NBA Playoffs Thread 5/1/11
The trash has been taken out and it's time for the 2nd round.
Tonight's matchups consist of :
01:00 pm ET: Memphis Grizzlies @ OKC Thunder
03:30 pm ET: Boston Celtics @ Miami Heat
The first game is not that interesting but gives everyone time to get in the mood and warm up for what should be a dousey, our upcoming ECF opponents.
It's hard to decide which team to hate more, Boston or Miami so I'll be rooting for Karma in this one. Hopefully she can come through and be a bitch. Lord knows both teams deserve it...
Wishing all of you BaB'ers a happy sunday.
(Special shout-outs go to the people on "BaB Death Row" Keep doing what you do. Keep fighting for free speech and you may get a Nobel Peace Price some day. Boo to censorship!)
Extra special shout-out to General Thibs for deservedly receiving the Coah of the Year award! Yay and congratulations!

Oh, I agree it will be fun.
But to me Celtics@Heat is WAY more relevant. For obvious reasons…

I disagree, but that's only because I think the Heat will roll
Otherwise, you’re right that it’s the more pertinent series to Bulls fans

Can you picture them playing worse or better? They’re pretty consistent because its all effort and rebounding. OKC has to play a lot better. Westbrook has to be able to take care of the ball.

"I love you, mommy!" - Joakim Noah
I am very happy for Zach Randolph because he took a lot of SHIT in his career.
His days in Portland and was unfairly called one of the jailblazers and all of the places he was traded to since that time. Selfish, thuggish, one dimensional, not a good defender, lazy etc, etc. He has been a guaranteed 20/10 player for most of his career. The Chicago Bulls had MANY chances to get him if they wanted him. When we were complaining about needing an inside presence he was available, particularly when he played for the Knicks and the Clippers. The Bulls instead went after Carlos Boozers tissue soft ass and Gar Forman boldly proclaimed at the press conference that Boozer was their “kind of guy”……whatever the fuck that means. I know what it means. When Memphis had a press conference wtih him he talked about being a family man with children and thanking Memphis for taking a chance with him and he promised that they would not regret it…..
Chicago Bulls can be some vanilla assholes whereas Z-Bo is now a part of a winning young core in Memphis and will be a God in Memphis.

I've noticed that Westbrook has zero moves and piss poor handles.
All he does is put his head down and go. It works(sometimes), but he has nothing else. Rose has it all. Speed, handles, explosiveness, quickness, skill, shooting, etc. And he’s best shot blocking PG in the league.

The Chicago Bulls....have a young star, Derrick Rose, who must learn to live with the tearing down of his MVP candidacy as rapidly as he constructed it. - Woj
Westbrook dribbles with his head down,
and thats why he’s not a PG. His speed and quickness make him capable enough as a PG; he’s so good at soaking up the D that he could be effective as just a drive-and-kick guy. But since he’s never looking up he can’t pass when the defense comes over and just takes retarded shots.

If you’re committing unforced turnovers and can’t stop runs then you’re screwed. If anything the Celtics win the championship last year if Rondo can make a mid-range jumper.

Neither the Celtics nor the Heat scare me. Sure, there's room for concern, especially with the free throws Wade and LBJ get, but c'mon.
The Bulls have had their problems with rotating to three-point shooters this year, sure, but Miami isn’t going to field too many three-ballers at a time. They need a big man to grab boards, and they’ll have to have the three douches on the floor, leaving, for much of the game, only ONE three-point shooter on the floor (Jones, Miller, House or Bibby) for the Bulls to worry about. They’ll get theirs every now and then from deep, but largely, their offense plays into the Bulls’ hands.
On the offensive end, who’s going to stop Derrick Rose, and who’s going to keep Noah or KT or Asik off the boards when Rose penetrates and misses, or kicks out to someone who misses?
A series with the Heat will be tight, no doubt about it. There’s too much talent between their big three for that NOT to happen. But the Bulls are bigger, younger, more aggressive and hungrier than this Celtics team the Heat are playing right now. I like the Bulls’ chances a lot, especially with home court advantage.
Now, hopefully, the Bulls aren’t looking past the Hawks like I’m doing …

Sorry but true
Hey Rose. I don't see the appeal!
agreed
if their two big 3s cancel each other out, then hes the next best player and when he plays good, the celtics play good….however when he plays bad, the celtics look as beatable as ever
And Nate was the right kind of backup for him, too.
No, he wasn’t looking to pass, but he was instant offense.

Open jumpers aren't falling at all, and they're only down 11.

thats what the Celtics gotta hope for
dont matter the score just keep it close toward the last 5 minutes and Lebron and Wade will end up screwing up the game b/c they gotta let everyone know how “clutch” they are…which never seems to happen

Do you look at some of these fake Twitter accounts with your name on them? Brian Scalabrine: No, I don’t. I don’t. I know there’s a lot of them. Everyone says I should set the record straight, set my own account up. But I don’t. It’s hard.
What other stuff does he got going on?

It's hard? umm...half the NBA players have them.
They are very gifted athletically but I doubt any are considered Fulbright scholars. You are, however, better off that you don’t Brian. Save that for the offseason.

These game times have sucked.
and Hansbrough was eating... he was eating chocolate chip cookies with a fork.
I agree
I hate when there’s early games and no late games. They don’t even feel like playoff games when they’re so early

I couldn't watch the Heat vs. Celtics, but listened to first quarter
Seemed like fouls were called every minute. How does James Jones get 10 free throws?
Derrick Rose will be suspended by the NBA because he has broken too many ankles.
