stern made the call to the refs to make sure rose to gets to the line whenever he dribbles

[kg is king]

Told you the refs helping rose was gonna happen. Indiana winning was asking for too much. They choked in the last 2 min. with a freaking 10 point lead.

The refs only made 1 call regarding Rose and it was definitely a foul. Come on man, Rose is a superb player.

Ugh, tough loss for Indiana, not sure they will recover in the series.

But it just confirmed to me that Chicago won't beat Orlando.

Nice little comeback from Chicago. Inexcusably poor play from Boozer though.

I'm not sure what people expect from Boozer, this is what he is

I've always regarded Boozer pretty highly.  Excellent complementary offensive player (or even go-to guy against the right match-ups), superb rebounder for his size and strong competitor.  Defensively he's always been weak, but come on, Tyler Hansbrough?

you're right on about Boozer, and as you said, not much of a defender. You are understimating Hansborough though.

Does anyone really think Rondo is on the same level as Rose anymore?

NO, Rondo is better at PG. Rose is better at everything else, though.

Gotta love the playoffs.

Amazing! Indiana blows a 10-point lead in 2 minutes!

Not that amazing.  Their lead was built on extraordinarily hot 3-pt shooting (and commensurately poor shooting from the Bulls) and Ty Hansbrough's shot-making. And they'd had absolutely no success in stopping Rose.

ohhhh a white out in miami...so original..i wonder when the crowd will show up...

[P2]

OK, next: Miami down 9 midway through 1.

But it just confirmed to me that Chicago won't beat Orlando.

yeah...series over..if the magic shooters can hit outside shots..they have a good shot at beating the bulls

Bulls are lucky their playing Pacers. Any other team would've of blown them out today.

Ugh, tough loss for Indiana, not sure they will recover in the series.

But it just confirmed to me that Chicago won't beat Orlando.

Why, specifically?  I saw nothing to make me believe that.

[mgent]

I can't believe the way the refs favor all the top teams except us.  If we got calls like the Bulls, Heat, Lakers, or even the Magic we'd never lose a game.

[LarBrd33]

good news is that we will not get far enough to see Noah freak out on us like that.  

[CelticSooner]

Nice start by the Sixers.
