Game 4 Thread: Chicago Vs. Indiana

[Spur-Addict]

Is this the last game of the series? All of the games have been really good so far in my opinion.

[NewJerSpur]

Pacers in yellow.

[NewJerSpur]

Ketchup vs. Mustard

[Spur-Addict]

Wow, there are more Bulls fans there than last game.

[Spur-Addict]

All jokes aside, Mustard is the superior condiment.

[NewJerSpur]

Nice defense by Bogans...the Bulls fan are out in full force in Conseco, even more so than the other night.

[resistanze]

So who's the home team?

[NewJerSpur]

Wow, there are more Bulls fans there than last game.

Thinking the same......I'll generally take ketchup though. :hat

[NewJerSpur]

So who's the home team?

Hamburger...that ball was still on the cylinder.

[VBM]

Feels like a March Madness game...50/50 crowd

[Reck]

Pacers are a tease. They make you think they're about to win the game but in the end..just a tease. Imagine how those Pacers fan feel. lol

[NewJerSpur]

Paul George is making a name for himself these playoffs on defense and hustle.

[Spur-Addict]

Collison needs to play within his abilities.

Boozer certainly must be a disappointment to Bulls fans this series. If they lost a game or two, the focus would definetly be on him.

[NewJerSpur]

Foster getting ready to do more damage.

[NewJerSpur]

Granger's ankles need re-taping.

[Spur-Addict]

Strong move there by Granger.

[hitmanyr2k]

Foster getting ready to do more damage.

Foster was trying to play the same role that Zaza was doing to the Magic in Game 3. He wants Rose or Deng to retaliate like J-Rich.

[Spur-Addict]

I'd give Tyler some post up opportunities. Boozer has been exposed this series.

[hitmanyr2k]

Collison needs to play within his abilities.

Boozer certainly must be a disappointment to Bulls fans this series. If they lost a game or two, the focus would definetly be on him.

To anyone who's watched Boozer throughout his career it's no surprise at all.

[Spur-Addict]

What's the over/under on the amount of 3's Korver hits this game? LOL

[NewJerSpur]

Foster was trying to play the same role that Zaza was doing to the Magic in Game 3. He wants Rose or Deng to retaliate like J-Rich.

Bulls were smart enough to not fall for the bait......J-Rich reacted like a rookie.

[Spur-Addict]

To anyone who's watched Boozer throughout his career it's no surprise at all.

True. But it's usually taller, and longer opponents who give him a lot of trouble.

[NewJerSpur]

What's the over/under on the amount of DAGGER's Korver hits this game? LOL

Fixed.

[Spur-Addict]

Jaime Maggio/Magglo or whatever her name is gets the thumbs up

[NewJerSpur]

Boozer only likes to get physical with small forwards and below size wise.

[hitmanyr2k]

I'm keeping trAck of the Boozer soundboard today. So far we've had

"GIMMIE THAT"
"GET DAT JO!!"
"EY"

I'm waiting for "BLOCK THAT SHIT"

[NewJerSpur]

Granger playing like he doesn't want to go home. Hibbert still finishing poorly at the rim.

[hitmanyr2k]

Add "Goddamit" to the list.

[NewJerSpur]

I'm keeping trAck of the Boozer soundboard today. So far we've had

"GIMMIE THAT"
"GET DAT JO!!"
"EY"

I'm waiting for "BLOCK THAT SHIT"

:lol:lmao

Funny Boozer barks out instructions for other bigs to do his job.

[Spur-Addict]

I'm keeping trAck of the Boozer soundboard today. So far we've had

"GIMMIE THAT"
"GET DAT JO!!"
"EY"

I'm waiting for "BLOCK THAT SHIT"

:lol

Soon we'll hear, "GET THAT SHIT"

[hitmanyr2k]

:lol:lmao

Funny Boozer barks out instructions for other bigs to do his job.

Exactly. One of the most frustrating things about his game chatter.

[hitmanyr2k]

Add EYYYYYYYYYYYY to the list.

Blessing in disguise he got his 2nd foul. Taj is so much better.

[Reck]

If only the Pacers weren't so mentally weak they would probably have been looking at a sweep of the Bulls. :lol

But come 4th quarter they'll do what they are supposed to do and let Rose torch them and close them out.

[NewJerSpur]

Even Stockton knows Boozer got blocked. Now the Bulls can pick it up, Boozer to the bench.

[Spur-Addict]

Weak call on Boozer

[NewJerSpur]

Bulls doubling Granger off of the screens.

[crc21209]

Dick Stockton always creaming his pants over Rose makes me not like Rose...:lol

[Spur-Addict]

See. Give Tyler a few looks.

[hitmanyr2k]

The offense sucks shit so far. Would it kill Thibs to try some pick and roll? I don't know why he's gone away from that lately.

[Spur-Addict]

Rose hobbling.

[NewJerSpur]

Damn those Bulls fans are loud, lol.

[NewJerSpur]

Wruh wroh Shaggy.

[crc21209]

Uhh ohhh....

[crc21209]

Well there goes the Bulls offense....:lol

[Spur-Addict]

That was a nasty turn of the ankle. Hate to see that

[hitmanyr2k]

It's all good. Deng is gonna have to take over.

[NewJerSpur]

Rose just getting ready to seal the series with an inspiring comeback for the ages.

[Spur-Addict]

Zaza LOL

[NewJerSpur]

See you in game 5 J-rich......fool.

[hitmanyr2k]

If Zaza were smart he would have tried baiting the guy who actually gave him the cheapshot in the first place. J-Rich is a huge loss for the Magic though. He's their best shot maker down the stretch of games.

[NewJerSpur]

TJ Ford would've made that, LOL. This game should go to at least 2OT if the Pacers don't fold.

[NewJerSpur]

If Zaza were smart he would have tried baiting the guy who actually gave him the cheapshot in the first place. J-Rich is a huge loss for the Magic though. He's their best shot maker down the stretch of games.

He didn't want any of Howard, just took his slap to the face and tried to turn it into a rallying cry to annoy the Magic.....J-Rich was the only dummy who went up to him after Dwight had already gotten his off.

[NewJerSpur]

Good call.

[romsey31]

hibbert needs to hit the weight room

[NewJerSpur]

Josh Rimrocker going Kevin McHale.

[hitmanyr2k]

Indiana has a lot of size on their team. A superstar player would have a nice cast there.

[NewJerSpur]

hibbert needs to hit the weight room

WHATUP ROMSEY!! Why so many Bulls fans in Conseco man?

[NewJerSpur]

Indiana has a lot of size on their team. A superstar player would have a nice cast there.

Good point....they may be turning back into an attractive destination for Free Agents.

[romsey31]

WHATUP ROMSEY!! Why so many Bulls fans in Conseco man?

lolol yeap last in attendance... im in the caribbean man

[NewJerSpur]

Not Taj's shot fading away.

[NewJerSpur]

lolol yeap last in attendance... im in the caribbean man

Then no matter what happens, you're good my friend, lol. :hat

[romsey31]

Indiana has a lot of size on their team. A superstar player would have a nice cast there.

we're hoping PG blossoms into a star, thats the only way we'll get one, or through the draft, no superstar is ever gonna come to indy

[NewJerSpur]

Boozer:

"God damn, call the foul!!"

[hitmanyr2k]

Boozer with another miss and a "GODDAMN WHERE'S THE FOUL". You soft bitch.

[NewJerSpur]

Good defense.

[romsey31]

Then no matter what happens, you're good my friend, lol. :hat

lolol

[NewJerSpur]

Dunleavy got whacked, unlike Jamaal Crawford.

[hitmanyr2k]

These players must feel like they're back in college :lol This game has a NCAA atmosphere.

[hitmanyr2k]

we're hoping PG blossoms into a star, thats the only way we'll get one, or through the draft, no superstar is ever gonna come to indy

If George does improve and Granger adds to his game (big if on Granger) they could be a nice duo.

[NewJerSpur]

we're hoping PG blossoms into a star, thats the only way we'll get one, or through the draft, no superstar is ever gonna come to indy

Media market?

Cost of living?

Too many Bulls fans?

[NewJerSpur]

Foster's back in, guard your grill & protect your neck.

[NewJerSpur]

Indiana is taking some TERRIBLE shots.

[hitmanyr2k]

I like what Indiana is doing to the Bulls in this series. I thought they had too soft of a schedule to finish the season and needed to be toughened up. They're giving Rose all the defensive looks he's going to see in later series.

[NewJerSpur]

That was weak Boozer.

[Axe Murderer]

Just tuned in, wow that place is full of Bulls fans :lol

[NewJerSpur]

That Chicago defense is suffocating Indiana right now, got to start looking for Granger.

[NewJerSpur]

Nice move not settling for a forced jumper.

[hitmanyr2k]

Boozer soundboard update....

"GIMMIE THAT"
"GET DAT JO!!"
"EY"
"GODDAMMIT"
"EYYYYYYYYYYYY"
"GODDAMN CALL THE FOUL"
"GIMMIE DAT EYYYYYYYY" (after the rebound was stolen from him)

All that in just the first half so far :lol

[Spur-Addict]

It is a sea of red in there.

[Spur-Addict]

Hibbert is missing a lot of 3-4 foot attempts.

[NewJerSpur]

In a few years, this may turn into a great rivalry once Indy gets over the hump....they don't look to be a fluke and Vogel seems to hold them accountable.

[hitmanyr2k]

Hibbert is missing a lot of 3-4 foot attempts.

He's pulling a Gasol...asking for the ball but not delivering so far.

[romsey31]

Media market?

Cost of living?

Too many Bulls fans?

lol i'll take too many bulls fans for 300 alex

[romsey31]

Hibbert is missing a lot of 3-4 foot attempts.

he neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds to hit the weight room

[NewJerSpur]

Boozer soundboard update....

"GIMMIE THAT"
"GET DAT JO!!"
"EY"
"GODDAMMIT"
"EYYYYYYYYYYYY"
"GODDAMN CALL THE FOUL"
"GIMMIE DAT EYYYYYYYY" (after the rebound was stolen from him)

All that in just the first half so far :lol

LOL, KG has at least one more game to one-up him in the 1st round.

[hitmanyr2k]

In a few years, this may turn into a great rivalry once Indy gets over the hump....they don't look to be a fluke and Vogel seems to hold them accountable.

People think because of their record they're some chump team. Since O'Brien was fired in January and Vogel took over they've been a very competitive team. They have size, depth, shooters. All that's missing is a true star. Granger is taking baby steps so far. I thought he'd be better by now.

[romsey31]

In a few years, this may turn into a great rivalry once Indy gets over the hump....they don't look to be a fluke and Vogel seems to hold them accountable.

haha we'll party again like its 98

[NewJerSpur]

Hibbert is missing a lot of 3-4 foot attempts.

Going in soft...definitely wouldn't hurt to build on that frame in the offseason.

[hitmanyr2k]

Man, Rose needs a fuckin finisher on this team. Someone who will take that pass and fuckin hammer it home. Boozer has never been that kind of finisher. He's too finesse.

[NewJerSpur]

haha we'll party again like its 98

:tu

[Spur-Addict]

lol Minus the stupid facial expressions


he neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds to hit the weight room

Pretty Much.

Boozer with another undersized PF offensive foul.

[NewJerSpur]

Pacers fans, AT THE GAME?!

[hitmanyr2k]

These fuckin threes. No movement in the offense. No one working for a good shot except Korver. Thibs has to be held accountable for this.

[NewJerSpur]

Mustard handing it back to Ketchup.

[NewJerSpur]

Indiana making crazy shots now.

[Spur-Addict]

Hibbs with the flop attempt

[NewJerSpur]

Good call, Pacers with the same strategy from GM 3:

"Noah, we'll give you the lane, prove to us we have to account for you.....please dump it off to Boozer if possible."

[romsey31]

we're just building towards next year, bird is gonna draft kyle singler or some other "88 celtic like player" and we'll keep building lol

[Spur-Addict]

Wow, Deng.

[hitmanyr2k]

Wow :lol Asik blocks on the shot and everyone in red quits on the play like that was it.

[romsey31]

Wow :lol Asik blocks on the shot and everyone in red quits on the play like that was it.

that was a great block

[Reck]

Pacers dont 'effing blow it in the second half please.

[NewJerSpur]

Less Boozer, more Asik? Haven't seen enough of him this series, was solid during the regular season.

[4>0rings]

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the Pacers will lead all but the last 2 minutes and lose.

[hitmanyr2k]

The Bulls have been a 2nd half team all season. Wouldn't surprise me.

[NewJerSpur]

ESPN filming Rose digging into his teammates for their next documentary.

[silverblk mystix]

Great defense by the Pacers...even better than the vaunted Bulls defense...

can they finish?

[4>0rings]

ZcX1PTOmvO8

[Andrew Bynum]

Bulls in big big trouble here. Who knows what can happen once the momentum in a series shifts. This Bulls team getting exposed.

[NewJerSpur]

Here we go.

[NewJerSpur]

Rose still struggling to get lift on his 3-point shots.

[hitmanyr2k]

How long does Thibs allow Rose to keep taking threes before calling a timeout and choking him?

[Spur-Addict]

Boozer Again: EYYYYY

[NewJerSpur]

Glad they started calling that travel this year and cleaning up the league.....was getting out of control for a while.

[hitmanyr2k]

Boozer saying GRAB THAT SHIT while standing flat-footed. Someone remind that stupid fuck that's his fuckin job.

[romsey31]

i love when rose settles for 3s

[NewJerSpur]

Boozer does more screaming than he does rebounding, blocking shots, boxing out.....

[NewJerSpur]

Boozer saying GRAB THAT SHIT while standing flat-footed. Someone remind that stupid fuck that's his fuckin job.

:lol

AAAAAAAAAAAMEEEEEN!!!

[NewJerSpur]

Hibbert doing work at the rim......on defense.

[Andrew Bynum]

Pacers fucking killing it!

[Spur-Addict]

At least four long range jumpshots so far in the third by Chi

[hitmanyr2k]

:lol Thank you Noah...the only guy trying to attack the rim in the half court.

[NewJerSpur]

Psycho T double dribbled off that rebound.

[hitmanyr2k]

Thank you Noah x2. Boozer take notes.

[NewJerSpur]

They are trapping Rose the hardest I've seen all season.

[romsey31]

why doesnt the third defender try to steal the long pass when they trap rose??????????????

[NewJerSpur]

Luol BANG.

[hitmanyr2k]

why doesnt the third defender try to steal the long pass when they trap rose??????????????

I was wondering the same but if you make that gamble and miss your team is gonna pay the price.

[hitmanyr2k]

The Bulls have gone three happy in this game. They've been a midrange team all season. And Boozer should have had an offensive foul there. That idiot lead with the off arm again instead of trying to finish strong.

[NewJerSpur]

Boozer trying to get tough and gets a "T", the irony, LOLOLOLOL. Mr. clearout.

[hitmanyr2k]

Rose is shredding these guys all of a sudden.

[NewJerSpur]

Boozer screaming for someone to block the shot, while Thomas does the work.

[NewJerSpur]

Nice jumper by Hibbert.

[hitmanyr2k]

Kurt Thomas is older than dirt but the guy can play some hard nosed defense.

[NewJerSpur]

Good decision by Rose.

[WeNeedLength]

This mixing of fans in Indiana is pretty shitty to see.

[NewJerSpur]

As Spur-Addict said earlier, there's a sea of red back there.

[Spur-Addict]

This mixing of fans in Indiana is pretty shitty to see.

So you support segregation? :lol

J/K

[hitmanyr2k]

Ball movement and player movement by the Bulls providing better offense. Who would have guessed? Hope they keep it up.

[Spur-Addict]

"Grab that shit'

[NewJerSpur]

Indiana had to know the Bulls were going to make a push, can they sustatin the effort and keep winning the battle on the offensive glass?

[romsey31]

Boozer trying to get tough and gets a "T", the irony, LOLOLOLOL. Mr. clearout.

Lol how u gon be tough when you get your eyebrows done?? COME ON SONN!

[NewJerSpur]

Lol how u gon be tough when you get your eyebrows done?? COME ON SONN!

:lol

[NewJerSpur]

That's 3FT's

[hitmanyr2k]

I'm about to choke-a-bitch. If Rose takes one more goddamn three I'm gonna put my arms in the screen. 2nd game straight he's had ridiculous shot selection.

[Spur-Addict]

I hate fouls on three point attempts.

[hitmanyr2k]

The fuck? I thought Dunleavy was a good shooter.

[NewJerSpur]

Dunleavy missing shots?

[romsey31]

we're choking again, GOD DAMIT

[NewJerSpur]

Must be the Bulls fan throwing him off.

[SourCandy]

I'm about to choke-a-bitch. If Rose takes one more goddamn three I'm gonna put my arms in the screen. 2nd game straight he's had ridiculous shot selection.

just trying to be kobe :lol

[hitmanyr2k]

Boozer playing hot potato while having a wide open shot 5 feet from the rim.

[NewJerSpur]

Price is right.

[Spur-Addict]

You dropped it off to Kurt Thomas in traffic? Really?

[NewJerSpur]

Kyle Korver trying to go 2003 Steve Kerr.

[DAF86]

I know I will be alone on this one but IMO Rose is a bit overrated.

[SourCandy]

Korver has that "built in" tunnel vision.

[NewJerSpur]

J-Rich, you're a fool.

[NewJerSpur]

Low score and questionable shot selection, but good action.

[NewJerSpur]

Foster=one man wrecking crew (in more ways than one)

[romsey31]

jeff foster is a beasttttttttt

[NewJerSpur]

Pacers still making the Bulls funnel everything to the middle and taking their chances.

[hitmanyr2k]

Noah with that tornado shot :lol

[hitmanyr2k]

Pacers are experts at flopping on the three. Price did it on Rose late in Game 2 and Dunleavy did it again. I can't believe the refs call that shit.

[NewJerSpur]

Noah with that tornado shot :lol

:downspin:

[NewJerSpur]

Kyle Korver being Kyle Korver.

[romsey31]

fucking korver! does anyone know his home address???

[hitmanyr2k]

Ooooh...Bulls got a break on that three. I didn't think Korver got it off at first glance.

[NewJerSpur]

Ooooh...Bulls got a break on that three. I didn't think Korver got it off at first glance.

Same here.....Jeff Foster doing work.

EDIT: Change that, I did think Korver got it off, but replay showed different. I'm under his spell.

[Reck]

LOL Boozer traveled and Korver with teh shot clock violention and still gets the call. Refs dont wanna see a game 5. :lol

[hitmanyr2k]

Korver has been one sick mofo in these playoffs :lol

[NewJerSpur]

Pacer's mascott fired up.

[Spurs Brazil]

Foster working hard for the Parcers and Kover with big shots for the Bulls

I still can't believe how many Bulls fans are in the arena.

[usdane]

Can't they go back and check that 3 in the timeout?

[romsey31]

Yessssss the 3 didnt count!

[NewJerSpur]

Can't they go back and check that 3 in the timeout?

There you go.

[hitmanyr2k]

If the lead isn't below double digits by the 4 minute mark the Pacers got this.

[usdane]

nevermind.

[NewJerSpur]

Where would the Pacers be this quarter without Foster on the offensive boards.

[romsey31]

could roses ankle be affecting him?

[romsey31]

Where would the Pacers be this quarter without Foster on the offensive boards.

down 0-3?

[hitmanyr2k]

Hmmmmm....Rose waits until god knows how many missed 3 pointers to decide to start using the floater that he's been using all season. May be too late to start doing it now.

[NewJerSpur]

could roses ankle be affecting him?

Looks okay. He just doesn't have the range/lift on that 3-pointer (and hasn't all series) but he's still shooting them anyway.

[hitmanyr2k]

could roses ankle be affecting him?

He's sure as hell not penetrating as much or working for a good shot but his ankle was fine in Game 3 and he did the same shit settling for threes. I think he's just gained a case of the "stupids" the last couple of games.

[NewJerSpur]

Nice pass by Granger, that's was in a tight window.

[romsey31]

Dam IF we had a closer we couldve been looking at a sweep of chicago right now, but yea never mind...

[NewJerSpur]

Rose is struuuugling.

[daspurs]

Lmfao rose

[usdane]

Indy got this. finally. Game 5 will not be easy for the Bulls.

[hitmanyr2k]

That's game over. I'm about to destroy my TV from the stupidity I'm seeing. The shot selection and lack of player movement is disgusting.

[romsey31]

come on granger clock recognition

[romsey31]

rose is hurt bro..

[hitmanyr2k]

rose is hurt bro..

He's hurt in the head more than anything :lol

[NewJerSpur]

Yeesh.

[romsey31]

What the fuck??? These guys want to lose

[usdane]

Stop choking Indy.

[NewJerSpur]

Pacers clogging the lane on Rose, taking their chances.

[romsey31]

Thank God chi aint making shots.. the game would be tied by now

[NewJerSpur]

Props to Vogel for having his team compete all throughout this series. Even when they buckled, they never tanked.

[romsey31]

He's hurt in the head more than anything :lol

aight, since he's hurt i'd be willign to give you my entire team except our mascot for him

[hitmanyr2k]

Pacers clogging the lane on Rose, taking their chances.

They're not doing it as much though. Rose has had lanes to drive in quite a few possessions. He's just not doing it. He's settling right now. If the ankle is hurt they should have had more urgency to close this series out so he could rest. At least the defense looks good lol.

[usdane]

This series could have been 3-1 to Indy after this one.

It does not look promising for the Bulls for the next rounds.

[Andrew Bynum]

Pacers have played so well in Chicago, if they can steal game five the Bulls will really start to feel the pressure.

[NewJerSpur]

aight, since he's hurt i'd be willign to give you my entire team except our mascot for him

That mascott's doing work.

[romsey31]

aight, since he's hurt i'd be willign to give you my entire team except our mascot for him

shit id even throw in larry bird

[NewJerSpur]

This series could have been 3-1 to Indy after this one.

It does not look promising for the Bulls for the next rounds.

Unless they were to play the Hawks, aka the worst executing offense in the playoffs....Thibido would eat them alive defensively.

[Capt. Obvious]

This series could have been 3-1 to Indy after this one.

It does not look promising for the Bulls for the next rounds.
Hopefully the Bulls can close it out on Tuesday and get some rest for the next round.

As far as the next round(s) should the Bulls advance, you're absolutely right. The only team they'd have a shot at beating playing like this is Atlanta.

[hitmanyr2k]

This series could have been 3-1 to Indy after this one.

It does not look promising for the Bulls for the next rounds.

The Pacers are playing a tough brand of basketball. The Hawks and Magic are finesse teams. It'll feel like a completely different series.

[romsey31]

choke much indy?

[Capt. Obvious]

The Pacers are playing a tough brand of basketball. The Hawks and Magic are finesse teams. It'll feel like a completely different series.
I'd certainly hope so. But at this point I need to actually see the Bulls perform as opposed to simply hearing about what "will happen."

[Ace]

Lol 5-20 1-9

[NewJerSpur]

The suspense.....

[TampaDude]

Pacers playing like a team with their backs against the wall today. Bulls will likely close it out in Game 5.

[usdane]

I guess Indy really don't want to win if possible. They need some veteran players before next season.

[NewJerSpur]

Luol Bang, he just skied on Hibbert.

[hitmanyr2k]

You have to wonder why they don't have player movement like that all game long.

[PGDynasty24]

Why is it Derrick Rose has such bad shooting games,but never gets called out for it. This is 2nd straight game where he has had horrible night

[daspurs]

lol @ rose gettin handled

[Spur-Addict]

Huge Block by Collison

[NewJerSpur]

Why haven't more teams done this in the playoffs?! Instead of giving up the game, you have to TRAP and pressure the ball instead of letting guys just walk it up the court and go into their sets while milking the clock. Props to Thibs.

[daspurs]

Why is it Derrick Rose has such bad shooting games,but never gets called out for it. This is 2nd straight game where he has had horrible night

because everybody loves him

[hitmanyr2k]

Huge Block by Collison

He may have saved the game there. If the Bulls had scored the Pacers may have crumbled.

[TheMACHINE]

i wonder if Rose will run out of gas soon.

[4>0rings]

Bulls are utter trash when Rose doesn't get a parade to the FT lane.

[TampaDude]

Why is it Derrick Rose has such bad shooting games,but never gets called out for it. This is 2nd straight game where he has had horrible night

He gets the Kobe treatment, apparently...

[TheMACHINE]

its cuz Rose=Wade circa 2006

[usdane]

Got to get a score here

[TampaDude]

Indy just needs one more bucket to seal the deal...but can they get it?

50/50 that Chicago wins this.

[NewJerSpur]

That's why you don't just concede the game and go quietly into the night letting teams do whatever they want in the closing minutes even if you're down 8+.

[hitmanyr2k]

God damn. I'm just thinking about all of the chances the Bulls wasted this quarter with all of those stupid shots.

[Spur-Addict]

He may have saved the game there. If the Bulls had scored the Pacers may have crumbled.

Yeah, they would've folded for sure.

[4>0rings]

:lmao :lmao

[usdane]

He gets the Kobe treatment, apparently...

Kobe has not been getting THAT kind of treatment for a long time.

[TampaDude]

Indy is tanking.

[Spur-Addict]

Wow, choke job coming.

[NewJerSpur]

Boozer with the foul?

[TampaDude]

Kobe has not been getting THAT kind of treatment for a long time.

6-24 MVP ring a bell??? :lol

[Spur-Addict]

Korver for three?

[hitmanyr2k]

Holy shit. That was close to 5 seconds.

[davethedope]

has anybody else seen a team look this fucking
stupid and incompotent before down the stretch?

[NewJerSpur]

Indy is tanking.

They may fold, but they don't tank.....the effort is still there, the execution is poor.

[usdane]

wow - make a damn ft

[4>0rings]

Now I hope Indy loses cause they choke so hard.

[TampaDude]

They may fold, but they don't tank.....the effort is still there, the execution is poor.

That's what I meant...they are folding like a cheap lawnchair... :lol

[TampaDude]

Now I hope Indy loses cause they choke so hard.

^ this

Pacers deserve to lose this game...seriously...

[Capt. Obvious]
