[dougthonus]

Bulls are doing a great job swatting the ball out of the hands of the Boston big men.

Looked like a travel to me. Funk and King thought it was a horrible foul call.

Then again, I'll take Doug's assertion over Funk and King.

No we face the winner of philly and magic and then after that if we win we will face the winner of Cavs vs Hawks/Heat

He took down an entire Vampire Empire single-handly and now he wants a piece of the refs.

Should have been an offensive foul, because the guy extended his arm into Gordon. Otherwise, without that, and if it was just body/leg contact, it should have been a block.

DUDE! MC LOVIN!! Dammit he's a C's fan though.

 

[dougthonus]

Bulls should go to the small lineup. Boston has no answer for it.

I wanna play McLovin if they ever make a bio-pic about his life

 

[dougthonus]

One thing I've noticed, John Salmons is not a catch and shoot player. He likes to have his man on him keep the ball low and then shoot over him.

He gets lots of catch and shoot opportunities and rarely shoots the three.

You've got the pre-pubescent look down, that's for sure.

 

[mlewinth]

Seriously, I would let pirates attack me if it meant I could go on the floor during a Bulls game.

 

[dougthonus]

Oh man, Kirk has got to shoot that open 3, passes it up and takes a tough fade away 2 instead.

 

[Diddy1122]

Big Baby is easily playing himself into a MLE contract next year. Probably won't b with the C's though.

 

[dougthonus]

We'd better be ready to roll the 4 guard lineup out there in the fourth quarter.

that was a foul...and most of the fouls boston have gotten called downlow have been fouls except that weak call on the davis layup, foul on rose....

BUT the refs arent giving the bulls bigs the same calls...a couple of possessions back Noah got bumped hard as soon as he went up for the shot...if you're not going to call contact down low...please do it for both teams

I think money will be too short next year. I bet you see very few full MLEs given out.

He'd be a solid edition to the Bulls front court if we want to spend the money. We could use him to set screens for Gordon and we always find our bigs in position to shoot, so he could just sit there hitting open jumpshots.

They gave Ray Allen his 4th on a BS call, so I have a hard time complaining. I think the officiating has been pretty poor but not favoring either team.
