2010-11 NBA Playoffs / Finals

I'll be very much looking forward to game 2.

If MIA can't beat CHI, then no matter what Lebron is still unproven.

He was swept by Spurs in 06-07...and since then, he hasn't gotten out of the Eastern Conference.

I think this is MIA's best shot at a gift-wrapped Championship, THIS YEAR....if they can't beat CHI, it won't get any easier next year for them.

CHI's bigs and (Luol Deng especially), played very well.

As much as MIA trots out Lebron as a PF, Boozer will eat him alive if they continue that route.

And was that a Jamal Magloire siting?? MIA's getting desperate already and it's Game 1.

I am officially waiting for the "We should have fired Doc and kept Thibs" thread to pop up

I think it's more than just Thibs and Doc, IMO....CHI's got the horses for this series.

I really believe that CHI's got this series, and it's because Booz, Noah, Taj, and Asik will pound MIA's interior.

I think Bosh will have more games similar to this one, but he's not stopping anyone.

the bulls have a better team with more depth, and they are as young as the Heat so they can play at their pace for 48minutes...I think they can take this series...

and lebum can go home and cry that he still doesnt have a ring.

Wow Chicago really cleaned up on the offensive glass.  19 to 6.  They shot worse but all those second chances killed the Heat.

Can the Bulls perimeter defense contain James and Wade for 3 more games?

I dunno about that.

Chicago in 3!

[PosImpos]

Chicago effectively took advantage of the Heat's lack of an inside presence.  Nice to see somebody finally do that successfully.

Wade's physical play took Celtics out of there game and they did not have an answer for his intensity. The Bulls and Taj Gibson did!

As much as I enjoyed watching Chicago beat Miami, I don't think the remaining games are gonna be anywhere near the blowout that this one was.

Game 1 of this series was the classic emotional let down game for Miami. Chicago looked like a team hungry to prove itself and do anything to win. Miami looked like the team that is relieved to be past Boston.

I doubt Chicago is gonna bury 10 3 pointers per game, or outboard the Heat by 10+ every game.

I think this sucker is gonna go 6 or 7 games and be wildly entertaining.

Go Bulls and go Mavs! :-P

Anyone else get kind of uncomfortable with the pre-lottery intros?

[barefacedmonk]

I like Perk and Tunder...but I'll be rooting for Dallas in this series....I really want Dirk to win his first ring. Thunder will have more opportunities later...they are a young team.

[barefacedmonk]

Nowitzki has 6 points already.

[barefacedmonk]

OKC is playing well...
