The rockets are pathetic. The bulls and cavs are going at each other and they can't even bother to compete.

I'm a big NBA fan and even I have little desire to watch the Rockets/Clippers series.

It's really brutal. I kept flipping back to it last night for some unknown reason. With about 7:30 left in the 2nd, (almost an hour after tip) I hear them talking about how them intentionally fouling Jordan so early could backfire. Did that actually happen? Were they really intentionally fouling a guy less than halfway through the second quarter???

I keep going back and forth with my opinion on the Hacka strategy.

I don't. I have zero problem with it. Guys need to hit their FTs. And if a coach is so stupid as to employ it early in the 2nd quarter, well so be it, he won't be around long, anyway. I mean it's ugly and not fun to watch, but...just like you can't play your great shooter down the stretch because he can't play a lick of defense, maybe you can't play your big who can't make half his FTs down the stretch. It's a legitimate strategy IMO.

True. He did very nearly make half of his shots. Would have been the first time this series.

Shooting has been a struggle for everyone in the series I feel like. Combination of injuries, fatigue, good defense, and bad shooting.

That is the side I usually end up on but I wonder if there is a way to make it a bit more watchable? Maybe you have to wait until the offense has crossed half court? Anything to take some time off the clock.

Oh, for sure. LeBron has been mostly...bad for long stretches. Obviously Butler and co. get some credit for that, but yeah it's been a tough go of it for both teams.

You know I really just wish the bulls had kyle lowry or jeff teague at this point. Series would probably be 3-0 bulls.
