No Love, No Lackin - Bulls vs Cavs Semi-ECFs Thread

[Dr. Narcisse]

butler has been playing like this all season, and into the playoffs. you think him playing elite defense and heavy minutes is something new once the bulls faced the cavs???

Dude was saying he was exhausted at the half. Idk. I see him getting a Luol Deng esque 15/16 as the series continues.

If he's getting 20+ I'll be wrong. And also the Bulls will have won the series in due time.

We'll see.

so what position does lebron play in this scenario????? C

I forgot about LeBron

Im tired as fukk rn

its unrealistic to expect beatdowns in the playoffs regularly. teams make adjustments in these 7 game series. and you don't get 50+ point victories out of desperation. you get them because one team was simply that much more superior than the other.

beating a team how the bulls beat the bucks in game 6 the other day is a once in a lifetime type thing.

Okay I obviously don't think they would have 40 or 50 point wins for 4 games str8,or even at all, but it definitely shouldn't have went 6 games...and I think they won in game six using that mentality "like we shouldn't even be in this game"...and simply out classed the opponent...like I said it was a good win...but after the frustration of losing games they shouldn't have

Would it be fair to say if u didn't have gasol and had boozer tonight that u guys would have found a way to lose?

fair to say along with bad officiating

Shumpert was the surprise for me, I have never trusted his 3s and he was basically the Cavs only spacing.,If he can come close to replicating tonight offensively I would be shocked

Sadly I agree...I was a little shocked by his offensive focus...but he seemed comfortable like it might stick

Rose needs to look for his teammates more.

He put up too many shots with Gasol/Butler killing it too.

 

[Liquid]

Rose mid-range game and Rose/Pau pnr was on point

You can tell how much Pau wants this. He learned to do what it takes on those laker teams.

It's my opinion nikka...what else would I say

The bucks are a good young team

 

[Edub]

The bucks are a good young team

They're a good young team...but they lost they're no.1 guy. Jason Kidd pushed them where they got...the Bulls playing to there full potential should shyt on the bucks easy...as we saw

 

[Microfracture]

Rough game. Cavs left Pau open on too many pick & pops and switches. Bulls shot the lights out and Lebron didn't have a good game despite the numbers.

On to game 2

It's game 1. Let's try to act like grown men and keep the overreactions to a minimum.
