Sucks.....

Man I am digging these playoffs!

Caves and Bulls all tied up in game three with two minutes left. Refs are letting them play and LeBron is in full whine mode.....

by **cowens/oldschool** Fri May 08, 2015 10:32 pm

some ugly offense bob, but great relentless D, this is why someone like AB or Tony Allen will always have a home.

by **bobc33** Fri May 08, 2015 10:33 pm

Gasol and Noah both not playing late in the game. Gasol pulled a hammy I don't know why Noah is out.

Fockin James never gets a foul called on him!!!! makes me sick!!!

by **cowens/oldschool** Fri May 08, 2015 10:41 pm

HOLY SHIT!!! Rose with a 3 to win it!!!!! gotta LOVE this game!!!

by **bobc33** Fri May 08, 2015 10:41 pm

Another absolutely incredible 4th quarter!!!!!

Rose hits a tough shot with no time on the clock and Bulls go up 2-1.

Amazing basketball.

Right on!!! poor Noah the physical nature of the game has taken its toll, every player needs to do what Howard and Griffin did, take off about 30 games to be ready for playoffs....imagine if Bird did that back in the day?

OMG!!! Austin Rivers, yes that Austin Rivers having a breakout game, coming out party, he is on fire carrying them.

by **cowens/oldschool** Sat May 09, 2015 9:52 am

Jimmy Butler is in the same defensive class as Kawhi and Tony Allen, he has been smothering Lebron, swiping at the ball like crazy.....look at Lebrons FG%, OUCH!!

and speaking of TA, he has already impacted his team and continues to do so that it still pisses me off Danny couldn't figure out a way to keep him.

by **cowens/oldschool** Sat May 09, 2015 7:52 pm

OMG!!!! Thats why they call that man the Truth!!!! unbelievable Pierce game winner again!!!!

by **cowens/oldschool** Sat May 09, 2015 9:00 pm

Memphis up 11 at 7:14 mark of 2nd quarter, they are mauling Warriors inside and Warriors 1-8 from 3.....Go BULLYBALL GO!!!!

Darn I missed the Cavs/Bulls game today sounds like a great one with LeBron winning it at the buzzer. Good basketball being played in all the series!

by **cowens/oldschool** Sun May 10, 2015 10:34 pm

Clippers shredding Rockets defense, Paul putting on pnr clinic with alley opps exposing Howard with dunk after dunk by Jordan.

by **kdp59** Mon May 11, 2015 7:58 am

well, we learned "hack-a shaq" still won't work, if you are foolish enough to try it a whole game.

DeAndre has outplayed Howard all series so far.

I'm back on board with Danny going after him. This series at least, he is killing Houston with his over all defense. max money for a guy who can't hit over 50% of his FT's could be an issue. but man having him in the middle with the rest of this team would make us one of the top teams in the east next year.

add in Lyles, Looney or Decker at #16 and Hunter, Vaughn or Quails at #28.

Stevens could have a lot of fun with that team.

There will be many teams wanting to give DeAndre Jordan a max contract.
He is a dominant player despite his FT shooting.
I doubt he will want to leave Los Angeles but you never know.
He could change locker rooms and sign with the other team at the Staples Center. :-)

no doubt about the chances of Jordan coming to Boston being slim to none.

but to my eyes, he'd be just what the doctor ordered.

and what big man will want to play with Kobe and Rondo anyway?

Kobe has one year left.
Rondo is not going to be signed by the Lakers.
If they draft Mudiay or Russell, there is zero chance of Rondo being a Laker.
Clarkson is a better basketball player than Rondo.

by **worcester** Mon May 11, 2015 2:07 pm

Clarkson better than Rondo? How many All-Star games has he played in? How many triple dubs? How many playoff wins engineered?

I'm talking about right now.
Rondo is a liability on the court and a terrible shooter.
The old Rondo is probably long gone.

by **worcester** Mon May 11, 2015 2:46 pm

We shall see. If Kobe doesn't insist on the Lakers signing Rondo, you're probably right. That'll indicate they know he's toast. If the Lakers do sign Rajon, I bet he'll excel.

by **cowens/oldschool** Mon May 11, 2015 7:19 pm

When was the last time a player either quit or got dismissed by his team in the thick of the playoffs?
