Chicago Bulls Playoffs Thread

[Mike Aller]

Haha, quit being so sore. LeBron dominated the game. The announcers get excited for any big play by any player, especially big name players. That was a beautiful shot from damn near half court.

 

Anyway, it was a great game by Noah, but pretty much no body else seemed to show up. The Bulls played well in the first 3 games, and extremely well in game 3. This is just what will happen if they have an off night versus a team like the Cavs.

Haha, this is cute. A team like the Cavs. Gosh us Bulls fans have never seen a team as good as this Cavs team. It's almost as good as the 7th or 8th best Bulls team of all time, almost. And the thing that makes it even funnier to me is the media and Cavs fans acting like this is some juggernaut. Let them win a title first.

Wow. I guess this past decade of not being spoiled with multiple basketball championships has really taken a toll on your mood. Jordan isn't coming off of the bench, and this Bulls team isn't nearly as good as the Cavs are. And, you know that. Everyone does.

I'm aware he isn't. I'm also aware that LeBron might not be coming off of yours here in a few months. And there is a really good chance you can look back fondly on that one NBA finals he got you to.

Heh. That has nothing to do with this season. You are acting like a whiney Yankees fan.

 

I know nothing is guaranteed. But, I'm enjoying it while it is happening. It just so happens that I am currently enjoying it at the expense of your favorite team. You got to do that for years (including to Cavaliers fans). Get over it.

Aw, you started to think the Bulls had a shot to win the series.

More than anything I am just tired of the slob job the guy gets from everyone. He hasn't done anything to warranr an announcer wet himself and ask you like that Chicago? Like we have never had a player of that caliber before. Yeah we have and he made free throws and didn't have to prance around after making a jump shot.

No I really didn't. I pretty much wrote the Bulls off after they drove Michael Jordan away from playing by telling Phil he wasn't wanted and trading away Scottie Pippen. They were so damn excited to get on with rebuilding and proving that "organizations win championships" that I pretty much just became apathetic to them.

oh come on. this isn't near the gut-wrenching agony that cavs fans were in for years. we expect to lose, the bulls have won a game, that's a positive. just happy to be here.

It wasn't an insult to the city of Chicago and the history of Chicago basketball, lol. It was a great shot. Hell, they were pretty tame in comparison to just about any TNT announcer.

 

And, he has done plenty.

 

 

who cares? you atill aren't winning a title, let alone multiple.

With insider information like that, you should move to Vegas.

No he hasn't done plenty. When it's all said and done the greats win titles. Until LeBron wins a title he hasn't really done crap. Especially since we've been told how great he is since he was 17.

maybe you should. after all, you were the guy that predicted a cavs championship last year. "lebron takes his first step towards his destiny" or something like that. what a joke.

Exactly. I'm assuming that you're a Cubs fan. So, being a fan of a team that doesn't win championships, you get excited at the idea of the playoffs and just the possibility. It's almost impossible to not get worked up. Look at all of those annoying Saints fans. Sure, it's annoying, but it is pretty expected. Also, I don't think I've said a single thing in this thread where I was convinced the Cavs were going to win the championship or acted that way in the least. You're the one doing things like that.

i never let myself get excited over the cubs, ever.

That must suck. Why be a fan of a team if not for the extreme highs and lows?

If there was as much media exposure during Jordan's first six years as there is now, the same thing would have happened to him. Everyone would have been gushing over Jordan even though he hadn't done anything either. You're just ticked that LeBron dropped a 37-12-11 on you.

 

Should no announcer gush over Kevin Durant because all he's done is win a scoring title in his career? When a player wins a title, is that when it's okay to gush all over him?

And if LBJ had played in the L in the late 80-90s like Jordan, he would not had gotten a Triple Double as easily. He might still, but his body would have been beaten up worse then Brett Favre's after last season's NFC Champ game. So this what if game is complete crap.

 

With that said, the Cavs are the better team, LBJ is a legitimate talent and the Cavs COULD win the championship..I know I am not pissed about losing to Cleveland. In fact I was more pissed about losing to a Celtics team that could have been beaten.

What part about me not even cheering for the Bulls is that hard to figure out. They ran off the G.O.A.T. and with that I pretty much soured on them. For pete's sake in Chicago we don't get titles very often and they just decided to stop acruing them. If anything I am a Jazz follower now. I just don't think LeBron is that great. I am sorry if I like my stars to be able to shoot a little bit.

[SouthSideRyan]

The difference between the UC crowd and the one OKC had yesterday is night and day.

 

I was there. Could hear a pin drop, nobody cared at all. It was embarrassing.

[Andy]

Despite my smart-ass comments I'm much less heated towards Cleveland than I was towards Boston, or Miami, or Detroit when we lost to those teams in the playoffs. Maybe it's because it's Cleveland and the poor bastards never get to win anything.

 

I'm still not sure the Cavs will win - we won the only game in which we shot even tolerably from 3, and Orlando shoots a hell of a lot better than tolerably - but I can't say I'll be rooting vehemently against them.

It's because we had a fighter's chance in the series' against those teams. We never had a shot in this series. I wasn't even really upset that we were mauled today.

 

The only reason why I don't want the Cavs to win the title is because I want LeBron to be so pissed off at the organization that he decides to bolt. Other than that, I wouldn't have a problem rooting for them at all.
