But....rose was missing all his shots when guarded by bron.. Until they switch kyrie back on him.. How is thay not guarded him well? Although that hack though
Rose had a play where he crossed lebron and literally left him on his spot, rose just missed the lay up. Lebron can't guard him. You know what lebron misses more than having d wade there to support him? That miami heat team defense ....

Whats gets me is Rose is shooting 39% from the field this series.

And without that lucky bank shot he would have been at 34% for the game.

I may very well be wrong. But I think a lot of yall are getting caught up in the fools gold.

There is a better chance LeBron goes from 39% (as well) to 50% than Rose.

But cook :win:

I was actually happy for Rose and wasnt mad that the Bulls won. :manny:

This was just the highlight...before the fallout imo.

Time will tell if I'm right or not. :ehh:

We have seen him be like this all year. He hasn't been consistent with his shot or scoring, but he came through last night in the 2nd Half. They still had way too many empty possessions late that annoyed me though.

I'm actually more relieved that Thibs finally mixed up his lineups in this game more than the 1st 2 games. That's all I can ask for as a Bulls fan, is that the team is put in the best possible position to win a game. That game was all on the players last night, a lot of that had to do with Pau going down in the 3rd. (Thibs plays him the entire 1st and 3rd quarters for some reason) He started the 2nd with Niko out there and that was big for us.

Taj and Niko need to play, that's all we've been calling for. Finally glad to see it

:blessed:

No doubt the Cavs are giving up too many points to the Bulls. But this Bulls team is also more offensively talented than the ones the Heat faced.

Its the other guys hurting the Cavs not Rose. Thibs finally played Niko. That 12 points was huge. Jimmy Butler having a huge 2nd half and getting the better of LeBron was huge.

Rose in 2011 23/7/4 35% from the field

Rose in 2015 23/7/6 37% from the field

What LeBron is missing is Chris Bosh vs. the Bulls more than Wade. Bosh killed the Bulls and his pick and roll defense was superb.

While Love wouldnt have given much defensively. I think he's missing Kevin ability to space the floor while also being able to rebound well.

I dont think it comes down to lebron vs rose at all

I think it comes down to the rebounding where we won that battle last night, and the spacing on the floor that allows jimmy and rose to operate because once taj and Niko was on the floor jimmy and rose both picked they game up.

I think what should alarm you the most is defensively we got some stops and on the other end the bulls got the shots they pretty much wanted. We just couldn't knock shots down. Even smith late 3s were very much contested. So just as much as lebron could turn it on and rose could stay inconsistent the cavs could cool From 3 and our offense could pick it up.

Rose was blowing by Bron every time dog. Stop stat watching and watch the game. He just didn't finish but Bron was 3 steps behind him.
He didn't have Bosh to save him this time. And Bron ain't as quick as he used to be but neither is D
U can see me post during the game.. I speak of what i saw.. Rose missed when lebron guarded him.. Most where rushed or awkward shots

So did you not see Bron 3 steps behind him?
Almost all of Rose's drives are going to be awkward looking. He contorts his body in weird ways bron had nothing to do with that
