  1. Look, there's contact on damn near every drive to the basket to the NBA. It's the refs discretion that decides whether it's enough to warrant a foul being called. Being Bulls fans, you're looking for it on every time there's contact, then complaining if there's a whistle the other way if the guy doesn't fall to the ground(and even then most of the time he's "flopping") Should Perkins have had more than 0 fouls(going off of whoever siad that, I wasn't sure how many he had)? Most likely. Should Ray Allen have had less than 6 fouls? Most likely. Expecting a flagrant on Rondo is absurd, and if the Bulls announcers were losing a lung over it, then they're just continuing their storied history of being horrible homers. Rondo took a desperation swat at a guy that was in front of him. This wasn't a "clear path" foul, it wasn't Rondo giving him a bear hug, it wasn't Rondo giving him a blatant push. It was a desperation swat that hit him in the face. The Bulls have shot more free throws than the Celtics in every game but game 1.
  2. The Bulls have won 2 nailbiters. The Celtics have won 2 nailbiters. The Celtics have one utter embarrassment of the Bulls. Celtics = Bulls?
  3. As long as we're going to hammer on the refs for every single call they made, right or wrong: Were any of Ray Allen's 6 fouls legit? Did Tony Allen even touch Gordon on the 2 pointer they gave him free throws on? Have the Bulls stopped fouling Paul Pierce on every drive yet?
  4. What'd they grab their nuts to taunt the Bulls after the win or something?
  5. Paul Pierce is not "basically a jump shooter"
  6. So what you're saying is Paul Sullivan has no damn clue what he's talking about.
  7. David Patton has negative trade value.
  8. I would've put our 5, 6, and 7 hitters there before Reed. There are no words for this one.
  9. Who cares, neither of them are Jeff Francouer
  10. Have the results of the MRI been announced? Hamstring strain, day-to-day, likely to play game 5. Might not even need to be carried onto the floor by his teammates or get up from a wheelchair. Gordon wouldn't have been able to play with sore feet. Or multiple stab wounds.
  11. I wish Ryan Searle would strike guys out again.
  12. Yes. Just because Davis is a fat load doesn't mean he isn't athletic.
  13. I think the 90s Bulls would have swept these Celtics, even with Garnett. With Garnett? I think that's pretty optimistic. They would've won, but not swept. Do you remember how teams like the Knicks and Pacers (and Jazz) gave us a hell of a time in the playoffs? The Celtics of last year > those Jazz teams, IMO. The Celtics of this year with KG are a better team than last year too. A year of development from Perkins, Davis, and Rondo is a big deal. I think this year's team is better than all the Bulls losers except for maybe Phoenix. I was young when the Bulls beat the Lakers but I seem to remember it being a case of a pretty old team by that point right? And what are Allen, Garnett and Pierce? Fresh out of school? By the way - Jordan, Pippen, Grant, Armstrong all < 30 in '92, Paxson was 31, Cartwright was the "old man". Allen's the only one of the 3 in an obvious decline, and I think he's shown in this series that he's far from done. Even though it's only 15 years, the difference in big men is pretty drastic. Garnett/Perkins/Davis would abuse Grant/Cartwright/stiff of the month. Rodman's probably a different story.

  15. I think the 90s Bulls would have swept these Celtics, even with Garnett. That's nuts.
  16. Is that a serious question? The Celtics are without their best player and their best bench guy. The 90s Bulls would destroy them.
  17. The 2nd group, even if you can't get Phillips.
  18. The problem is Sulley, Rondo has stepped up and played better without Garnett. I'm more shocked at his development than Davis's.
  19. I'd rather have Neal Cotts than Mark Mulder or Paul Byrd.
  20. I understand the Perkins hate, what did Big Baby ever do besides be a hell of a lot better than I ever expected?
  21. Daywalkers. Have they put up any pics of Gordon holding his junk after he hit the three? Sorry if it was posted earlier. I didn't read the thread today. That was probably my favorite moment of the playoffs so far. There's gotta be a pic of that somewhere. Sounds pretty distasteful and classless. Maybe that's only if Paul Pierce did it.
  22. http://d.yimg.com/a/p/ap/20090426/capt.169beb0037884a2b971ac65f33fd940f.aptopix_celtics_bulls_basketball_cxa222.jpg Let me guess, this wasn't a charge. http://www.nuggetshoops.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/celtics-2008nba-250x300.gif
  23. Eh, I could still see this in 6.
