Lol. Curry taking L's.

Gotta finish them off in regulation.

I say GS goes down in five. Too bad. They deserved to win but . . .
NumberTwoPencil @ 5/7/2013 1:09 AM
...in regulation...

Yup, GS has serious problems closing out games.

NumberTwoPencil @ 5/7/2013 1:11 AM
Curry, however, damn. Curry or Anthony? Curry. Curry or Iverson? Curry. He missed a few shots and seemed tired toward the end but Curry was sick in that game. Official NBA tweet says it all "Curry has crossed into the Twilight Zone."
yellowboy90 @ 5/7/2013 1:18 AM
should Curry passed at the end of regulation? I just caught the highlights looked like he had an open guy to his right in plain view. I stopped watching after the 3rd then picked up late in 2ot.
NumberTwoPencil @ 5/7/2013 1:20 AM
Well, Thompson and Green fouled out. Still, GS shouldn't have let this go to OT.
NumberTwoPencil @ 5/7/2013 1:23 AM
I keep thinking Curry will hit a wall but . . . it's hard to imagine him playing a better game, even with a few missed shots and some turnovers, than he had tonight. Curry didn't lose the game, I'd say Jackson lost the game by not managing the end of regulation a little tighter.

Both Knicks and Heat need to come out with convincing Game 2 victories.


bulls playing with a ton of heart and great team ball, but they are not beating miami...

Rose's decision to rest and relax during the playoffs looking even more lame. Absolutely pathetic.

Chicago isn't afraid of Miami because the players respect and fear Thibs( AND HE PREACHES DEFENSE) AND THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS Chicago owner/management is behind him 100%. This is why teams buy into coaches,
But when the ownership doesn't back the coach 100%, the players run the coach eventually out of town.

Live by the Nate, die by the Nate.

MDA could not wait to get him out, neither could Boston, OKC, or GSW!!!!!!!

What other conspiracy you guys thinking? NBA out to get teams?

You really think they want Indy vs. Miami? or prefer New York for ratings?

I absolutely despise that.. I mean the bulls are a special bunch IMO, and with rose, I think they are a top 4 team in the NBA... the fact that he doesn't want to get out there because he is not 100%, but 90% is ridiculous!!!!!

This could prove to be catastrophic when he and Bulls fans look back at this.

Rose is 100%. He was cleared in early March and practices with the team. His refusal to play is purely mental. It's disgusting and unprofessional. I know the Bulls don't want to pay his salary so don't mind him sitting. However, if Rose really wanted to play then he'd be playing.

I think the Knicks and Heat will prevail in 6 to 7 games. The better team will win each series.

well i was giving rose the benefit of the doubt since he said he was 90% from what I heard.. either way, I am just confused and somewhat frustrated as a fan he is not out there!

His most recent quote is that he is not playing because he lacks muscle memory in relation to in game situations and actions. The only way to fix that is to play in actual games. Sitting on a bench will not get Rose to the point where playing at the level he is accustomed to comes naturally. Rose will have to play and have some bad or so so performances but ultimately get back to where he was. Look at how much Shump has improved the last few months simply by playing. Look at how well Rubio played the last month or two of the season.

AnubisADL @ 5/7/2013 12:23 PM
If he comes back and plays like Shumpert did earlier this year then he might as well sit out until next year.

Well, he is better than Shumpert so I'd expect he'd be able to contribute. Also, he has more time to recover and practice unlike Shumpert. He should be paying like 15 minutes a game just to give Nate and Butler some rest. They are gonna break down eventually. The amount of minutes they are playing is insane.
