official bulls vs cavs game 5 thread

Doogles

This has been great so far. All the stars are showing up and making the plays the stars make. D Rose looks like someone who is pissed the world forgot he was an mvp. LeBron better not wait too long to Lebron. Also Kyrie is incredible around the rim.

Watch it assholes, the playoffs just started.

Last 2 games have been buzzer beaters ... I expect the next 2-3 games of this series will also be fierce battles.

The Bulls can't score yet they leave Mirotic glued to the bench. He's streaky, but he's one of the only guys on their team that can go off.

Doogles

It's getting away from the bulls, agree they need more firepower to overcome LeBron. LeBron and Irving to the hoop beats rose and butler to the hoop in a strategy battle. They need outside hitters.

Perkins is horrid, cost them at least 6 points in last two minutes

Flagged for using great to describe NBA Eastern Conference basketball.

Rose has jello knees. Cavs by 50.

Gladstone

This game is entertaining as fuck. That leg hook was hilarious and I can't believe he didn't get a T for that

Doogles

What a scam the NBA is. The fix has been in for the Cavs the entire game, but the ejection flagrant 2 given to Taj Gibson was complete bull shit.

Double technical maximum, instead st. Mary's goes to the line after leg locking a big man.

Immediate momentum swing and Cavs up 17 like that.

No surprise silver is in attendance and Crawford is reffing. They were never going to let anyone out of the east over Mr. "I'm going home"'s Cavs.

Cavs were going to win the game regardless, but to throw out Gibson and not even issue a technical to St Mary's boy is ridiculous. If Gibson gets suspended for game 6 (which I don't expect him to), then the fix is definitely in.

I think Bulls win in game 6, and then we will be headed for a game 7.

Shocking that this all happened in a Joey Crawford officiated game ...

If Gibson is suspended for Game 6, that's a complete joke.

LOL at anybody thinking that what Delladova was doing was "just a box out" ... you don't box someone out by going after his knees 2 seconds before a shot went up.

Doogles

Agree I don't think the bulls were winning, but it was going to be close down the stretch. Just a few plays earlier Gibson got hacked down low multiple times with no call then Thompson in transition gets an alley oop and 1 barely being touched.

The Cavs are better, LeBron is the best in the game, but as a sportsman I fucking hate referee interference in an outcome.

The NBA has had too much smoke for awhile for there not to be fire. The numbered flagrant bullshit is the ultimate vagina move.

BTW, is anyone else shocked how good Jimmy Butler is. I remember when we played them in the tourney and beat them. Never would have thought he would be an NBA all-star.

Gladstone

This LBJ performance is amazing.

People still watch Joey Crawford games?

It's unreal. He is the worst.

And here come the Bulls ...

The ejection has lit a fire under their ass.

NeedleInTheSky88

WOW what a game.

You guys are funny, man. Free throw attempts Bulls 28 Cavs 25. And that's with the Cavs getting 6 FTs off intentional fouls at the end of the game. And Cleveland was at home. But the refs had it out for the Bulls.

Best team won. Losers cry winners fuck the prom queen
