LeSuck has showed up for game 6...ugh..Blatt's offensive playcalling baffle me..Shumpert, TT and Mosgov shouldn't be the first 3 to shoot.. TT is getting destroyed on defense...just about every basket inside is a direct result of TT being overpowered or out of position.. I like the dude coming of the bench, but man as a starter its hard to watch him sometimes. People think he should get the max...theres not a snowball chance in hell that happens...he's a mid level player at MAX. Its why I wanted JR to start and not shump.. you basically have 2 guys that can score in that starting 5...there is no spacing so kyrie and lebron have to drive against a crowded lane, which they aren't, they're settling for jumpers.

Wow that was scary...dunleavey is a tool...everyone who's ever played knows you don't turn your back on the play, he did and it undercut TT..that could have been really bad

Yeah I love how i get flamed because I speak the truth AND my opinion. Sorry but Basketball is something I know ALOT about. I know when something can be improved. I point that out. big deal, get over it

I wouldn't say "no way." LeBron's company represents Thompson.

That play by Miratoc reminded me of that scene from The Longest Yard. How is that not a flagrant 2?

Quote:
1. The severity of the contact;
2. Whether or not the player was making a legitimate basketball play (e.g., whether a player is making a legitimate effort to block a shot; note, however, that a foul committed during a block attempt can still be considered flagrant if other criteria are present such as recklessness and hard contact to the head);
3. Whether, on a foul committed with a player's arm or hand, the fouling player wound up and/or followed through after making contact;
4. The potential for injury resulting from contact (e.g., a blow to the head and a foul committed while a player is in a vulnerable position);
5. The severity of any injury suffered by the offended player; and
6. The outcome of the contact (e.g., whether it led to an altercation).


That was not even close to a flagrant two.

Role players stepping up. Bulls offense is doo doo.

I really hope that Thibodeau doesn't go to New Orleans and ruin Anthony Davis for all of us.

gotta hope kyrie is okay


"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Jeudy is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Tillman is flanked out wide to the right. Judkins and Ford are split in the backfield as Flacco takes the snap ... Here we go."

How many does it need to meet? All 6?

#1 - The amount of contact was severe

#2 - Arguably a basketball move but clearly reckless

#3 - Questionable, I think he may have followed through after making contact but I would have to watch the replay

#4 - There was definitely potential for injury on that play

#5 - Clearly not met

#6 - It almost led to and altercation but the refs were right on top of it and prevented it so no.

So definitely 3 possibly 4 of the 6 criteria. Maybe that doesn't qualify but it was close.

From what I'm reading that isn't the case. Sounds like he wants complete control, hence the reason he's going to be out of Chicago. Apparently New Orleans does not like that idea.

Expect Fred Hoiberg to be the next Bulls coach. Would be a good hire too.

The media here for whatever reason, thinks Thibs walks on water, but he's not as great of a coach as people make him out to be. He'd be a great college coach if you ask me.

Doug Collins and Jalen Rose doing the halftime analysis. At least you can count on ESPN to pull guys without any prebuilt bias. tongue

Thibs would be great for the Magic, a young team that will be best if it plays great defense.

I'm hoping Alvin Gentry or Mark D'Antoni get a look in New Orleans. Davis in that up tempo offense would be great fun.

Rose is in a fantasy football league with LeBron, so I think he is fair and balanced. Collins is a Bulls homer for sure. At least they don't have Wilbon on. . .

This game is over. Chicago's offense can't get anything done. It is really hard to watch.

I credit Mozgov, he is a crushing anything that comes inside. Also, the Cavs pretty much don't have to guard Noah. I'd play Gibson or Mirotic over him.

Both these offenses are horrible right now. Long jumpers from guys who aren't good jump shooters.

This is brutal to watch. Both teams settling for horrible shots. Now that Mozgov is out I'd expect Rose and Butler to go after the rim.

I've been watching NBA Basketball for 15 years and still don't know what constitutes a charge or blocking call..
