NBA 2012-2013

So, this Bulls team seems to have a formula for what it takes to beat the Heat...

They either woke up a sleeping giant or exposed the Heat. The Bulls won with hustle and grit and the heat just showed up and expected to win. Lebron had a certain "deer in the headlights" look after they lost, so I am leaning towards being exposed. However, I wouldn't be surprised if he goes off for 50 Wednesday night and the Heat win by 30. It will take a lot from Lebron for me to ever think of him in the same context as Jordan and Kobe; maybe when he grows up. Go Bulls!

As for Rose, he needs to do what fits him best. Ask RG III about being cleared to play. (and aren't ALL suits fancy?  )

[Taterbug]

I pretty much wrote the Bulls off after Rose went down and now without Loul.  I never in a million years would of thought the Bulls could go in there and steal one with this crew. Give a lot of credit to coach.  GO BULLS !!!!

Seven words:

I hate the Spurs

SUCK IT, MIAMI!

[FiddleCastro]

I'd LOVE to see a Spurs/Bulls finals.

Sad Brooklyn got knocked out, but my favorite team is still the Spurs and I'll continue to watch in disbelief as a group of 9000 year old men out play teams multiple millenia younger  GO SPURS GO!

Aww Miami handed Chicago their worst loss in franchise playoff history . They could've had Derrick Rose AND MJ tonight and still would've lost . The Heat are gonna finish this thing strong. Bulls might get one more game.

Let me guess.  You're a Ravens fan as well?

No sir more of a Titans fan although i have cheered for the ravens several times in support of their roster of former Miami Hurricanes.

Mahgeetah34 your thoughts on the Hea Bulls game one? I just hope anyone wins but the Heat. Preferably Memphis.

Pssch you don't have a cat in this relay. Miami just had too long of a layoff in-between rounds. That's what happens when you open the playoffs 4-0.

[Ruckus]

Preferably Memphis.

I see fredo.  Why isn't he hyping the Warriors?

[parkervb]

Warriors have been a GREAT story, but their only chance of winning this series is to take Game 5 in SA and game 6 in Oakland, because they will not win a Game 7 on the road.

I am really hoping for a Spurs-Heat Finals.

[FiddleCastro]

Thing I didn't expect: Spurs blowing out the Grizzlies in any game.

So, Heat drop Game 1 like normal here or do they win game 1?  I think LBJ has been holding a little something back for the ECF and Finals.  I see him with a triple double and a 40 pt game in this series (not in same game).

Without over analyzing this, the Pacers match up well against the Heat but I think the Game 1 swoons are over.  I like the Heat -8.0 at 92-81.  If Hibbert struggles down low, the Pacers will have trouble scoring in the half court and the Heat will make enough transition buckets to offset the vaunted Pacers half court D.

More dumb luck for Cleveland sports teams.  The Cavs defied the odds to win the draft lottery last night in a draft where I honestly don't see any game changers.  Noel is obviously the popular choice, but he's out until at least December...  that is if he doesn't use the Derrick Rose rehab plan.

And then you have the uncertainty of just what kind of a player Noel will be after his rehab???

I have no idea who the Cavs will pick but I wouldn't object to trading it away if they can get the right package in return...

Halfway there for my prediction.  40 pt game coming.

I like your predictions sir. Let's hope that 40 point game comes with a Miami win

Wow good call parker. Last week messed around and got a triple double...

Crazy that graphic showed Rondo with 10 post season triple doubles...
