His jumper looked like Tony Allen's in Game 4. You're probably right though about tonight.

Hinrich actually has done his job this series. Aaron Brooks has been the one who has been a massive disappointment.

It's not that he's playing bad, its that Cleveland will hide Irving on Hinrich on defense. The Bulls need to exploit that with a guy that can score, like Tony Snell. Hinrich is not going to make Kyrie Irving pay for being hurt, Tony Snell will. Look for Dunleavy to run a lot of floppy early in the game to get Irving scrambling. Dunleavy has to hit shots though.

Now is the time to strike if you're the Bulls. They should have won Game 4. Definitely need to win this one.

The bulls are getting what they need out of rose and butler. They need some role players to step up. Its pathetic, but the cavs bench has been the difference in the series.

Do the Rockets have any hope to win tonight?

I say no. Harden really blew up any argument he was the real mvp this season with the rockets just completely laying an egg.

How many more years you guys think we have to put up with peak lebron? 2? 3? So fucking sick of him...

It'll be Lebron's world until Anthony Davis takes it from him.

So hes going to be beasting when hes 35 still? I dont buy that. Just hope hes done being this road block for everyone in the east after a few more years.

I dunno. Kobe and Michael both beasted through age 34.

If LBJ isn't the best player on the planet until Anthony Davis takes the title, who do you think will hold that crown in the interim?

can't believe they kicked out taj gibson there, but he sucks anyway

belladonna instigated it but taj is stupid for playing into it.

Lebron still gets by primarily on being a bully though. Mj and kobe had more finesse which ages better. He definitely wasnt as good this year as a few years ago. I'm just tired of the whatever team lebron is on goes to the finals shit in the east.

Well, the Bulls window probably closes after this season. I don't really believe in Atlanta as a long-term presence, and Toronto seems to be a facade. Maybe there's something to Washington, but if not, Cleveland seems primed to run the conference for a few seasons.

See, this is what drives me nuts about this Bulls team. They have the personnel to get back into any game at any time, but they melt down and jack bad shots/commit bad fouls for 2-3 minutes when they get put on the brink before settling down and start playing razor sharp basketball again. It's like they insist on bottoming out before they regroup and go on an 18-5 run like this.

poor coaching on the offensive side, and probably why thibs is gone if they can't get past cleveland.

Yeah I for one am ready for a fresh coaching perspective.

The kid with the half jordan half lebron jersey needs to be euthanized.

hell of a game by lebron. this series still has seven games written all over it though.
