I'd like to [expletive] LOL right now at all the media, fans, who watch one game and think a series is over.

The Bulls might win tonight, but people were acting like the Heat had no shot after game 1. Adjustments, matchups, and most importantly fluctuations in performance happen.

Seems like I hear this in NBA analysis a lot, as compared to baseball. I wonder how different the series probabilities are for baseball vs. basketball.

And Lebron reminds everyone he's still the best player in the league.

So I guess LeBron is shedding the 'not clutch' label. Bummer too, I like it.
If there was a little more spittle, Taj Gibson could be compared to KG. But he's still young.

Bummer game after that nice first quarter. Bulls offense is just anemic if Rose isn't able to penetrate. My man Omer holdin' it down on defense still Wade's inadvertent elbow knocked his chin open.

Refs called some touchy-ass fouls. Not gonna freak out like a lot of reactionary ESPN/NBA/ratings ranters, but man, did some of those questionable calls come at the worst times for a Bulls team playing pretty shaky in the second half.

Game 3: Need more movement. Far fewer Rose 18 footers. Holding Miami to 82 and 85 points at UC is nice. Now, Bullsies just gotta put the ball in the net more often, and not necessarily like game 1's unlikely amount of 2nd chance points.

I hate that the Bulls are "blah" when Rose doesn't play exceptionally well.

Nothing distressing in that game unless Derrick's finishing/shooting was because of his ankle. After 3 days off I'd guess it was just a bad night.


Average FT shooting, average scoring from Derrick and the Bulls win by 10. Depth is still too much for MIami to match up with. Still don't understand why LeBron is so ineffectual a lot of the time.

Average rebounding and average scoring by Wade and LeBron and the Heat win game 1 by 10.

Just gonna be a hell of a series.
