The Bulls are giving up a ton of open looks from 15-16 feet and the Sixers aren't missing them.

That doesn't bode well for the Sixers. If they are down double digits when they are making all their jump shots, how much are they gonna be losing by in the games where the shots aren't falling?The Bulls are giving up a ton of open looks from 15-16 feet and the Sixers aren't missing them.

Although unlikely, would anybody be surprised if the Heat were knocked out by NY? Yeah the stats might not suggest it, and Miami has a lot more talent, but is just seems like something that would happen to the Heat.

They were tied in the second quarter before the Sixers went on a turnover binge and let the Bulls go on a run. When they're taking care of the ball, they're playing fairly evenly, but the Sixers are still no match on the boards.

Philly is going to be lucky to go 5 games. Out-rebounded and out-shot from three.

I hate Miami fans so much, the place looks about 70% full right now. But I'm sure the douchebags will keep rolling in late

Non-contract knee injury on an awkward jump stop from Rose....... certainly looked like it could have been an ACL, but he is putting a bit of weight on it. Would dramatically alter the course of the playoffs if its a major injury.

From the looks of it, Chicago won't have any trouble taking Philly out, but without Rose their overall trajectory doesn't look as promising.

I'm now liking the odds of a Boston/Miami ECF.

Miami with the white shirts to hide the empty seats that will appear by the 3rd quarter.

There's still a few of those left over who remember the late 90s/early 2000s rivalry. Remarkably, the Heat were among the league's biggest douches then too.People who actually care about their team?

I'm actually rooting for the Heat, since the Knicks and their fans are pricks, and I want to face Miami in the ECF. Particularly now that Rose is done.

Then you're kinder than I. I'm pulling for an asteroid to pulverize the arena or a Borg invasion of Miami or something.I'm actually rooting for the Heat, since the Knicks and their fans are pricks, and I want to face Miami in the ECF. Particularly now that Rose is done.

Like winning the lottery with a 1.7% chance so they could draft the hometown hero in the first place? The Bulls would be nothing without that absurd luck.

True, but I feel he gets boners for the stars. I have no doubt he is a NY homer, but his love for Bron and Wade shines bright
