2013-2014 NBA Thread - IND @ WAS and OKC @ LAC on ESPN

[Ricky D]

The games have been too late for you, but don't think Hou/Por has been been as competitive as OKC/Grizz...so does that means you haven't watched any of that series

?

I watched almost 2 full games but can barely stay awake when watching them. OKC v MEM keeps me on the edge. HOU v POR is kind of one sided now IMO. I guess I should've used another word to replace "competitve" considering all the games have been close, Ill just say OKC v MEM has been more entertaining for me

Thing is they haven't been average when they've had all their pieces. Rose there, they finish 1st in the East go to the conference finals once and 1st in the East again, but then Rose tears his ACL the 2nd year. When you take all the offensive threats off the team, damn right they're going to look average on that side of the ball. They are consistently excellent on defense though no matter who is out there. I've already put the efficiency rankings in here earlier; they've been above average as a team when the guys are there.

That might be so, but I don't think that contradicts my point about this season.

I'm also of the opinion that they were playoff frauds even with Rose there, but maybe I'm just bitter they let Miami waltz into the finals when they were built up to be competitive against them.

JumpmanPro had to go too far.

You guys were supposed to be the chosen ones....  And you let the LeBron-hating world down.  

Seriously though, I was totally in on the Bulls/Thibs hype before that, after they got steamrolled I definitely had to question it.

How did they let Miami waltz into the finals when they lost the 4 games by an average of 8pts?

They didn't pass the eye test as a contender either.

Winnable games. It's just that DROSE was on lockdown by Bron.

If DROSE showed up CHI wins.

Listening to the radio a few days ago and was reminded that the Bulls traded Aldridge for Tyrus Thomas.

Personal opinion. Games of 120-122 are more entertaining to me than > 85 points

He's the only one I don't like. I like the rest of the team. They're the Pacific northwest version of us

 

[antidope]

Thats a good topic, lets rank the 1st round series in terms of entertainment

Hou/Por
GSW/LAC
OKC/Mem
SAS/Dal
ATL/Ind
WAS/CHI
BKN/TOR




























MIA/CHA

So far today, I've read that Oprah and Dr. Dre are now interested in buying the Clippers. Going to be a real bidding war for the team, if the NBA is able to force Sterling to sell.

Oh, and congrats to Jamal Crawford for his second 6th man of the year award.

Exactly.  The limitations of their offense got exposed.

***& got the pick that turned into d rose

 

[Peep Game]

Not sure how I feel about KD's new nickname being The Decoy. It's much better than The Servant though.

 

[rook]

Bulls wouldn't be in this situation if Thibs hadnt had Rose still in the game, late in a blowout 2 years ago. Stupid
