NBA: 1st Rd: [1] Boston Celtics vs [8] Chicago Bulls

[D-Wade]

Flash time

[Robz4000]

Celtics gonna get swept as the one seed. This will be the most embarrassing playoff exit of all time.

[Arcadian]

They need Horford to provide some offense

[Robz4000]

Wade going holocaust on the Celtics

[unleashbaynes]

God damn. The Bulls are raping this fraud.

[spursistan]

If Bulls win the series Butler is definitely not getting traded, and if he does, Celtics have to sell the farm for him..
.
At this point PG --who could be a rental for one year before he bolts to LA-- is the only star option they have in the summer unless they think Hayward is the guy..

[apalisoc_9]

So next year, are we going to hand out free MVPs again to Point Guards?

But he's under 6'5...It so good watching the smaller guys play..i feel like its me in the court.

[spursistan]

Also, putting Brad Stevens in the same tier with Pop/Carlisle ..

[spursistan]

Probably the worst Top seed ever of any conference..

Not Stevens' fault this Celtics team is chock full of role players and fake stars. Give him a legit star like Butler and they could've somewhat challenged the Cavs. This impending sweep is thanks to Ainge.

[Mr. Body]

Al Horford looks pathetic as the only guy with size trying to rebound for the Celtics.

[Robz4000]

Love this Zipser kid. Never saw him before tonight.

[timtonymanu]

Well no one was surprised Celtics melted down like this. Definition of regular season team all year. And have overtaken the Raptors in that category.

[Mr. Body]

Probably the worst Top seed ever of any conference..

Not their fault really. They're a four or five seed, the rest of the conference just sucks.

[FkLA]

IT is a 91% FT shooter and shot 7-13 from the line today according to the box score.

Didn't really watch the game. Is his sister's death noticeably affecting his play?

[Arcadian]

This is the team that overtook the defending champions in the standings
East... gots

Nah..there was a quite premature ejacuation over dude who won a measly 2 playoffs games..ESPN ranked him above RC recently..

[Silver&Black]

Nobody picked Bulls in 4. Guess we're all wrong...

Nope, just your typical 5'11" PG getting his pushed in by defenders half a foot taller. The rest of his team is mediocre too.

Ainge about to get swept by the player he refused to trade for

East... gots

[sasaint]

Ainge

He should get canned. The draft picks he stubbornly wasted instead of swinging some deals...

[Robz4000]

Stevens actually winning two playoff games with this team is a testament to his prowess. I mean, if you take IT off it this team shouldn't win 25 games.

I think Cleveland tanked to get away from the Bulls.

[Clipper Nation]

I think Cleveland tanked to get away from the Bulls.

Why would the Cavs be scared of playing the Bulls? The Bulls are punking the Celtics right now because Boston's first option on offense is a midget who turns into Jamal Crawford in the playoffs every year and they have soft bigs who can't rebound. Cleveland doesn't have any of those problems.

[DPG21920]

How did BOS get the 1 seed? I mean, they play hard, but man, they struggle against gameplanning.
