Jake Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 With all the ACL talk, I decided to take a more comprehensive look at how long it takes for NBA players recover from ACL injuries in the new millennium.

Brian Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 6, 2013 -> 10:22 AM) The Bulls arent gonna win this series, but I know the Heat werent happy to find out they were going to be playing the Bulls as opposed to the Nets. There will be a lot of post game ice baths for both sides Nailed it. Even at fouls that weren't that hard in the 4th, Lebron was frustrated. Then after he missed the 3 with 22 secs left, he didn't even try and foul when they were down 6. Jimmy was my player of the game yesterday. Didnt let Lebron go off.

Brian Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 6, 2013 -> 11:29 PM) Amazing game. The difference between west ball and east ball is just mind-blowing. I literally fall asleep at times watching these eastern conference teams play this boring ass late 90's ball. West ball is so much more aesthetically pleasing to the eyes. The NBA is the NBA. Their is no difference in play from the East and West. Not like their is a DH or something. Only difference is the West will play later at night in the midwest.

bmags Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Woke up and the Bulls still won. I think what amazes me most about Jimmy's performance is during breaks you could see him looking a bit tired. What I'd expect them is him to start missing his FTs and jumpers. Nope. I feel like he was perfect FG% in the fourth, including that huge 3 (which by the way, are much less flat than they used to be). Lebron still took Jimmy easily on about 25% of his drives, but he strangely didn't try Bellinelli that much. I'd expect that to change. Belli did a great job defending Lebron and staying in good position, but Lebron can still beat him a good amount if he tried. (Of course, part of that is our help D being so good last night Lebron knew he'd get mugged if he beat our guards) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SG is so weak, if he can stick there in the east you might be right. Jimmy's FG% was only 38%, but 9/10 from FT. That's lower than I thought, but considering his minutes and his effort on D he had to exert, to me it's still incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clyons Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 It's weird to speak of "pride" with respect to something I don't have a personal stake in, but that word keeps coming to mind when I think about this Bulls team. They have a huge heart and huge stones. No matter what happens from here, I feel proud of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is, while LeBron has shifted to Rose in the 4th quarters and shut him down, they had no real answer for Nate. I expect LeBron to be a bit more aggressive in the next game instead of waiting til the 4th quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Bulls can actually get Deng back in the next game, so that they can have an extra body to throw at Lebron, they can make this even tougher on him.

Hinrich on Chalmers, Butler on Wade, Deng on James, Noah on Bosh, That is a great d lineup against the heat. Hinrich is a luxury at that point on chalmers (likely will get butler some rest since you can do hinrich on wade and keep nrob in game vs. Chalmers). Really hope Bosh can stay cold from 3. Heat become much easier to defend when that s*** isn't working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Marco and Deng are on the floor at the same time, then Marco takes Wade and Deng back to James. Edited May 7, 2013 by lasttriptotulsa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea for some reason this season Bosh has got it in his head that he can shoot 3's, especially this postseason. He's hit them at times with a fair amount of success, but I'll give him that shot all night long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I have to give props to Marco for not really being a problem defensively. He's come a long way. Not to say D Wade really pushed him, but you could see his effort was very high all night long.
