09 playoffs thread

i hesitate to even mention this cause from his demeanor and on court actions he appears to be simply a solid with it young man playing his position as well as any rookie can be expected - its probably just a case of being understandably somewhat overwhelmed by the newness of the spotlight but derrick rose is possibly the worst interview ive ever seen - hes seems retarded

i was saying that after game 1. he seems almost somber.

saturday night is going to be a fuckshow. i am going to have about 50 more heart attacks.

d rose doesn't strike me as being the sharpest knife in the drawer, to put it kindly.
he played like total shit after the 1st half.

except for the rondo blk obv

i figured it out. c's sold their soul to the devil aka kevin maurice garnett to get themselves outta the cellar and win another title.

Yeah that Rose interview was just squirmingly uncomfortable to watch.

BTW I refuse to believe that Rose is 6'3. That's like Kevin Love being 6'10 or whatever. I'm not even sure Rose is taller than Rondo.

you'll love this then

het finally unleashed beasley and he threw down 22-15 in 36mis - haslem should get in foul trouble more often

just got to hear that steve holman clip, that was great. dude deserves some kind of commendation for doing over 1600 consecutive hawks games.

after half an hour of clicking when the tix went on sale yesterday, i managed to get a seat for today's bos-chi grand finale. i'm stoked ... and super-nervous!!

oh wow way to go. i didn't know you were in MA.

Okay I still don't know if Rose is 6'3, but damn is he an athlete. That Scal block was a beauty.

lebron-esque

so many ball hogs on the bulls - no idea how gordon and salmons exist on the same court

Scalabrine is so hilarious looking to me. He is like the official mascot of Boston sports.

yeah whatever u do do not look into the pastiness of scal's legs

kendrick perkins is the best player in the planet

three years ago this would be a joke

damn rajon

joakim hits rajon

fatality

i love big baby doin' his jordan impersonation with turnaround jumpers

prob was impossible 4 this game 2 live up 2 the series so far but this game was a snore

It would've been one of the best games in the Lakers/Utah series.

Well there was zero drama in that series. When it got to 5 in the 4th, I was not totally convinced the Celts would win.

:)

crazy crazy series my god - a round of applause all around - kudos kudos

yeah, hats off. the bulls proved formidable.

for a c's fan, game 7 turned out to be a relatively relaxing one (er, after the first quarter) with some encouraging signs of life from the c's bench, esp. marbury and house who played some shutdown D.

well, on to orlando: perk will need to become a foulproof ninja!

amongst all the magnanimity i will say joakim noah is a silly little bitch

scalabrine with the 3's XD

so glad the bulls finally have a player for others to hate on again

man i dunno hes more embarrassing than villainous - reacting like a 4 y/o to every new development - running up the court w/his imitation war face - lacking any actual basketball skills - on the other hand i compliment the bulls tolerance in being the first nba team to give significant minutes to a transsexual

the drugs are working soon they will turn yr lil vagina into a super peen

"lacking any actual basketball skills"

Impressive that he managed 11 PPG and 13 RPG despite that fact.

hes really tall and good at running around and jumping but have u ever seen him try to shoot or do anything else w/a basketball

Thankfully not.

So that stat of teams that won a season series 3-0 or better being 25-0 in the playoff is pretty wow.

ahh feelin good today, no coronaries last nite and finally some help from the bench.

lol j.r.

you realize this describes about 30 nba dudes. u just mad cause he made your boyfriend look the fool in game 6.

the whole "haha he looks like a girl whatnot having teh long hair" was played out like 2 years ago. even amongst 12 year olds.

i hated him pretty fiercely for awhile, but he's developing into someone who's good to have on your squad, basketball "skills" or not.

maybe to u girls and trannys are the same thing but for most of us

oh, you two.

is everyone forgetting about
