IGT: Bulls vs. Heat Thursday 04/12/2012 7:00 p.m. CT

Why can't Hue admit when he's wrong?
Why is he acting like a ***** when he should allready have known that if the Bulls beat the Heat tonight that we were going to ride his ass....Especially after all his shit talk earlier today...
He should have expected this.....And he shouldn't take it so personal.....just having fun with the guy like he always rides mewhen I look stupid.....

You didn't see me acting like a ***** when my JRSmith theories didn't happen or when JR was a complete embaressment against the Bulls the last 2 games..


Its called being a good sport and just saying,"you were right" when wrong......simple basic manners.
Its nothing personal, this is a fan messageboard.

The Bulls beat the Heat and Hue is mad....If this don't prove he's a Lebron fan first over the Bulls, then I don't know what does.
Just calling it how I see it

My boy SP94 talking the TRUTH and nothing but the TRUTH.

Good win without a productive Rose tonight. I'm glad they won, but there's still work to be done in the last 7 games of the year. Let's worry about Rose getting fully healthy and getting his chemistry going with Rip. One step at a time, guys.

This game is over. On to the next one.

 

[scottiepippen1994]

Miamis biggest problem is that there dumbazz coach has absolutely no confidence in his pointguards..
He's got Lebron playin point for most the game and then wonders why it doesn't work.
He has the three divas literally scoring 90% of the teams points. The rest of the team totalling 15....that's a loosing plan.......It gets Lebron off his game as well, which is to concentrate on scoring...
The Heat need a bench and real ball distributer....

Maybe they would trade Lebron for Rose

 

[RC_Skinny22]

2:0 IGT record!

God I can´t wait to argue with a German basketball magazine on Facebook again! They actually wanted to tell me that the Heat have a better bench than the Bulls! SMH!

Man I´m so hyped, I´m gonna play dat all day!

What the hell happened in here?

Is it really that serious?

Actually neither...I would rather you keep my name out your mentions...don't need your attention.

You know I'm generally reserved, Hou. I understand that you, FT and a few others are simply being critical of the team, since it hasn't won anything since '98. But both of you have to admit last night's victory was hands down our most impressive, regular season or not, in quite some time. Rose was completely flat, had absolutely no explosion, couldn't make a shot. He couldn't get to the basket. I mean... he went 1 for 13. The only saving grace for Rose last night was he was able to get 8 assists in his 25 minutes.

But let's be honest with each other. Last night's game was a statement. The only player who logged more than 32 minutes was Deng. He hit some huge threes and played some fantastic defense. Watson stepped in huge for Rose, Korver hit some bombs that seriously made this feel like a playoff game. What impressed me the most was the lockdown defense played during the last five minutes of regulation and overtime. Asik and Gibson looked all-world.

Could I be "overracting"? Sure, I guess. But everyone has to admit -- the Bulls are the best team in the NBA. Period. We've beat the Heat twice without Rose and our only loss was a four-point defeat. So, can we finally shut up with the, "This team can't beat the Heat in the playoffs" bullshit? This Bulls team can beat whoever we want on any given night. With or without Rose. We've proved it time and time again.

I understand that you, FT and a few others are simply being critical of the team, since it hasn't won anything since '98.

Then you don't understand a thing.

Not at all why I'm "critical" of the team.

Your base assumption is off.

But both of you have to admit last night's victory was hands down our most impressive, regular season or not, in quite some time.

Ok? I'm not sure that's true. Even if it is. Who cares? It doesn't mean much of anything in the grand scheme of things really. We saw that last year. It's a funky NBA season. Compressed schedule etc. The playoffs are a different animal. Schedule isn't compressed. Extra days off, one of the Bulls biggest advantages(depth) is somewhat muted by that fact. The Bulls are still sitting two star players in crunch time etc.

It's a good win. Honestly, I watched all of 15 minutes of the game last night. I was out doing training for a half marathon. I watched bits and pieces on DVR last night before I went to bed.

Last night's game was a statement.

No it wasn't.

It was a regular season win.

An OT win at home when you were a made FT/jumper away from likely losing the game isn't a statement win.

Could I be "overracting"?

You are. Big time.

Par for the course for this site.

Sure, I guess. But everyone has to admit -- the Bulls are the best team in the NBA. Period.

No they aren't.

I believe OKC is.

"This team can't beat the Heat in the playoffs" bullshit?

No. Because they haven't beaten the Heat in the playoffs.

 

[Glide2keva]

Right on cue. "It's the regular season"

I wonder what he would say if the heat had won?

 

[FirstTimer]

Right on cue. "It's the regular season"

I wonder what he would say if the heat had won?

That it's the regular season.

:dunno:

Seeing as I'm not a Heat fan..what the hell would it have mattered?

 

[JosMin]

Right on cue. "It's the regular season"

Who knows, who cares? All I know is that we won. I could care less who's on the floor when we win. That appears to be the big issue with FT -- Noah and Boozer weren't on the floor during OT or the final minutes of regulation. Welp, neither was Rose. ****, can we just amnesty all of them?

And FT, I wasn't saying the ONLY reason you're critical of the team is because we haven't won anything in a while. You read that wrong. I'm saying that's a portion of your argument. I understand completely -- we didn't beat Miami in the postseason last year, so there's no sense in getting excited about, once again, beating them in the regular season, since we did that last year.

The season is "fluky," I totally agree with that. But it's fluky for everyone. Unlike most teams, we're finding ways to continue to win under these circumstances. That's what everyone on this site is excited about. You, for some reason, feel the need to chastise everyone because they can't articulate themselves in a way that doesn't come off as "being a homer." Troll if you want, but everyone's just proud of the team's effort. We're putting up W's instead of L's. Regardless of who's on the floor. That's what turns a good team into a great one. I'm not saying we're great yet, because yes, we haven't won anything. But we could certainly be headed that way.

And I completely disagree with the OKC statement, but that's another animal. Troll away, pal.

 

[Glide2keva]

And of course Inside the NBA didn't even mention the game.

This, all of this.

Tired of these Debbie Downers

Point went WAY over your head.

As usual.

And FT, I wasn't saying the ONLY reason you're critical of the team is because we haven't won anything in a while.

Well either way you're wrong.

So...par for the course.

I'm saying that's a portion of your argument.

Wrong.

I understand completely

No, you obviously don't if you think the Bulls not winning for a while has ANYTHING to do with my feelings on this team.

we didn't beat Miami in the postseason last year, so there's no sense in getting excited about, once again, beating them in the regular season, since we did that last year.

Partially.

The season is "fluky," I totally agree with that. But it's fluky for everyone.

Exactly.

So how do you or anyone draw broad sweeping conclusions about "statement wins" yada yada yada based on ONE game?

You can't call something a statement win THEN admit the entire season is flukey for everyone.

Nice work torpedoing your own argument.

Unlike most teams, we're finding ways to continue to win under these circumstances.

So are other teams.

That's what everyone on this site is excited about.

No. People are excited because they are

You, for some reason, feel the need to chastise everyone because they can't articulate themselves in a way that doesn't come off as "being a homer."

Yes. I have an issue with people being stupid.

Not my fault.

That's their fault for being dumb.


Use your words.

, but everyone's just proud of the team's effort.

And who said I'm not?

Being "proud" of something =/= to automatically making grand predictions for an NBA playoff series off of a win during a, by your own admission, flukey NBA season.

Troll away, pal.

I'm not trolling.

You're just to dumb to understand what's being said.

 

[scottiepippen1994]

What the hell happened in here?

Is it really that serious?

Actually in a way it is.
We beat our biggest currant rival and threat twice without our best player for the most part.
But I guess its meaningless...:dunno:

 

[JosMin]

A bunch of poor grammar and you saying the same thing over and over again.

The only thing I can recall from your wall of shit was the thing about me torpedoing my argument. All I was doing was addressing your statement. Either way, I'm glad you were able to find something to spark another argument with.

Let's keep talking about how the Bulls aren't going to beat the Heat come playoff time. I'm all ears. Let's talk about how shitty Boozer and Noah are in the fourth quarter. Let's talk about how depth doesn't matter. About how coaching apparently doesn't matter, etc. Come on, FT. I'm off today. All I've got is time.

 

[FirstTimer]

It's nice to see that in Rami's absence JosMin has picked up the flag of "stupid person with a blue name making bad arguments"

 

[JosMin]

It's nice to see that in Rami's absence JosMin has picked up the flag of "stupid person with a blue name making bad arguments"

It kind of hurts you'd put me in the same conversation as Rami. Either way, I'm just trying to rationalize everyone else's feelings about the team. You're the guy who wants to argue with everyone and talk about being a fan, yet I've never seen you say one positive thing about the team.

If that's what you want to do, that's fine, man. I've got nothing against you. You're the one who continually wants to poke at a rattlesnake and irritate everyone because it's what makes you happy. We're all just here to talk about the team and have fun. That's what fans do -- they overreact on wins and losses. They overemphasize beating rivals and losing to them. If you don't like it, ignore everyone.

 

[FirstTimer]

The only thing I can recall from your wall of shit was the thing about me torpedoing my argument.

Again, you're dumb.

All I was doing was addressing your statement.

And at the same time torpedoing your own argument!

Congrats.

JM: This was a statement win by the Bulls.

FT: Tough to call this a statement win with the NBA season being so flukey do the lockout. Cray shit going on.

JM: Very true the NBA season is flukey this year.

FT: Then how can anything being a "statement" win if the season is flukey?



JM: ...............

Let's keep talking about how the Bulls aren't going to beat the Heat come playoff time.

I never said the Bulls couldn't.

In fact, I have said the exact opposite.

I just said I wouldn't pick them to.

That's not some declaration of fact. It's a guess/prediction/analysis.

I'm all ears.

Who cares if you are? What I have been saying all morning has been going over your head. You being "all ears" is rather underwhelming.

Let's talk about how shitty Boozer and Noah are in the fourth quarter. Let's talk about how depth doesn't matter About how coaching apparently doesn't matter, etc.

Never said any of that.
Perhaps you should take issue with the person who said those things?
