2012 Playoffs: ("4") Celtics Vs. ("5") Hawks

[Bulls#1]

It will be a battle of the giants

[LebronJames06]

Celtics or Hawks... it doesnt matter. Heat are going to win it all this year

Please die away from this thread.

suck it, celtics fans. rondo sucks...Rondo should go back to doucheland or wherever he came from where they don't teach people how to hit jumpshots.

Still a better PG than Lin though.

Will T-mac finally get out of the first round?

With Rondo out for Game 2 maybe, just maybe.

[Sauru]

rondo is an idiot. thats all i gotta say

[jettdaking!]

they lost because Jesus didn't play.

[Bulls#1]

I think Rondo did not bump him intentionally I think he triped

[Solaris Phase Two]

@BS he tripped. Caught himself, then moved his chest and bumped him.

[Bulls#1]

Oh I see so that's why he was called for Technical and be ejected

[NovU]

I am gonna say he deserved it. He took his frustration out on the referee. He shouldn't have been anywhere near the referee if he knew any better. Too bad this might cost the Celtics a series.

Scal urging Pierce to stop being a pansy and face the pain.

Dumb move by Rondo. At first I thought it might have been more a case of the referee coming to a stop and Rondo just walking into him, but watching from about 0:36 onwards a few times, it does look like there was a deliberate bump there. Gotta have more sense than that.

[shadowgrin]

When did this shit become about the referees? They call techs in the damn Knicks/Heat series and the Nuggets series because someone says one word after they dunk (ONE WORD) now they're suspending players for brushing against them?
I got news for the NBA, this is the fucking PLAYOFFS. Guys are going to be a little emotional. They're not god-damned robots. And not a god-damn person pays to see those idiots referee. Back the FUCK OFF and let them play.

Doesn't quite sound like our EG. Good catch though.

[Sauru]

its true, not one pays to see the refs but without them the game would not be worth watching. wish people would stop saying such a stupid statement. rondo bumped the ref. he needs to be smarter than that.

[Patr1ck]

You can't cater to the players and loosen your restrictions because it's the playoffs.

[Mavs4Life]

Well... that was an odd ending.

[NovU]

Horford is back. Now if they can steal a game from Boston, first 7 game series... Excited!

[Lamrock]

Surprised how well Horford has played since returning from injury. Getting arguably their best player back really changes things. Having said that, I stand by Boston in 6.

[Andrew]

Definitely an unexpected return, as he seemed quite doubtful of his ability to return and admitted to not being at full strength. Hopefully he doesn't suffer another injury, we've seen too many as of late.

[Sauru]

they need horford to have any chance against the celtics. i can only imagine how good the hawks could be if they would stop being run like shit

[NovU]

Who choked and missed crucial free throws. I thought the game was gonna go to the OT.
