[D2Procon]

Lets go bulls!!!!

[D2Procon]

Cavs just jacking up threes.....

[The_Dude]

Cavs impersonating the Magic and jacking up threes.

[LoneStarState'sPride]

LOL @ sideline reporters trying to tell dramatic stories about the look in players' eyes.

[Warlord23]

LOL Brad Miller's corpse

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Cavs just jacking up threes.....

coz they can?

[Muser]

lol brad miller.

[D2Procon]

coz they can?

cool story bro

[Muser]

clear charge

[D2Procon]

Is Joakim Noah the fastest center in the NBA?

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Got DAYUM what a flush from James.

[The_Dude]

clear charge

Makeup for the blown call at the end of game 3.

[D2Procon]

Joakim Noah with 10 Rebounds !!!!!

[itzsoweezee]

shaq is finished

[Fpoonsie]

I swear to LUCIFER, if Shaq rings ridin' the coattails of "the King", I might just go on some kinda shooting spree at whichever Denny's he decides to celebrate in post-game.

Sure wish Miller would do something suspension-worthy to him...like maybe punch Shaq in the fat flap covering up his (alleged) startlingly petite diq.

[Fpoonsie]

Thank Christ. I was hoping they wouldn't go a WHOLE half w/o bringin up the Lebron/MJ head-to-head stat screen.

[ajGambino]

I can't stress enough how much garbage Varejao is.

What a piece, that guy. He should be an actor. The dude's game is ACTING.

Hate him almost as much as Terry.

You manage to say that with a straight face and not think about Parker or Manu doing it too? Almost all European players act.

Varejao hustles his ass off, so I give him props.

How can you hate an elite role-player like Vareja? Terrific energy, hustle, excellent defender, rebounds the ball, doesn't need the ball to impact the game, great cutter.... as of now, he's the Cavs 2nd best player.

[Muser]

Varejao on the Spurs would be sweet.

[mogrovejo]

I prefer Noah to Varejao though. Varejao is the best offensive player, but Noah's large advantage rebounding wise makes him a better player. I'd love to have any of them in my team.

[Muser]

Both a guys who can get in the opponents head, perfect example of players who you hate but would love on your team.

Also lol @ LeBron getting that steal, I bet he could suplex someone and there wouldn't be a call.

[Killakobe81]

Magic is sily the best for the next 15 years?!
if you count his first 5 seasons 15 years maybe possible but next 15?

come on Magic you are my all time fave you are BETTER than that ...

[Killakobe81]

Sad to see karl like that I doubt he comes back even if Thugz adavance ...

[cobbler]

Does Lebron jokingly play with the ball boys like that all the time or was he being a dick when he came back from the locker room and entered the game? The kid has his hands out to catch his pants and shirt and LBJ looks at him and tosses them on the court one by one. I'm hoping it was all fun playing...

[ajGambino]

Very true. But those guys are on MY team. :lol

Manu and Parker are floppers...floppers with talent!

[Fpoonsie]

I don't know what's harder to look at: Karl, morose, getting up to leave, or Scott's cock-eyed look at (I'm assuming) the camera.

:lol

Noticed that, too. Though, I doubt too many players really care about how easy they're making it for the ball-boys to pick shit up. I'm assuming they figure the kids consider it a treat to simply be there in the first place.

[The_Dude]

I don't think LeBron, or anyone else playing, cares about handing their tear-offs right to the ballboys. Those kids sometimes get some pretty awesome tips.

[Fpoonsie]

Ouchies.

[Warlord23]

Finally Shaq does something useful for the Cavs ... Rose lands on his foot

[Sportstudi]

The Bulls are getting destroyed.

[Pelicans78]

Glad Cleveland is putting this team away. I'm tired of watching the Bulls. Same story every season. Good perimeter play, bangers down low, but no one who can score in the paint, whether its Tyson Chandler, Ben Wallace, PJ Brown, Tyrus Thomas or even Noah.

Why is the 1st round really a best of 7? Do we really want to see Phoenix-Portland, Bulls, Bucks-Hawks, or Charlotte-Magic more than 5 games?

[The_Dude]

Man, I went to take a dump and by the time I got back I see the Cavs took a dump on Chicago.

[bostonguy]

No surprises here. The best team by far in basketball decided to make a statement today.

[DJ Mbenga]

what a brick fest

[bostonguy]

Cavs are going to be winning like this the rest of the way. NO ONE is even in their class. They are all by themselves at the top. Lebron getting help=game over for the rest of the league.

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Makes fluke upsets less likely. No, nobody wants to watch a Bucks-Hawks series go 7, but at the same time, even an NBA 8 seed can get hot and win 2 straight games at home. Throw in a fluke win on the road, and all of a sudden you've got a relatively weak "Cinderella" teams advancing deep in the playoffs (a la the NCAA tournament).

The better team almost always will prevail in a 7 game series, and the better teams (not the luckiest ones) are what people want to see in the later rounds at this level of basketball.

[The_Dude]

Wow LeBron just nails a long ass 3 at the buzzer.

[LoneStarState'sPride]

Jesus CHRIST, James from halfcourt. The man is ridiculous.

[The_Dude]

The best thing is, he took it like a normal jump shot. Flex those muscles young man.

Be right back - need to pick my jaw up off the floor.

[Pelicans78]

The 8 over 1 seed was extremely rare. Happened what, twice?

5 games is definitely enough to see which team is better than the other. This isn't baseball.

[Killakobe81]

Wow. im still partial to what Wade did (today)as a1 man crew but LBJ is pretty damn impressive ...

I bore witnes during his 1st Finals run ...then pulled back the past couple due the shaky jumper ....but i MAY bare witness again soon.

[DJ Mbenga]

how many houses have the bulls built with all their bricks?

[Killakobe81]

You maybe rightr but we will see. I think Celts and magic can make them work ...doubt Lakers can but we will see (IF the Lakers make it that far)

Oh, I don't disagree with you--just regurgitating the "reasoning" I've heard over the years. Heh, I was pissed when they went to 7-7-7-7 in '03--until the Finals were over, that is ;)

[hitmanyr2k]

Lebron is ridiculous. I expected this kind of game to be honest. The Bulls played as well as they could in Game 3 and the Cavs played as bad as they could and still the game was a nailbiter. Lebron brought the balanced game today and the defense and that's basically the story. The Bulls can't keep shooting lights out forever.

[BanditHiro]

yea especially if West Williams and Parker disappear like they do in the playoffs a lot of the time

[ForeignFan]

Too bad the Bulls cannot shoot from the outside and lack scorers inside. Noah keeps fighting though. I think he scored 6 or 8 pts in a row on the 3rd. Really hope the Bulls use their cap room well next year

Did you see game 3? The Bulls made more outside shots in that game than they did all season. The Cavs are petty much letting Noah do whatever he wants, for some reason, but have shut down everyone else.

[Fpoonsie]

Why are the starters still in, specifically Lebron "Stat-Pad" James?

[BanditHiro]

Why are the starters still in?

sending a message i guess

[Crookshanks]

There's no drama in the Eastern Conference. The top seeds are just too much for the lower seeds. The games aren't even entertaining to watch.

[The_Dude]

The starters were on the bench to start the 4th, and then the bench forgot to play on both ends. The Cavs put LeBron and Jamison back in to right the ship.

[ForeignFan]

Yope - the Bulls played above their level in game 3. Today, outside shooting is really bad since 3rd quarter. Deng just disappeared, Hinrich is in foul trouble, etc

Ah. Gotcha.

I've been flippin' back-n-forth between this game and "You've Got Mail." Musta' missed it.

Oh, cool. When is your boyfriend coming over with the ice cream?


:cheer

Dude, I know. Just can't help myself. I love the move and especially Meg Ryan, before she took full-blown-alien form.
