What a game!

By far the best series so far. It's such a treat watching a playoff series without being so emotionally involved. My wife usually hates me come playoff time but this year it's been a blast.

maybe, it was a mistake not to consider Del Negro for Suns' oppening last year.

Another awesome game tonight

Got home, and started watching with 2:00 or so in the 4th. Great stuff. Awesome shots from Ben Gordon and Paul Pierce. And then the missed FT's at the end.

I hope the bulls pull out game 6, and we get to see a game 7

yeah great game. Should of doubled pierce at the end though...or hit him in the mouth going for the ball. why not? I think the league will at least elevate rondo's foul to a flangrant(as should have been called).....if they do like they did with carmelo and kobe(in the past)...he could be suspended.

That wouldn't surprise me.

Rondo misses Game 6, leaving the door open for a money making 7th game where the C's would get a little home cookin' from the zebras.

well the league did nothing about it so I guess it was just a hard playoff foul. I've seen that called a flagrant plenty of times in the past. In fact if you guys remember kobe bryant got suspended for the same type of foul for hitting ginobli in the face after he released the ball as well....that time on a jump shot. but it was bang bang like this one. I mean I just can't get over it because it's the same type of foul and one guy got suspended and the other guy doesn't even get a flagrant? Of corse that was the regular season so apparantly after all of the BS talk about consistency.......the NBA is still full of it. For the record I don't think rondo should be suspended, but it should have been a flagrant foul. And it should have been reviewed at the game. I'm sure they would have reviewed it if it were not at the end of the game. They were scared. and the nba front office is too proud to admit that their officials made two terrible mistakes in one night.......that impacted the results of two playoff series.

What is Rondo thinking throwing Kirk into the scores table like that?

This is the best playoff series in the history of basketball. Ok, maybe not, but close.

I hate the Green *******.

It is and its not even close. 4 out of 6 in OT and 2 out of the 4 to double OT... Just amazing and intense. I never realized how good and clutch Ben Gordon is.
