No Love, No Lackin - Bulls vs Cavs Semi-ECFs Thread

[Brozay]

Bulls used to have heart and defense

shyt is sad seeing them this broken

12 minutes 1 fg attempt, 0 points,0 rebs, 0 assists, 1 foul, -15 per

That calming, gritty, veteran presence though

But Thibs played Kirk the entire 2nd quarter, who's responsible for substitutions?

JR smith made threes on Snell in that pivotal game 4, so it does not matter who he puts out there. The roster just does not click because there are important players on this team who are over the hill and the young potential is not ready yet. The Bulls FO should have surrounded Thibs with proven seasoned wing depth.

20-2 run with Kirk on the floor.

Who were they stopping?

I'm not a bulls fan, so you tell me who should replace hinrich? Y'all have too many bad defenders that aren't great on offense.

I feel you tho fam

my breh ain't a bulls fan, he just a rose/thibs/noah/gasol/niko/butler/mcdermott fan

Why did Kirk play the entire 2nd Quarter?

Kirk shouldn't be playing at all.

I'm not talking about Game 4. And if a guy hits contested shots you tip your hat anyway.

The crazy thing is that the bulls and cavs both have 19 fields made but the cavs have 8 more 3's. There's a reason why Lebron kept the corpse of Jame Jones on this roster because of his A+ shooting.. LeGm>>>>

Cavs roleplayers have stepped up throughout the series. No one can say Lebron doesn't have help.

You think these role players step up like this if they don't play with Lebron... Bron brings out the best of role players

 

[Primetime]

At some point, a team realizes they can't win, and at some point it becomes obvious a team has quit on they coach and mailed it in

I think this 2nd qt is that moment

Welp, it's been real bulls brehs.

They'll make one more run at least. Maybe 2 more. But unless Jimmy and Dunleavy catch fire from 3.. it'll be nothing more but huffing and puffing fake hustle plays, barking at the refs after every call and a shytload of unforced turnovers as they get more 'desperate' to make something out of nothing.

We've seen this narrative before throughout playoff history.

Hello, Malcolm.

Don't hello me nikka

I'm not going to hate ..welcome to cavsset

 

[Edub]

The cavs GM should have won executive of the year.



They won with them moves.

Win or lose a championship...his midseason maneuvers should go down as legendary...this nikka saved JR and Shump's careers and got them in a possible position to win multiple chips...gotta love it...Bron finally got his team to ride out into the sunset with...imagine if k-love was healthy...(never should have hated on Bron)

 

[wild100sboy]

Just take us out back

Literally anyone but Hinrich would be an improvement

He was arguably the worst player in the league this year
