I bet if you add up
the age and weight of every player on the Heat it equals 1,000,000,000,000,000.

nets look good....
when we beat the heat we might be better than playing nets

Seems like we've been waiting forever.
I'm thoroughly jealous of everyone who gets to watch live, but at least from this point on every game is televised for the rest of us!

Let's go Bulls!

Nice start
So far so good.  Hope Miami's TO adjustments fail miserably.

Lu and Ben look great!

our defense looks real good....
but damn our offense stalled out of that last time out...dont do this to me guys

by milesgmsu on Apr 21, 2007 2:28 PM CDT   0 recs

Kirk has got to stay on the floor
Stupid fouls.

I think it's worse to play Miami, because I not only want the Bulls to win, but want Miami to lose big.  This last few minutes sucked.

by wjb1492 on Apr 21, 2007 2:31 PM CDT   0 recs

This is ugly
gotta get Shaq in trouble like last year

Question to those that have been to UC
Do they have microphones on the rims?  All the misses sound like crap

by Boney on Apr 21, 2007 2:36 PM CDT   0 recs

yea they do
but the swishes are beautiful sounding....i think they turn off the mics sometimes...that or you get used to it....it really helps when catching the game on the radio

by milesgmsu on Apr 21, 2007 2:41 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Ben is doing all he can
speaking of both....love their games today. Deng is too, other gotta step it up.

the players call him BG ont he court
which means im officially retiring the term "jizzle" and switching back to BG

by milesgmsu on Apr 21, 2007 2:41 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

not our best quarter
but considering how well the heat are shooting, it could be far far worse....i like that we're driving and getting to the lane...the outside jumpers will fall in time....and fatoines shots wont fall in time

by milesgmsu on Apr 21, 2007 2:40 PM CDT   0 recs

9 assists on 9 baskets
and only 3 TOs and 6 fouls - overall I'm happy with that, except of course for the fact that 2 of the TOs and 2 of the fouls are on Kirk.  Hopefully he can let the bad start go and get back in the game here.

by wjb1492 on Apr 21, 2007 2:44 PM CDT   0 recs

i dont know if kirk ran over Eddie F. Rush's dog
or something, but those have been 2 really shitty calls and 1 decent call....2 fouls would be acceptable but to give him 3...ugh

i do like the immediate TO by skiles to tell duhon to stay down...i can imagine the conversation

"du...gotta stay down...DEFENSE...wade likes to...defense....up fake the...defense...defender...defend the hoop

defense on three..."

by milesgmsu on Apr 21, 2007 2:50 PM CDT   0 recs

Got see more
Sefo and Tyrus! Im telling you right now we are more athletic then them Skiles.

thana  7 foot 300 pound man, star with a disloacted arm and two players suspended from the team for being too fat.

I really hate the Heat..
I've never seen so many grown ass men as cheerleaders on the sideline waving towels around and shyt

They have 2 dance teams in Miami and one is on the bench.

I like this line up.
Ben
Sefo
Deng
Noch Tyrus
Fro

by joejoeEnglish94bulls4ever on Apr 21, 2007 3:10 PM CDT   0 recs

I do also.
Sefo is playing really well right now. If we can start hitting the 3's we can start pulling away.

by SRQman on Apr 21, 2007 3:11 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I used to like Posey..
Until I actually watched him play a few games...  I always thought he was underrated coming out of college.  I didn't know was such a "thug" on the court... or in hockey, they'd call him a "goon"

Score is 49-46

Nice end to a boring 2nd quarter
nice way to run out the end of the 2nd quarter...

Thabo is the spark this team needed

by Boney on Apr 21, 2007 3:17 PM CDT   0 recs

YES! YES! YES!
Remmeber last year when wade stole the ball off of sweets and hit a lay up?  paybacks a bitch! BITCHES!

side note: i thought in real time that was clearly a goaltend, but all in all dropping the homer view the refs are doing a real nice job

If hinrich stops getting pacman jonsed by the refs we should be well off

by milesgmsu on Apr 21, 2007 3:17 PM CDT   0 recs

Nah, it was a goaltend.
It hit the backboard, then Deng touched it.

Loving Thabo's D
He's giving DWade some real problems -- and isn't bailing him out with fouls.

Maybe Skiles won't be so hesitant to put the muthafucka in nowadays!

By the way
I was totally not against Thabo shooting that pull up three. He was feeling it, he earned it, and lately he's shown he can hit it.

If the was Gordon, they wouldn't say shit.

when has he shown he can hit it?

by milesgmsu on Apr 21, 2007 3:33 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I love it
It is amazing. I wouldn't mind if the Bulls got him but i don't know much about him or Spencer Hawes. The only 2 i know are Hibbert and Oden.

by SRQman on Apr 21, 2007 3:28 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Interesting
Heat's top scorers are
Shaq-17
Wade-12
Walker-11
3 tied with 2

Can we shut down Wade and Shaq and pull away. I hope so.

by SRQman on Apr 21, 2007 3:30 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

how many have you seen?
for being 6'11 he doesnt seem to get that high...i mean i guess he doesnt or maybe ive been spoiled by ben and tyrus but his head was so far below the rim...anyoen else catch the camio by herman?

by milesgmsu on Apr 21, 2007 3:33 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Hmmm...
If the Bulls get in a position to protect a decent lead(KNOCK on wood), would they want Thabo or Kirk on Wade? I'm thinking Thabo right now. I love Kirk, but...

by jai on Apr 21, 2007 3:29 PM CDT   0 recs

Let's not
forget so early how good Hinrich is on Wade. If anything, just replace him with Du in the rotation.
The only Yi Jianlian fan here

by Option27 on Apr 21, 2007 3:30 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I agree
if Thabo keeps this up he might push Du back in the rotation which i think would be good. Have Hinrich and Thabo be the guarders on Wade for the series.

know we're gonna have to sit through sox yankees highlights for half an hour and 25 mins on bonds just to get recaps of the playoffs on SC

way to pick it up!
Nice response to the Heinrich situation. I like Thabo's composure, BenG's too.

by jai on Apr 21, 2007 3:40 PM CDT   0 recs

heres what im thinking
peej is a veteran player and kirk is the cap'n and for all intents and purposes a veteran....

SO...

they're watching the game and they see that when thabo (are we ever going to give him a nickname or is it just thabo) and noch are in, we play awesome....so they both draw fouls to get benched
