NBA Playoffs thread.

This has been a great series between the Thunder and the Griz. Back and forth games. Game 7 here we come.

this guy is full of crap, basically he says that DRose has to become more Lebron-like

he has a point, sort of, but his solution isn't going to fix anything, because it's not something that needs fixing. Reminds me of a bumper sticker "if it aint broke, fix it until it is"

...ready or not, Rose is the front man for a high-profile team in a major market.

He's not good at it.

Maybe Rose will become more engaging, or at least audible, when he gets more comfortable in his own skin. He's got a lot of growing to do as a man, a lot of life experiences in front of him. With that comes perspective and confidence.

I'm going to trust the Bulls will encourage continued media training for Rose. They can't be happy that their first superstar since what's-his-name is as interesting off the court as listening to paint dry....

The game needs a lot more players to shut up and play, but the NBA needs more "entrepreneurs". And yeah, that guy is a retard.
 
One of the best things about LA losing is that we don't have to deal with all the Kobe, Phil, Gasol, Fisher, and Artest drama.

I hate how the NBA is always trying to make up stories and exaggerate life experiences to try and sell their players. Right now, the NBA is trying its hardest to promote Rose. Which is why you gotta love teams like the mavs and Grizz.
 
I think Rose needs to really make an effort to get Boozer involved early in each game. I think if Boozer and Rose are on each game, then Miami has no chance to stop them. Miami's front court is the kind Boozer has big games against.
 
If I was Doc Rivers I would have tried to give Troy Murphy some more burn during the regular season. The dude use to be a knock down 3 point shooter and excellent rebounder, seems like he could have contributed more than Big Baby Davis did.
 
Chicago desperately needs to find ways to make Rose a PG first and scorer second. If he tries to shoot 30+ shots against Miami, then Chicago is going to be swept. If he lets the game come to him and gets the ball to Boozer and creates for others, then Chicago might have a chance in this.
 
Have we just witnessed the End of an Era? The Collins Brothers Era. Is it over now? Looks like Jarron the Useless is done. Is Jason the Equally Useless also done? The NBA will never be the same. Thank God. Still hate thinking of the waste of time he was for the Jazz.

Hubie Brown disagrees with you.
 
Jeff Van Gundy mentioned during Memphis game that to draw a charge the defender should need to be in position when the shooter goes into his shooting motion. Refs get this wrong much too often.
