PLAYOFF game thread: Bulls-Heat Game 6

by your friendly BullsBlogger on May 4, 2006 6:30 PM CDT in News Comment 66 comments

Tonight could be either a rejuvenation or a funeral for this team.

Hopefully whatever was working at home in this series continues, because anything can happen in a game 7.

Lets go Bulls!

I really don't

why, god, why?

this is disgusting...not the play of the bulls, but the in-and-out of the jumpers
teams lose games cuz of shit like this
wide open, better shot selection but...in and out

I love Grant Park in June!! Been there six times!!!

This is a hangover

from the 4th quarter in game 5.
And the Bulls are having a typical Bulls, under 20 points quarter.

But Duhon with a big spark at the buzzer!

too many dribble-curls

I HATE dribble curls! They seem afraid to shoot close now.

by your friendly BullsBlogger on May 4, 2006 7:40 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs

shaq looks good

he's passing well out of the post, shooting pretty well and intimidating the bulls on defense

take the friggin ball to the hoop

i'm giving myself a stomach ache

not noticing the pink elephant in the corner

Focusing too much on the Bulls offensive woes, maybe if their defense was a little better it wouldn't look as bad.
I can't imagine what Miami's 3pt% is!

That won't get it done.

Hinrich

god, pargo sucks

8-0 run by the heat. i refuse to believe its just a coincidence that our 1-3 spots are filled by hinrich/duhon/pargo

by your friendly BullsBlogger on May 4, 2006 8:03 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs

forget 8-12

time to go down with with our best players

ben, noc, kirk, luol and even sweetney (who at least creates an offensive decoy for shaq)

Ben

absolutely deserved to be taken out when he did. but i dont understand why he needs to stay out.

fucking walker

talking shit to the Bulls bench. I hope he gets beaten to death with Zo's last good kidney.

by your friendly BullsBlogger on May 4, 2006 8:06 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs

you can take the punk outta the city...

and thank god he's gone
walker was a punk at Mt. Carmel, and he's a punk now
i never thought I'd find someone from chicago to hate more than Isaiah, but walker is quickly catching up

not good, the bulls are starting to hang their heads and going into a lull, if they don't pull it together in the last 3:37 in the 3rd, it could be cyonara

Duhon

I hope it's HIS last game in a Bulls uniform. Why would anyone even bother guarding him anymore, he has zero desire (or ability) to shoot

by your friendly BullsBlogger on May 4, 2006 9:00 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs

stat

Heat have 10 offensive boards.

by your friendly BullsBlogger on May 4, 2006 9:02 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs

The Bulls' backs are against the wall, and all year we have praised their ability to not give up in any situation. This is the most important of those situations.
Do the Bulls have the mettle to go on a run and make this a game, or do they fold under the already enormous but still mounting pressure?

only good thing about this series

gordon and hinrich are learning how to drive. or at least that they need to drive and actually finish.

by Sambossanova on May 4, 2006 9:23 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs

this game has every bulls problem in stark relief

rebounding down the stretch
lazy fouls leading to 3pt plays
to's at the worst times
no answer for shaq
not finishing at the rim
etc etc etc

What a shame.

What a buzzkill.

I hate the last game of the season.

This one really sucked. To lose in a blowout at home. With Walker being a prick. Ouch.

Well, looking forward to all the offseason action.

And, seriously, when is the draft lottery?

woah!!!

its pargo time

Its simple

We're too small. Live by the jumper, die by the jumper.

Its not news. We've known this all year. Now let's go get some size and . . . wait 'til next year.

u know its over when its pargo-time

haha he thinks hes some kinda jordan after last years crazy performance

by Sambossanova on May 4, 2006 9:32 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs

Let the platitudes begin...

Let's hope this makes the Bulls (Tyson, I'm talking to you) hungry going into next year.
Draft big, sign big, get big.
Ben, get some handles!
Duhon, Harrington, get lost.

Great blogging season too!
The last month has been the best thing since the MJ years, and it's been cool to have an outlet to share thoughts and joy and pain with you other Bulls fans.
And thanks as well to Matt for running a great blog.

C-ya at the lottery, and go you little ping-pong balls.
