Never was happy when Bosh added 3 pointers to his game but was excited when he made it today.
New profound respect for Italian guy Belinari or whatever. He plays hard and shoots good.

At some point, Chalmers is going to snap.
The Heat outplayed the Bulls down the stretch, no surprise given the Heat's talent and the Bulls' present lack of depth. There were some suspect calls - Bosh drew a very soft loose ball foul on Noah for a couple of free throws, Belinelli should have had a four point play opportunity to name a couple - but the Bulls lost because they had no legs to speak of in the fourth, not because of the officiating, so I'm not going to lay the blame at the feet of the referees. At least they kept it fairly and gave it their all. Like I said before, Miami's likely winning four straight to advance in five, but I hope the Bulls can at least make them earn it in the remaining games.
Good game to watch even if my favourite team lost. Good Playoff basketball.

It seems that Bulls are living that thug life. They have realized that
only playing basketball won't cut it. And don't worry about that Rio scene, it's been always like that.

I wasn't making random statements. I'm no Heat fan to do something like that.
If the Heat win this series they are an amazing team that can willfully dominate teams whose key players are injured.
Last year they dominated a bunch of old people during the ECF. This year they can dominate a team that's playing on one leg.
Hooray Heat dynasty!

This. It's not our fault that we are facing a team severed with injuries, so you just can't(actually you can but you shouldn't) keep saying that. And I have a feeling that
this will be the main thing you people will be saying after the Championships. But "dominating" is something we have done before, so we don't have to prove ourselves to anyone.

Yes dominating, like how the Heat did to the Mavs...

As for Nazr's shove, it's really important for the Heat players to keep their head cool and not get involved in any suspension/injury because even one small scuffle could change entire complexion of the series. In that regard, I think LeBron is handling things pretty well so far in this series. But Wade doesn't seem to be at 100% with lingering knee issues. That's gonna be a huge huge downside for the rest of playoffs.

Yup. It wasn't a pretty sight at all. I am thinking Wade or LeBron will try to be the mediator but Chalmers being a big boy now... am afraid that he won't wanna hear another lecture from two homies who treated him just as bad before. It certainly is a concern because there always was strong emphasis even on locker room chemistry when they assembled this team.

I have to agree with you. The calls favored the Heat just little bit more if I had to choose the side. But I'd say officiating was just bad in general. Like Battier's last foul actually was a charge and not a blocking foul.
Edit: Isn't it a bad sign anyways for referee's name to be widely known among fans? Yet Joe Crawford is everywhere in big games making same shitty calls after another.

It's more like whining. And losing to Mavs was the best thing that ever happened. So, kudos for that. And we did lose in game 7, so nobody dominated that series. And apart from that one, give me another example of the so called "choking" or Heat not dominating.

Remember the last years man? DWade struggled at the start but owned it in the finals. So, maybe that will happen this year as well, hopefully.

Game 7? Did that happen?
Sun May 12, 2013 1:28 pm
No, it didn't. My mistake. Fuck it. I got confused.

Oh boy, for how long will this haunt me.

How can stating facts be whining? If anything it's fact haters like you that are whining for you don't want facts to be stated, like what you are doing right now.
lmao on losing game 7 so nobody dominated the series logic. Based on your logic the Celtics dominated the Heat in the ECF last year for reaching game 7 even though they lost. Dominated because the Celtics are old, they didn't have Avery Bradley, and were down 2-0 and yet they managed to make it to a game 7.
You just keep digging a hole for the Heat. Thanks.

Joey Crawford was involved, so it was to be expected I suppose.

So, again rumors regarding Rose return. But I guess we know better than that.

I don't believe that any team dominates and then reaches game 7. What is this "old" logic? Kobe is old but that doesn't stop him now, does it?

That's why he's The G.O.A.T. Despite being old he's still better than the rest of the league.
Mon May 13, 2013 8:20 pm
Oh my. A debate could be set on Jordan VS LeBron. But you think Kobe is better than Jordan.

The Bulls are pretty bad for some reason tonight. Just can't hit a shot. End of 3rd quarter, and they only scored 42 points. Nate also having an ugly night 0-12 or something.
Tue May 14, 2013 11:12 am
Half a quarter away from another ugly loss. Shooting 27% from the field isn't going to get the job done; unfortunately, heart and hustle doesn't mean much when the team you're fielding lacks a dependable scoring punch.
Tue May 14, 2013 11:44 am
23 point loss.
