  1. So wait, bases loaded 0 outs two different times and we scored a grand total of 1 run?
  2. I will let you troll the Bulls thread as long as you keep dishing this kind of stuff out.
  3. did you guys see that Starlin Castro is on the cover of SI this week? Bad time to be featured considering his current slump.
  4. Not neceesarily...if you believe that the Hawks are a bad matchup for the Bulls but the Heat are an awful matchup for the Hawks or something. Like say the person believes the Hawks have a 40% chance of beating the Bulls but a 5% chance of beating the Heat and a 10% chance of beating whoever comes out of the west. But the bulls have a 60% chance of getting past Atlanta and a 25% chance of getting past Miami and a 20% chance of getting past the WC Champ. I dunno, yeah it is pretty stupid nevermind.
  5. But you gave to give them a bump due to HCA over every team as well. As tough as a Heat-bulls series would be for the Bulls, at least they have HCA, which despite the loss the other night, the Bulls have only lost on 6 times in 46 games.
  6. It's probably because he has a cool Hawaiian name.
  7. They both had the Lakers at #2 and the Celtics at #3. Two teams on the brink of elimination. Who did Broussard have at #5? I missed that part. I'm gonna guess Broussard's rankings. I'm guessing Rose has the Bulls ahead of the Thunder. 1. Heat 2. Lakers 3. Celtics 4. Mavericks 5. Thunder 6. Bulls 7. Grizzlies 8. Hawks Considering how Rose is unlikely to recover to be as explosive as he normally is the rest of the playoffs and considering how Boozer is injured and a mental midget, it makes sense that their odds would drop behind the Mavs and Thunder. Not sure why the Lakers and Celtics would be all the way up there.
  8. That's crazy. Last year our top 9 forwards missed an average of 9 games and top 4 defensemen an average of 6 games. This year, the forwards averaged 7.5 games missed and the D an average of 5. I guess it felt like the Hawks were more injured than they were because of the depth we were missing this year. It felt like every other day one of our top players were going down whether it was Hossa, Toews, Bolland, Sharp, Campbell, etc. When one of those guys misses time and you have to rely on a Fernando Pisani to fill in, you miss that guy a crapload.
  9. No faith in the Thunder? How many teams have ever gone from winning 0 playoff series to making it to/winning the nba title? These are 21-year olds, im sure in their mind, they're playing with house money. TOO BIG, TOO FAST, TOO STRONG, SON. THIS IS SPECIAL!!! RRRRRAAAARRRRGGGGGH!!! Hmm, yeah, I actually didn't even think of the Bulls angle on this. I suppose they could win it all and either blow up my train of thought there, or we could just say that the job they do on defense is the exception to the rule. Not thinking about the Bulls angle just shows how far this thread had strayed from it's intended topic.
  10. Man Red Sox fans are much cooler than Cubs fans: http://deadspin.com/#!5798880/biz-markie-and-other-things-that-happen-in-eight+hour-baseball-games
  11. Q: What does everyone in that .gif have in common? A: In two months, they will all have nba titles Mostly because Durant and Westbrook aren't able to use two basketballs at once.
  12. What sucks is that Rose has shot 37% from the field his entire career, so this is the norm we will always see from him. Bulls fans, we'll just have to accept Rondo as the better shooter and scorer.
  13. What time did that game actually end?
  14. Meanwhile Rose and his gimpy ankle suit up 2 times inbetween Celtics-Heat games, as well as the day after the next Celtics-Heat game. Bizarre.
  15. I just looked this up.....before Rose's 9 3 point attempts tonight, he was leading everyone in the postseason averaging 7.3 three point attempts per game. The next most is Kevin Durant, who averages 6.5. The difference of course is that Rose makes 1.7 of those attempts and Durant 3.0
  16. And [expletive] this quote just blew my mind.
  17. I think the Bulls fans should worry that their team lost homecourt advantage to a team starting Jon Koncak The good news is, if we lose this year we'll be good for awhile. If the Celtics lose this year, the only thing they'll be able to look forward to is discount bus fares and early bird specials. (get it? Because they are old!)
  18. Awwww. Someone's feelings got hurted. So did someone's ankle. Not your best effort. I like your jokes about Rose's 3 point shooting the best. Remember when Rose said he could now hit the 3 and then all the Bulls fans started bragging about it and then when the season started he hit like 28% of them and shot them more frequently than Ray Allen? Haha that was funny.
  19. Photoshop IMO I'm scared to know how Rondo was captured in that position if that's the case.
  20. Ohhhh....that's why they worked so hard towards the end of the season to earn home court in this series.
  21. Granted I've only seen bits and pieces of the Cubs most of the year, but it seems like Castro has been a popup machine lately. I'm aware his season line is still better than last years tho, but he's certainly cooling off a bit.
  22. How much of this is Boston being done and how much is Miami putting it together?
