#568I like LB but his internet rep definitely took a hit with taking his home team every game regardless of how bleak it looked.
You can still be in my gang though LB, dont worry

#575GAME FIVE: ATLANTA at CHICAGOChicago was -9 and -8.5 in the first two games at home. The market had been losing respect for the Bulls given their shaky play vs. Indiana, and the condition of Derrick Rose's ankle. The big wins had gained that respect. Now, the market has settled where it began, unsure of what to make of these teams and this series. The total is up from 178.5 in the last game. The four meetings thus far have landed on 198, 159, 181, and 188. That's an average of 181.5...so the market is basically posting the average figuring that will do a good as job as any of getting the job done.
Series tied 2-2
Vegas Line: Chicago by 8.5, total of 181
GAME FOUR STATS
ATLANTA 100, CHICAGO 88
Shooting Percentage: Chicago 41%, Atlanta 49%
Three-Pointers: Chicago 3/16, Atlanta 4/11
Free Throws: Chicago 21/27, Atlanta 16/20
Rebounds: Chicago 37, Atlanta 36
Turnovers: Chicago 10, Atlanta 12
Vegas Line: Chicago by 3.5, total of 178
Notebook: These teams are evenly matched when Atlanta is playing intense defense, and/or hitting their jumpers. When Atlanta shows up overconfident, or otherwise distracted (there's just no excuse for their poor defensive play in Game Three), then Chicago can pretty much name the score.
You can see above that the Hawks held Chicago to 41% from the field. They did a very good job of converging on Derrick Rose and forcing mistakes. Most of his mistakes were throwing bad shots into opponent's swats...which is why he had few turnovers but a lot of blocked shots. The biggest problem for the Bulls as a team came from three-point land. They were a woeful 3 of 16, which was reminiscent of the poor 5 of 22 they shot in Game Two. They won that won anyway because Atlanta scored just 73 points.
In short, Atlanta CAN win this series if they can just keep their heads on straight two times in the next three. They can also get run out of the gym in two straight if they lose their intensity again, or if the Bulls make some treys even against an inspired effort.
Clearly this is a series where focus and mindset are everything. The stats don't matter because they're the tail getting wagged by the dog. When Atlanta is focused, they have good stats and Derrick Rose struggles to shine. When Atlanta is uninvolved, Rose can fly past 40 points on a soft ankle (which looks to be getting better every game as he recovers. We'll be working with our on site sources very closely to get the information you need to win. Our stat guys and computer programmers will be asked to focus on Game Five of Boston-Miami and Memphis-Oklahoma City, which you'll read about tomorrow.Comment -

#591great reasoning, Boston is done. Think again chief. This game will come down to the wire. Phil Jackson showed his true retardedness by leaving Derick Fisher on Jason Terry, same thing he did last year in the finals with Ray Allen, except he got lucky Allen got tired in game 6/7 from having to guard Bryant for 7 games. This time, Terry didn't have to guard anyone.
Jackson is a great coach, but easily the most overrated coach in nba history. ESPN analysts don't talk about that because they don't know dick about how you win basketball gamesCause Sleep is the Cousin of DeathComment -
