Bulls vs Celtics Game 3 Series Tied 1-1

Oh wear the white, we are at home, always wear what they are, unless of course your going to the game.

Hopefully we get the homecourt advantage calls like the Celtics got in the first two games. If the refs give us those, I think we will easily defend our home court, at least for these first two games at the UC.

Salmons looked better in Game 2 than Game 1 so hopefully the 2 days off helped him. It's real simple tonight Rose has to be aggressive and the bigs need to show up on the boards.

Tonight is the night that Tyrus puts all his energy in crashing the boards. I'd rather Tyrus score 2 points but grab 15 rebounds tonight because rebounding will win the game

We can't let Boston split here so this is a must win

 

[PJ Brown]

I'm thinking another nailbiter tonight. Not sure which way to go, but I'm leaning Bulls with a narrow win. Let's rebound, get Rose going, and consider keeping a time out or two for the closing seconds.

See red campaign looks good so far about 80%. Also, nsb I got you a playoff media guide.

I played this on 2k9 early. 39 point Bulls win. Tyrus Thomas = 5 blocks. Tim Thomas was the player of the game with 26 points off the bench. Ben Gordon, 22 points and even a block on Rondo. Derrick Rose 15 points and 6 assists.

I am currently envious of every person who is going to the game...and I'm going to miss half the game too (due to AP review sessions which I kinda have to go to if I don't want to bomb AP tests). Sigh...the restrictions of high school. Well, I'll be listening for extremely loud cheers throughout the first half. I hope the guys going will help generate a loud crowd. Those are very encouraging for players (I speak from limited experience).

One of Rose's brothers isn't wearing red.

I really shouldn't watch the first few minutes of this game, and just watch this thing in its entirety, but I can't help myself.

Vinny Del Negro must be reading my site. Force feed Gordon on the first play for a drive to get Perkins in foul trouble. Perfect start for the Bulls.

John Salmons is playing like an idiot to start the game. Take him out, put Kirk or Timmy in.

I take that back! Salmons finally going to have his big shooting night?

 

[PJ Brown]

Ew. Poor foul shooting will cost you a playoff game. Stop that now. I like the offense and the engergy--I'd feel a lot better if Pearce wasn't on.

 

[PJ Brown]

Ben is missing his shots. Let's hope that changes.

 

[PJ Brown]

No attempts for Rose. Ben 0-3 plus missed FTs. Thank goodness for Johnny.

 

[PJ Brown]

Rose heating up and Murbury checked in. Can do. Stop missing FTs, Bulls!

 

[engies]

disgraceful start 9 turnovers & miss 6 free throws

if we had only missed 2 of them it would only be a 7 pt lead and if we didnt turn over i can only imagine this game would be closer

 

[PJ Brown]

make it ten turnovers now. defense anyone? somebody get in front of rondo!

 

[PJ Brown]

sorry, eleven TOs.

 

[Shakes]

Rondo killing us again ... so much for Boston being the "big 3".

 

[clonetrooper264]

Atrocious 1st quarter. Hopefully we can stop missing FTs and stop turning it over
