Why is everyone assuming the Heat are gonna reach ECF?  -_-

They're not. Period

Because the Celtics should be 0-2 right now...


Each of the Bulls wins have been come from behind victories from the worst team this post season in the playoffs....if they are having this much difficulty against the Pacers , I dont want to see them play Atlanta or Orlando.

Chicago has shown that they aren't ready to go far in the playoffs with what they have shown.

I was appalled by the officiating of the the Bulls / Pacers game last night.  The Pacers were playing extremely dirty and getting away with murder.  I don't have a problem with the no easy baskets and make them earn it at the line mentality , but I haven't seen those kind of tactics used since Pat Riley was coaching.  Foster and McRoberts were trying to hurt people and Jones' leg whip on C.J. Watson wasn't pretty either.  Oh well, the Bulls still won.         

By the way, people that think that the Bulls don't have a deep playoff run in them are strongly mistaken.  They match up well against all of the teams in the Eastern Conference and won't be pushed to the limit until the finals.  Mark my words.

So, what was that about Celtics sucking?

14-19 from Pierce (6-8 in 3p), 11-18 from Ray (8-11 from 3p), 15p/20as/11rb in a typical triple double by Rondo..

Fear us, Miami, the Celtics are coming for you....




Boston should definitely be 0-3 right now......

Lakes up by 14 with 8:00 left to play.

I think it's safe to finally turn on the T.V. and watch (nervous fan here haha).

EDIT: Pau hits a 3 pointer... oh man I love these guys.

 A lot of factors to explain the close games so far. The Pacers fired their coach during the season and have somewhat turned things around with their new coach. So their measly 37 win record is a little deceptive. Also, the Bulls have this strange tendancy to "play down" to their opponents. I see a Pacer team that is playing their heart out with extreme confidence, and the Bulls sort of resting on their laurels, thinking they could breeze by this team. They have been given a rude wake up call. So basically, I don't think this series tells the whole story for da bulls. They have the talent, they just have to execute. There is a reason they won 62 games.

The Pacers Assistant coach became their head coach for now and thats hardly a shake up. The pacers are playing the same brand of basketball that got them their 37 wins......its the bulls that aren't playing the brand of basketball that got them 62. If the pacers can force that , then either Atlanta or Orlando can force it even harder.
