IGT Game 1: Bulls vs. Sixers 4/28/12 12:00 p.m. CT

He needs to average more than 15ppg against the Heat because last year in the ECF he disappeared.

Won't happen this year. Last year he was relied heavily on to provide scoring in that series because Boozer was injured, Deng was playing like crap, & our starting SG was Bogans. He's much more comfortable in his role now, his teammates know his spots better, & he has been much more consistent with his jumper.

And it doesn't hurt that Miami's perimeter D has been a shell of what it was last season (25th in the league in opp. 3pt %).

over/under

Korver Averages 18ppg for the series

Under.

 

[Deng Defense Force]

I don't like the start time. The Bulls always seem to struggle in day games. :nervous:

Atleast it will be 7:00pm in Bullseye's timezone. That has to count for something.

 

[Bear06]

Last year Game 1 against the Pacers started at 12:00 PM also I believe.

 

[zack54attack]

Yeah, last years game started at the same time.

Sucks because I'm going to the Windy City Sole Summit...which starts at 12 -__-

I agree.

Korver has never averaged 15ppg in a playoff series...ever. Not even close. He averages exactly half of that lofty total for his career in the playoffs. His job is to hit timely shots, not a voluminous amount of shots.

Historically, Korver's numbers go down across the board in the playoffs. So I wouldn't expect him to do something he has never done.

And in 2009, the Bulls started against the Celtics on a Saturday morning. Rose scored 36(?) in that game. So that means 3 out of 4 seasons, the Bulls have kicked off the playoffs. The first 2 times were on ESPN, this time its on TNT. I don't watch localized feeds when a national feed is available. So I will be watching TNT.

Rose scored 36 points and had 11 assists, tying KAJ for the best rookie playoff debut in league history.

And SMH at watching the TNT feed. They absolutely suck. With any luck you'll get to hear Kevin Harlan jizz his VS's over routine plays.

I'm watching Niel and Stacey until I can't anymore.

The waiting is killing me.

Woke up early and on my facebook status about the game today some idiot chimed in saying the Bulls were going to be a first round exit. It's too damn early to be that negative for one and for two, this person has no clue what the hell they are talking about.

Did I forget to mention this person is a minister? My bad she isn't a minister, she's Jesus Pimp that cusses and drinks.

Let's get it BULLS fans, the march to the title starts today! **** the naysayers, doubters haters or whatever. We are going to be partying in Grant Park this June.

The Championship Cruise begins and ends right here in Chicago.

 

[Venom]

Bulls by 2.

 

[Venom]

Great IGT btw.

[sach1]

Good luck Bulls.

 

[thechosenone]

****. I will miss the game too. I have to go to work. Emergency call. Good luck for the Bulls. I will watch it later for sure. If everything goes as planed today it will be a blowout. Bulls by 40. It's only Bulls vs Bulls. The only way to lose this game is to have a bad shooting night that happens some times with this team.

 

[Glide2keva]

Can't wait for Niel and Stacey.

**** Kevin Harlan

**** the NBA for rushing my day, and getting the team up early for this crappy start time so the Heat can be featured.

Go Bulls!
