Still can't believe the Clips are out first round.
I am so happy.
I am so happy.
Haven't heard any updates on that front yet. Doubt he plays though, maybe later in the series if he gets some real practice time in.

Is this rose thing still an issue... He will come back next season strong. Everyone acts like these aren't facts
1. His physical style of play at the level he does it requires him to be 100% because if he is not he could (and would) likely injure.
2. He could (and would) likely mess up team chemistry
3. Bulls have been doing pretty damn good without him
4. Its not like Rose was the missing piece on a top contending bulls team. If anything the bulls took 2 steps back this season losing korver and asik when all they needed was a better starting SG or perhaps a big PG to play besides rose before
5. Bulls ownership is some cheap bastards so why should rose kill yourself for them if they haven't put him into position to win anyway

Or...there is a chance rose is no longer the same and doesn't want people to know yet.

LOL. Griffin trying to take the whole grizz team out was amusing.
That point about Gilbert Arenas in Rose's situation is true, heck Rose maybe already halfway into that road.. Last season he already injured a lot before the ACL tore, and he always rushing back.. that not end well, if he got that once more due to rushing, he will suffer like Arenas, similar player too.

I'm so conflicted. On one hand I want this misery to end, on the other hand I don't think too highly of the Nets and would love for the Bulls to knock them off. Can the game start already?

Blake should go back in time in his Kia Optima to warn his younger self about the dangers of being a pussy.
Maybe cut down on the horsie riding.

This is what I wanted to pick, but I can't help but feel like the Spurs will find a way to ground Curry better than the Nuggets did.
In the 3 regular season games against the spurs Curry did play he had one amazing game and 2 kinda crappy games.
And Lee prob won't be much of a factor in this series I would assume.

Fuck Indy.
We have a better chance against Memphis than people think. Russ never did shit against them anyways, so I think we'll try to ugly it up and rely on the individual scoring of KD and him finding open three-point shooters.
We're still definite underdogs, but we still have HCA and by far the best player, and that has to count for something.

It does count for something friend. That will push it to a 6-game series.

A win or two.
I wouldn't say that Durant is by far better than Gasol and the overall talent on the Grizzlies is higher than OKC.
Oh and they also have a real defense and their offense isn't just jacking up 3s

The godawful Bulls are getting taken to 7 by the hapless Nets, yet people think they're gonna win 2 games against Miami? Is there some injury I don't know about? I'll go with my usual pick of Heat in 5, but I expect 4 blowouts of a team that can't score, isn't that great defensively anymore, and isn't healthy. Way too much respect being given that mixed bag of scrubs.

I've been incredibly wrong with my picks, so whatever. PEACE.

...and that, kids, was the first time I sucked a dick for crack
With the way the Knicks played yesterday and the two games before that, I don't see them beating the Pacers. Though I imagine it'll be a drawn out series, though, ending in bitter Knick tears.
