Jordan Battled the Flu, had a fever, and was physically almost unable to stand at the end of it. Had 38 points and led the Bulls to victoy during that

LeBron had the sniffles, and looked like a bitch in game 1.

When activating Z is the cure to all your woes, then your woes are incurable.

It's almost poetic. The TV guys are suggesting that Z is "needed" to negate Chicago's inside advantage...

It's poetic, because LBJ left CLE because the pieces around him weren't good enough. Now he "needs" one of those same pieces... Hmmm.

Wrong, the TV guys are morons.

Z won't get more than 12 minutes. PERIOD.

Anyone hear Rizzo show in the past 3-4 days, Windwhore was on and he/they mentioned LxCuse and his pre-game condition of nerves, that he has suffered from his entire career, in big games mostly the way they put it.

I know such a thing exists, many times someone needs to use a rest room, but I'm not sure IIRC hearing much or anything of this before about LxCuse. Sounded like a preemptive excuse in case things didn't go well to start the series.

Wonder if they're down late in game 2 if we see some elbow flare ups.

by **StewieG** » Wed May 18, 2011 7:54 pm

I would give so much to see LBJ take himself out of the game tonight with a nasty case of the sniffles.

Though Webber was just blabbering something about Z and tip ins...

Holy shit. Even with Noah on the court near him, Joel Anthony is the undisputed captain of the NBA All Uglier than Hell team.

by **e0y2e3** » Wed May 18, 2011 9:59 pm

If LBJ would take off his headband him and Anthony would have enough forehead to cover the entire painted area between them.

by **peeker643** » Wed May 18, 2011 10:01 pm

Noah can run.

Wow.

Love how LeShithead strategically wears the headband to help hide that receding hairline and diminish the shock and awe of his fivehead.

When he gets it knocked off, he rushes to replace it. Such an insecure tool.

by **peeker643** » Wed May 18, 2011 10:04 pm

Miami front court just getting steam rolled.

Is Spo that desperate that he needs to mix and match Howard, Haslem and Magloire?

It reeks of desperation to me.

Then I look down the bench and it reeks of no other options.

by **e0y2e3** » Wed May 18, 2011 10:05 pm

Feels like a blowout is brewing, not gonna lie. Bulls started out completely unable to function in the half court set and slowly took complete control here.

by **e0y2e3** » Wed May 18, 2011 10:06 pm

Funny thing is Miami was held to 15 points before Chicago's bench got in the game and the Chicago bench is actually a better interior defensive unit.

LBJ dunk ended a string of nine scoreless for Miami.

It's really just because LeBron's nose is running and his head hurts.

Love the Deng 3/4 court heave. :lmfao:

BTW, what a great interview Deng is. Fucking guy is locked in pretty tight and is one of the brighter guys I've heard in front of the camera.

by **swerb** » Wed May 18, 2011 10:11 pm

Asik looks eerily like Judge Reinhold's character in Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

by **peeker643** » Wed May 18, 2011 10:12 pm

Here we go with the horseshit whistles.

Fucking officials can blow me if that dive on the floor for a loose ball is a foul.

Mike Miller better be funny or something. Maybe that's his contribution on long flights.

Say what you want about Dukies, but they are always smart cats.

by **e0y2e3** » Wed May 18, 2011 10:29 pm

It really is hard for me to imagine the fact that LBJ hedged by leaking his illness.

Really, really unreal.

Needless to say, this won't be his flu game.

by **e0y2e3** » Wed May 18, 2011 10:29 pm

and Old, how dare you call this place dead!

I've been talking to myself and fighting with Madre for months!

by **e0y2e3** » Wed May 18, 2011 10:35 pm

SebastianPruiti SebastianPruiti
That's why the need to post James up more...wide open three point look out of it...why have they only ran it twice?

Priuti is the NBA Playbook guy and is writing for every site out there right now, spends all day breaking down film and posting it for us non-Synergy peeps.

No matter how much film study he does he'll never understand that LBJ just doesn't like going into the post...

by **furls** » Wed May 18, 2011 11:16 pm

Rose just cannot buy a basket (at any range) right now. Bulls gotta like where they are right now given the way the ball is falling for Rose.

by **e0y2e3** » Wed May 18, 2011 11:33 pm

What did I say earlier about the Heat being fine if they have to cut Bosh and keep Udonis.

by **peeker643** » Wed May 18, 2011 11:41 pm

Rose is getting gassed.

Leaving two free throws on the front of the rim is a good indication.

And Haslem brings toughness and movement without the ball. If you cut Wade and LBJ will find you.

Still not sure what Bosh brings on a consistent basis.

by **furls** » Wed May 18, 2011 11:48 pm

Bosh is soft. A team that will never be able to afford a real center cannot afford a soft 4.

by **furls** » Wed May 18, 2011 11:50 pm

Looks like the lack of depth is really starting to affect the Heat. James and Wade have been quiet lately, I bet they get going coming out of this timeout. I hope not, but I bet Spol gets the Heat back into their offense and we see more out of James and Wade.

by **Kingpin74** » Wed May 18, 2011 11:56 pm

Reggie Miller is in the discussion for worst announcers in sports.

by **e0y2e3** » Wed May 18, 2011 11:57 pm

He is unbearable.

I wish him and Marc Jackson would fight to the death and neither survive.

by **Kingpin74** » Thu May 19, 2011 12:04 am

Really not sure why they have to force it with the 3 man booth. Marv and Kerr or Marv and Fratello are infinitely better.

by **furls** » Thu May 19, 2011 12:07 am

Why is kyle korver still on the court?

He is a one trick pony and he isn't making them.

by **e0y2e3** » Thu May 19, 2011 12:07 am

Bulls left so many points out there tonight. Gross.

by **Kingpin74** » Thu May 19, 2011 12:07 am

The Bulls are fucking finished, I'm not watching this series anymore.

by **daddywags** » Thu May 19, 2011 12:09 am

What's up with Carlos Boozer? I thought he was a key free agent signing for the Bulls and now he sits pretty much the whole second half of the second game of the ECF? Did I miss an injury or something?

by **hermanfontenot** » Thu May 19, 2011 12:10 am

Kingpin74 wrote:The Bulls are fucking finished

No, they're not. All they have to do is win one game in Miami. Quitting bitch won't hit his bullshit shots the entire series.

He's been TERRIBLE. Made Troy Murphy look like an All-Star. Gibson on the other hand has been great.

by **e0y2e3** » Thu May 19, 2011 12:13 am

Just like game 1 won't happen again, nor will this:

Chicago Bulls: 34% FG - 15% 3PT - 62% FT. Bulls with 29 points in second half.

by **e0y2e3** » Thu May 19, 2011 12:15 am

My gawd, 81 possessions for Miami and 83 for Chicago. That is the same pace two teams would play at in quicksand.

by **Cerebral_DownTime** » Thu May 19, 2011 12:19 am

Lebron throws up the most bullshit shots and they go down.

And he's got the sniffles, so it must be tough for him to gut it out.

He is just utterly detestable. I've never disliked an athlete nearly as much.

SOB has me rooting for the Bulls- the Bulls! The team that helped ruin my sports childhood. I used to make like a priest that saw Damien whenever I watched the Cavaliers playing the Bulls, now I'm living and dying on every Chicago play like I'm a lifelong fan.

It was a bit of tongue-in-cheek, and, no, I haven't watched the Bulls much in the playoffs. So Chicago wasted how much money on this guy?

^(Uh, what happened to the post of Kingpins that should have been where ^ was pointing too??? Don't delete your heat of the moment posts people.)

Have you seen Dallas lately? They got this Dirk guy who hits shots over 7 footers, 6'10" athletic freaks with insane 'span (Ibaka), and just about any other physical defender? They also have a savvy PG, and a pretty deep team that has plenty of playoff expierence.

Its not quite a parting of the seas.

Nothing sucks worse than when our teams blow so bad we have to root for teams we don't care about or like vs teams/players we loathe. The last Super Bowl was like that, I hate Green Bay..... but their opponent was Pittsburgh.

Fuck Lebron, he's a cunt.
