy only. Doesn't shoot, doesn't even try to demand the ball.
Hope he is ok. I'm tired from the injuries this playoff...

 

[HUNT]

Not with the Martian in attendance

 

[emkee]

Spread questionable. JR gonna JR.

 

[divol]

And Bron still with zero turnovers! Amazing! Just amazing performance by him!

 

[emkee]

Moose lurking.

 

[emkee]

Hard to blow a 17-point 4th quarter lead to the Bulls minus a post-presence but the Cavs are doing a great job at making it happen.

 

[emkee]

lol

 

[hauntEd]

Well that sure looked like a travel..

 

[emkee]

Refs love drama and anticipation.

 

[emkee]

Where amazing happens. More like bullshit happens.

Got a fortunate push, I'm sure others weren't so lucky.

 

[Inspekdah]

If Gasol comes back Bulls in 7. If not Cavs in 7. Kyrie played out of his mind in a 5 point win.

 

[emkee]

If Gasol comes back Bulls in 7. If not Cavs in 7. Kyrie played out of his mind in a 5 point win.

League will not allow Bron-Bron to lose a Game 7 on his home floor. That is blasphemy right there.

 

[Noles4life]

ya bulls had every chance to steal that game at the end and 2 really poor decisions outta time out... jimmy shooting a fade away 3 down 2...... and the back door on lebron..... come on thibs... u had steal written all over that

 

[emkee]

Cavs took the foot off the gas is all and nearly paid the price. Doubt they do it again.

Mozgov and Thompson are walls inside, Bulls hovering around 30% FGP in the paint for the series.

Even if Pau comes back, he's too soft to deliver any damage.

 

[emkee]

Dwight all smiles in Game 5 trailing the series 3-1 and getting embarrassed in the process.

 

[divol]

Why foul 50+% free throw shooter?! Teams average around 0.95 - 1.10 points per possession (depends on various things) - 50% free throw shooter shoots just around this average...

 

[divol]

WHAT GAME 7???? Both tonight's series end in Game 6...

 

[divol]

Here is what Pinny thinks about the final 4 minutes in Houston:

[divol]

Rivers is waiving a white flag. Second unit on the floor.

 

[emkee]

[emkee]

No Foster, he must be on deck for tomorrow.

[divol]

I like both road teams. I like Wizards a bit more, especially if Wall is playing (and there is a chance he will play).

 

[nbafan88]

atlanta and grizz for me tonight... hoping hawks drop to -7

 

[emkee]

 

[emkee]

Turning the pill over in transition is inexcusable. Dubs got the slop on.

 

[emkee]

Solid closeout to the 1st. Got that mojo back.
