Wade can't finish on transitions anymore. It is just a fact.

Wade what a horrendous placement for the pass.
$30 million to beat an 8 seed.

Excited you didn't get embarrassed by an early exit to an 8 seed due to injury? Get the poppers.

That's fair!I'm salty the Bulls lost Rondo, that's on me.

Why is RoLo not playing? At least the Bulls answered their most important question, who the fuck would be point guard when Rondo went out with his injury.
Rondo will be back by game 6, imo.

And now he doesn't play Lopez for the entire 4th quarter and Boston has had 4 possessions extended with offensive rebounds. Hoiberg is an idiot and probably the worst coach in the league. His deficiencies have been hidden by a Jimmy Butler being 4th or 5th in the league in WIN SHARES the last couple years and by Rondo predicting Boston's plays in games 1 and 2.
The bigger question is: Who stays?

Series looked over after IT's sister unfortunately died. Regardless of who they're playing, it's tough when something that bad happens to your best player. Even as Rondo went down I was still unsure they had the strength to win this, but they're showing some great resilience and yeah it's great.

OH MY FUCKING GOD IS THIS JAZZ TEAM FUCKING SERIOUS?!
Stevens' adjustments to only put 1 big on the floor fucked with Hoiberg's lineups. They need Mirotic or Portis to spread the floor but they can't play one of them with Lopez because it makes their defense terrible. Basically, once Amir stopped playing and we saw the Celtics go small, the rebounding issues went away.

I don't think anyone should be that surprised. IMO the first two games were about the Celtics not being themselves - not executing and not making shots.
They are a much better team than the Bulls, they're more well coached, and that hasn't changed.
Could the Bulls still win the series? Of course - it's best out of 3 and the Celtics can be inconsistent.
Also, Jimmy Butler has more FT attempts as the entire Celtics team. Celtics fought through some adversity and through the refs tonight. I'm impressed by their response.

LMAO. He's still playing but has been on an IV.
Good point. Unfortunately probably everybody stays because this organization is a joke now.

Harden has been playing through an ankle injury
We need to finish this series at game 5

Yeah I saw this. Pretty scary and he needs to rest it for sure. If we can close out in 5 the Spurs/Grizzlies series is going at least 6, probably 7.
Bulls are the only team with a worse coach than the Pacers.

This game was won because of Jaylen's single minute played.
Gerald Green, Jonas Jerebko and Terry Rozier contributed to a playoff win, give Brad COY.
Anyone who hates Stevens won't care that he started beating an 8 seed after a key player got hurt.

I've had food poisoning before. He must be at the end of its course to be able to even make it onto the court.
Jazz probably shouldn't have worn their white uniforms.

Welcome back Gobert.
This game should be good. I hope this series goes 7 games.

Lol who would've thought that Rondo was going to be an important piece come playoff time for the Bulls.
His face looks like he wants to barf
