The reason they do it like this is because you wouldn't feel like you deserved to lose a basketball game if it was decided by a free throw contest

And that is why basketball isn't stupid enough to decide their games with a free throw contest.

Btw the bulls have now beaten the heat 3 times without Derrick rose in the lineup. In fact they're now 3-1 vs them when he does not play.

You'll also recall that they beat the heat senseless in the 2010-2011 regular season as well.

This is random. But just saw on Jimmy Butler's ESPN page that he and I were born on the same day. No, I am not black though.

 

He has now ascended to be my second favorite Bulls player.

I think the way we run offense works much better without Derrick (against the Heat)

 

With Derrick = stand around while Derrick dribbles and maybe he'll pass it if necessary

 

Without Derrick = sans any primary scorer, move the ball around and wait for weaknesses in the defense to present themselves

While true they're still 4-2 with him.

I think the Heat just cranked up the defensive intensity in the playoffs in the half court game. The Bulls could hang with the Heat when the Heat aren't going 100% all out on defense. When the playoffs hit, the Heat cranked it up a notch and took away the floor spacing and movement that the Bulls O tries to use otherwise.

When LeBron James covers Derrick Rose the Bulls offense ceases to exist.

Game was at least entertaining. Nate went nuts. I sometimes forget how utterly incredible and unique Dirk is. There's never been a 7 footer like him.

It was a totally fun game to watch but the last 3 minutes or so were just brutal, really frustrating to watch the bulls last couple of possessions.

a legitimate go-to guy would've been nice to have today. Bulls used to have one. That was before his recent sex change.

Yeah, like Marco. What the f*** is his problem, man?

 

 

 

 

Oh, did you mean Rip?
