I am not sure if even ToasterRabbit will be enough to overcome King James.... and hes fucking ToasterRabbit.... dat says alot.

 

[Scoot26]

If Toaster Rabbite plays like he did in Game 6... this game is ours.

Maybe he needs to punch Kyrie in the face

I think if he does that shit again, he will be suspended lol.

I also expect Perkins to see 5 minutes of playing time in Game 1 just to send a message to Chicago.

that's when Nazr enters the game to **** up LeBron or kyrie then :buttrock:

That message being... "I wash Lebron's jock strap."

Haha, I just don't see Thibs playing that game.

Nazr only played in 2013 because the Bulls were so short handed.

man I loved it though still

Does anyone know when teams have to submit their starting lineups?


Im curious to see if Cleveland is indeed starting small ball or not, or if they'll switch to it after the start.

probably not a confirmed 100% thing still but it seems that it will be Thompson starting and then like you said LeBron at the 4 a good bit after

Maybe they'll pull that nonsense where they announce one starting lineup during the intro and then swap a player out afterwards for the tip

Thought that was illegal now a days.

Well look who decided to show up...

I dunno. I remember the Sixers doing it near the end of the regular season. But no one cares because it's the Sixers.

Just an "Aw, that's cute" kinda situation.

 

[Naptastic]

Bulls in five. They win game 1, as always, get up on the series 2-0, and play with high energy and focus. ?
