Cavs - Bulls, Game 5 - Closeout time

[Ziner]

Damn, hope this is a new record.

From windy's twitter

Cavs 121, Bulls 98 and Cavs take 3-1 series lead. Bulls didn't play terrible but Cavs looked like a No. 1 seed again.

Just had to have something

Can't wait for Eastside to get all pissy

Mother of God

There aren't enough facepalms in the Internet for that video ey.

[Larvell Blanks]

And people thought you were a dick e0y for starting the game 4 thread a few days early? They may have to reconsider after viewing THAT!

The Austin Carr cameo just confirms it as a steaming pile.

Rose injured his ankle when he stepped on Shaquille O'Neal's foot in the beginning of the third quarter on Sunday.

if rose doesn't play, i would be very surprised.

[Ziner]

Moondog better step up his game tonight

[British_Pharaoh]

Meh! I could do that I just don't wanna

the epitome of fail right there.

If people really wanted to do a new cavs anthem, just throw it at Bone Thugs and/or Kid Cudi. I'm sure they'd be more than down for doing something quick and easy. Or hell, I'm sure Jay-Z may even be down for it, he owes lebron a favor for appearing in his video.

Sharon Reed was looking reallllly good today. I only noticed that because they had Tanchack, the goof wather guy on Action 19, doing some lame NBA skills type stunt against a random fan. The only thing I can think of that is wors then that video eye just posted is any newscast that looks for the "average joe's" take on any subject. Bonus bad if it is being filmed at a bar.

It was train wreck bad, but like a train wreck kept my attention. Through the random zombie homeless guy that had to get on TV claiming the "average joe" cheated, to Shaon's luscious, fully packed, brown sugar bosom.

Oh, on the game... Get Jamison and Shaq involved early, game.

[FUDU]

Sweep the leg tonight LeBron.

He's dropping 50 on these fucks, after all he has a thing for game 5's.

Gaem is on ESPN America here so I won't be flooding the game threads as much as I usually do

[FUDU]

Love the early energy.

what is that channel like?

I'm actually envious of you guys for having it, as I've used streams of it to view a few out of market NFL games via the web. It seems like they cut right through the crap that ESPN and others show.

[FUDU]

It was understood I was talking about 50 assists right?

Yeah, there's not even any Miracle Whip commercials.

[British_Pharaoh]

Great quarter from AJ

Shaq just looking clumsy out there

It's great once the NHL playoffs are over
because then there's loads of baseball.

We get PTI and around the horn as well as things like E:60 and 30 on 30 so it really is just like having ESPN.
The channel used to be NASN a couple of years ago and would only show college hoops and college football

so it's great that now I get to watch NBA basketball on TV instead of sitting in front of a monitor every time

[British_Pharaoh]

No prizes for guessing what Shaq mouthed just there

[peeker643]

The Old, Big Man still surprises me with his passing ability. Great find hitting AV with the behind-the-back bounce pass in the lane. Of course, having no comprehension of the moment, AV blew the lay up.

[British_Pharaoh]

I LOOOOOOOOOVE Moon

[motherscratcher]

There's a blond with huge...tracks of land...behind the Bull's bench. Just thought everyone should be made aware.

Seen

[motherscratcher]

Christ. It seems like they are calling fouls on Shaq for breathing on people too hard.

[peeker643]

Knockin' the rust of the big man tonight. Running through the rust is about it actually.

Jamison's getting into this playoff thingy.

[FUDU]

Am I the only person who remembers Marv Albert being a cross dressing freakazoid, sheesh how in the hell did that guy get the world to pretend that never happened.

[waborat]

Bulls' D has already started their summer vacation

[British_Pharaoh]

LeBron 2 points
bench 16
AJ 20

just thought the ESPN staff should know, because I'm sick of the now invalid argument that LeBron still has no help in Cleveland.

We can win against a lot of teams without LeBron playing well or even without LeBron at all
but we got the best player in the world so why not use him :D

if Mo or Jamison were on the Lakers they would be revered as excellent compliments to Kobe

[waborat]

He's the Charlie Sheen of broadcasters

[waborat]

Redz hi-energy tonight

[peeker643]

It's called a tearful apology.

It works quite well if you're not too much of an asshole *cough..roger clemens..cough* to break it out.

[British_Pharaoh]

Bit annoyed we're shooting 61% in a half and only up by 7
but then again LeBron is only on 3 points and the Bulls have attempted about 6 more field goals

IMO it is b/c our guys are caught up in the fun of the game, seriously they look like they are having a blast tonight, regardless of any lapses on D. Almost as if Roker is trusting them to do things the way the players want tonight.

Missing 7 FTs doesn't help.

[davemanddd]

did anyone hear uncle austin get caught up in the emotion of shaq flinging his arms around after getting fouled before andy gave him that "big bear" hug??? he had an fcc moment there when he said something along the lines of "the big fella is pissed". classic!!!

[British_Pharaoh]

Tonight hopefully will provide an opportunity for JJ to see 15 minutes or so with Shaq in a bit of foul trouble and the hint that this game could just become a blowout in the second half.

The only thing I'm angry about is the free throws.
Boston are a team who will know how to use this glaring weakness against us in round 2 and it's going to cost us a game or 2 later in this postseason

I got TNT's coverage

but I was lucky enough to get a glimpse of Unkie Austin on the camera

cheered me right up

[British_Pharaoh]

dumb foul

[waborat]

Won't be surprised to still see Lebron get 25+ pts

[Ziner]

Surprised? No.

Sure would prefer if he ends up at 10 and we win by 15.

[bookelly]

Bulls are lingering like a pesky fart.

[daddywags]

Bulls are the aggressors in this quarter and nobody is helping out on offense at all. If Lebron gets triple-teamed and Mo and Jamison keep missing open looks it'll be a long, disappointing, night.

[Orenthal]

Yeah, Shaq sucks. Why do you need a low post presence that can dominate his man one on one and demand doubles? Who needs a wide body capable of delivering intimidating playoff fouls, making drives into the lane much more hazardous?

Yeah, prolly better off without him...

[StewieG]

Why the hell are we even looking at this?

[daddywags]

That's it, LeBron, need to get Mo Williams more shots.

[waborat]

Cavs smellin blood...

Time to finally finish em off

[peeker643]

Just grind out the win and move on. Get it over with.

[daddywags]

It's almost like they don't want to win this game. First make sure LeBron doesn't have the ball and then make sure Mo Williams gets his shots.

Noah can't guard LeBron off the dribble, so why is he always passing the ball as soon as the guy switches onto him?
