Kendrick Perkins got his ass pushed in by Marc Gasol.
Too much one on one by the Thunder..Brooks has to come up with a better game plan than letting Westbrook and KD go for theirs...
54 points and 23 boards from Gasol and Randolph. Perkins and Ibaka 'exposed'?
Pierce just got thrown out with 6 minutes left for basically being a dick

LOL. Pierce got away with head butting James Jones. He also balled up his fists when Wade bumped into him.
Please spare me. They gave him plenty of slack.
I was glad to see Pierce thrown out, this guy does alot of yapping and has no class on the court.

plenty of slack? please man. spare me. the game has changed. a decade ago there is absolutely NO WAY pierce gets tossed. now he gets thrown out for balling his fists and saying mean words at wade? gimme a break. if there's a fight, toss the dude. there wasn't a fight -- and on the second instance WADE ran into pierce and lowered the shoulder. its the panzy ass david stern white ppl are afraid of black ppl NBA that they have to eject players for playing hard and physical.

This is the playoffs. It's supposed to get physical. Look at what the Lakers did to Chris Paul
after he lit them up. They took turns tackling that lil man everytime he brought the ball down.
The refs decided to protect these preening primadonnas in South Beach. If those little bitches
want to cry so much about physical play & the bad words people throw at them, let'em go to
women's ice skating.
I didn't have a horse in this race, and there were a lot of BS calls against the C's.
Guess the C's are getting the same treatment as the Knicks in the last series.
It's too bad that Hinrich is hurt, but i like the Teague kid for ATL. He's very quick and should be able to stay with Rose. The Hawks are so versatile they don't rely on the PG as much cuz so many of their players can handle the ball including Joe Johnson. Should be a very good series. It's hard to judge this one but I like the Hawks chances in this series. They're so athletic all over the court it should give the Bulls D some problems.
I don't get this split screen view of TNT online. It shows every view but a normal one. Dizzying.

They ticked me off so bad the other night flipping to watch one game that was almost finished and in a time out with really no chance for the losers to come back instead of watching the game that was scheduled and highly competitive.
Hawks up by 11 with 2 minutes to go in the 4th. Did not see this coming
crawford is so clutch. always thought he never got enough props for being such a good end of game big shot guy. he's the classic "no no no no OOOOO YES!" shooter.
what were the odds going into the playoffs that the hawks and grizz would be up 1-0 in the conference semis? 1000 to 1?

I did Bulls are overrated IMO. Not that ATL is all that great either, but if you have a team that has guys that can get their own shots it can overcome the pressure D the Bulls play. They have skilled players on ATL and when they get hot they can score against anyone. They're athletic and unpredictable cuz they don't really run a very technical offense. The Hawks kind of go ISO a lot but when they do actually move the ball it makes they tough.
The Bulls on the other hand are totally reliant on Rose going off. The other guys aren't really that dependable and don't really create as much as Rose. OH and just as i'm typing this Rose turns his ankle! Hope it's not too serious.

Crawford takes alot of bad shots. That shot he took was a bad shot. This time it went in. His other clutch shot was a 3 that went in off the backboard. But he has made some clutch shots in his career, thats true.
If Crawford wasn't so afraid of the paint, he'd be an amazing player. He has all that handle, he can shake you out of your shoes, but all he wants to do is shoot an off balance 3.

Half of that bulls team can handle the rock. U can't just pressure the PG and think you've done your job, Joe Johnson can handle it, Marvin williams too. Plus their whole starting 5 can hit a 20 footer. its hard to double and leave someone open.
Joe Johnson went off tonight. He looked like their star player tonight. He doesn't look that way every night though.
Hawks need to make some trades in the off season. They have too many forwards. If I were them I'd see what I could get for Josh Howard. He should really be a low post player but he wants to shoot jumpers so badly.

I am not sure I would call them overrated but they did push the envelope quite nicely in the regular season. Still a young team that relies on Rose to score too much IMHO. Well coached defensively maybe they should force Thibs to hire an offensive assistant coach
