C'mon Chicago !!

 

[Proteus]

Bulls down 95-100 with 1:05 left in the 4th quarter after a Gordon jumper.

 

[Proteus]

Stupid foul by Miller.

 

[Brian in Mesa]

If Chicago loses this it's more about them choking it away then Boston beating them. Poor shot selection in the last 5 minutes.

yes. former Suns played big in Celtics' win. Marbury was instrumental with his drive-n-kicks for a House 3pt in the 4th and played great defense. House was his crazy hot shooting self. they won't have a chance against Magics though.

all in all, I'm impressed with the young Bulls. if they could get Amare for their craps of Thomas and Noah and sign Gordon for a new deal, they could be a force next year.

A team without one of their best players who barely got out of the first round will get their ass kicked by the jump shooting Magic....

Why even do this? Just skip to the Cavs-Magic ECF

You guys have to be kidding, like the Magic are all that good? Remember, this is a team that took 6 games to beat the pathetic 76'ers. Dwight Howard is the only one on the Magic that can play well on a consistent basis. They have so many guys that are on fire one night and can't hit the broad side of a barn the next night.

I'm rooting for the Magic because I hate the Celtics but Orlando just isn't that good. I think they're good enough to beat the depleted Celtics but I'll take this one as a 7 game series.

On another note, The Bulls choked big time. I have never seen a team take so many lousy shots and even miss their good shots. In an 8 minutes span of the 2nd quarter the Bulls scored 2 points, gave up 22, and turned the ball over 9 times. They deserve to lose.

UMMM, Gordon is not coming back. He wants too much money and if the Bulls make any trade, it will be for Bosh.

Well, I hardly imagine Gordon getting paid more than what Bulls offered him last year and his best chance might still be s&t.

And I'd perfectly fine if Bulls keep their promising young stars in Thomas/Noah, which I believe wouldn't be more than just servicable bigmen in this league anyway.
