Wow! I guess everybody is lining up a Pacers-Bulls Conference Finals now? Yeah, right!
Both Knicks and Heat need to come out with convincing Game 2 victories.

Spurs look a little shaky too, Popovich starting to pop skittles for his nerves.
San Antonios crowd gets up for Bonners shot like we do for Novaks

He couldn't wait to run a lot of guys out of town.

This Nate is cold blooded clutch
Meh. Seen him twice in the last few games either burning a T or turning it over trying to take a T. He's not a PG, he's a highlight reel.
Did you watch the game 5 of the Nets series when he was throwing up on the side because of the flu but had to play because Hinrich was out. The guy is playing really well and is a big part of the bulls success. They don't sniff the second round without him.
He's playing well. Never said different. But c'mon, you know you've got to take the rough with the smooth with Nate. Makes JR look like Mr.Consistency.
Watch The Gasmes

Busting Nate for his past is just tacky. Little big man is leading the Bulls with heart, courage and clutch shots when they need them most.
You cannot hold a mans past against him forever.
Not his past. His present. As I said, I love Nate. When he's on, there's no-one more fun to watch. But he's never done it consistently. But he's won them at least two games this post-season.
Not sure what's tacky about saying that.

Agreed. Wouldnt be surprised if this is the only win they get in the series.

To be fair, this Nate is completely harnessed compared to the Special Nate the Knicks had. Also, his name wasn't Steve Nash, so D'Antoni despised him

You know, they let him run wild because he was productive. Then, it became too late to reel him in. Always thought that with the proper restrains, he could be a very good player.

But he is a GO TO GUY and Becoming a STAR. It's amazing what George Karl said...is true..."A great team with no Star can produce a STAR or STARS"
Nate and Thibs refuse to let Derrick Rose Troll them.....Big up to Thibs getting through to Nate. He's been great for them all year.
. . .Nate . . .
Yup, I wish we still had Nate, or at least hadn't run him out of town. He was, yes, an iffy team player his first two years and, yes, he's somewhat of a defensive liability but . . . he was getting better and he was clearly a serviceable backup guard and we could have kept him for a few years for a reasonable salary. Kicking him out was dumb . . . but no dumber than a thousand other Knicks personel decisions.
He's no Rose but he's a key reason the Bulls are having a successful season.
I can't remember the last time I saw a team with as much heart and toughness as the Chicago Bulls. It was probably a college team when I was like 12 or 13. Would have to be. This Bulls squad is old school and so freaking rootable. I have hated this team more than any other sports team - it is a team that caused me nothing but basketball misery growing up. But I can't help but root for them now. Just out of pure love of basketball and of how the game should be played.

This is the true principle of being a FAN IMHO. I want the Bulls to beat the Heat because I don't want Lebron to win another chip ever again but I don't root for the Bulls in general. The way they play though represents everything a fan should want to see in a team and why they watch basketball. It really should have little to do with where you were born or raised although if it happens to parallel it fine.
Curry is MSGing the Spurs....He is in Bionic Voltron Mode!!!!!!!!

Damn. Curry has 22 pts in the 3rd. I'm not sure he broke a sweat. That dropped ball pickup 3pt thing was amazing. Pops has his head in his hands. It's like Iverson on crack.
