Anybody who thinks the Heat will lose the series v the bulls should stop gambling.

[d2bets]

LOL the Bulls went on a RUN when Rose was out of the game!! Last time I checked, the Bulls got more calls AND shot more free throws. Anyone that blames games on the refs are retarded. Do you know how hard it is to fix a playoff game? "NBA wants long series." No shit they hope for it. If they could control it you think the lakers would get swept or boston would lose in 5? Get the fuk outa here with that. In a 7 game series, the better team wins the series every time.

Try and actually watch the game. The Bulls went on their runs without rose. Teams like teh Bulls are not built for the playoffs, what don't you understand Johon.

Hogwash. Bulls lost because Rose had a very very bad game. Worst game of the playoffs, worst in as long as I can remember. Has nothing to do with how they are built, he just had a bad game. Doesn't happen very often. Good bet it won't happen again soon. And the Bulls shot the ball terribly. I suppose you could say similar about Lebron in Game 1, although that game was more of a blowout.

I'm thinking this is going to be a classic zig-zag series. Bulls, Heat, Bulls, Heat, Bulls, Heat, Bulls.

You know NOTHING about basketball if you think the Bulls have a chance in this series. ******* clueless moron. The Heat won it all when they sent Boston packing.

Right. I'd take Asik over Haslem. You f**king dopes slay me.

Too bad Asik couldnt guard Haslem at all. In fact - LBJ and Wade didnt score when Asik was in the game. Did anyone notice that? The Heat all of a sudden went down low to get all their points.

Haslem would be in the HOF if he could play vs Asik everynight.

[big0mar]

no, it isn't. D.Rose runs the half court offense extremely well

How did their half court offense do last night? The Bulls have nobody to go to in the half court. The best they can hope for is offensive rebounds leading to open 3s. Rose is about to learn what LeBron learned in Cleveland. Trying to score in the half-court without any other players will not work.

Could they got Omer Asik?

Bulls have no scoring they can count on besides Rose.Say goodnight Bulls

Down low? Haslem didn't even score down low. He had a couple transition baskets and a few jumpers. Did you watch the game? Wade didn't score against Asik because he stuffed him.

If you would take Haslem on your team over Asik going forward then you know nothing about basketball.

[jollyoscars]

the heat are screwed. they are too immature and classless of a team to where they will eventually combust and bulls win

[thebestthereis]

heat can't win, the bulls won game 1 and they are bulls and have the mvp. so that is the why.

Uhhh, and guys like Chris Bosh do?

Come on dude, you have already lost all credibility and are turning into a joke. When you make ridiculous statements like this, it just reinforces your status as a joke.

It's not THAT ridiculous if you have watched Booz this post season. Gibson should start ahead of him.

Bosh has 2 of the greatest 25 players in NBA history on his team- maybe you forgot they are veterans and not young rookies like Rose. Bosh is a solid player, on a whole different level than a guy like Boozer, who is a detriment to his team defensively. Bosh is a top 25 player in this league today, Boozer is not even in the top 100.

[t-wizzle]

Made a thread about Boozer a few days ago. One of the worst signings long-term that i have seen in a while. Of course in the nba, there are always terrible signings, but Boozer is garbage. He helped Chicago out this year giving them a post presence but he is an awful defender and historically has been very injury-prone. In 3 years or so, he will be a pretty irrelevant player.

[suicidekings]

You know NOTHING about basketball if you think the Bulls have a chance in this series. ******* clueless moron. The Heat won it all when they sent Boston packing.

So Boston was the only challenge the Heat had to overcome to guarantee a title? They still need 3 more wins against the Bulls and 4 more against the Thunder/Mavs. Talk about clueless...

There's a lot worse players out there with rings over the years...

[Goat Milk]

Suicide- sure, way worse players have won rings. But who has won a ring that has been given a ROLE like Boozer but can't LIVE UP to that role? Boozer was brought in to be the second option- a 18 and 10 guy which he clearly is not- a guy that would be able to get his shot at any time in the post. The guy is horrible on defense and can barely create his own offense in the post.

Bosh for example has lived up to his role- they knew he'd be an 18 and 9 sort of guy, a third option with limited touches. There's so many examples of guys that have been brought in and are way worse than expected. Boozer is one of those guys that was just a horrible signing as T wizzle said and I remember saying in Sweet Jones thread on the day Miami got Lebron and Bosh "Thank God Miami didn't sign Boozer"

Signing Boozer to a huge, long-term deal is a lot like signing Jayson Werth of Carl Crawford to a huge, long-term deal.

Well, you didn't say anything about any other players. You just said "guys like Boozer don't win rings." So I said neither do guys like Bosh. Keep the comparison between those two players. If you think there is a big difference between the two, other than Bosh playing with Wade and Lebron, then you are just wrong. They are very similar players...

[No coincidences]

True, but the Bulls can't beat the Heat -- let alone win the title -- if Boozer isn't playing as well and consistent as he can possibly play. He needs to be more than just a role player.

alright bro. I'm not going to talk basketball with you if you think Bosh and Boozer are on the same level. I said from day 1 that signing boozer was a horrible idea and thats the way its looking. They signed him to be a 20 and 10 guy and he's barely a third option

[No coincidences]

FTR, I think Bosh and Boozer are both garbage.

Do you really have any right at this point to pull the whole "holier than thou" approach when it comes to basketball knowledge?

Again, I'll give you credit for your persistence Goat. Utterly delusional, yes, but also markedly persistent.

gambling has nothing to do with basketball no coincidences. they are barely even related. i see guys on here winning on a consistant basis that can't even name a starting lineup in the nba. enough said.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO....please don't take that away from me!! What will I ever do without your clearly biased opinion

Let's see. Both Bosh and Boozer are big men that would rather shoot the the jumper. Both Bosh and Boozer can be defensive liabilities at time. It's clear that Bosh did not want the pressure of being the "guy" and so he chose to play with the Heatles. Whereas, Boozer wants to be the "guy" but just is not that type of player.

They both have their weaknesses and their strengths. So please, pretty please, explain to me how they are so different. But try not to use hyperbole or clearly biased arguments. Thanks.

Bosh is better than Boozer, but the gap isn't cavernous.

Just ignore this fool -- let him embarrass himself on his own (which can and will happen, as he's proven time and time again).

I would agree that Bosh has clearly been the better player this year. As you say, however, the difference is not cavernous and that was my whole point.

For someone to point out that guys like Boozer don't win rings, it's a ridiculous statement when this is a team game. Bosh is better, but not that much better and if guys like Boozer don't win rings then neither do guys like Bosh.

Everyone says the Bulls and Rose don't have the experience. But I would argue the experience they gained two years ago when they took the Celts to 7 games, was the exact experience they can build off.

For starters Bosh has been a 1st option for his entire career, averaging 23 and 10 boards and shooting 50 percent from the field for most of his career. Boozer has NEVER been a first option on any team. Boozer has averaged about 18 and 10 for most of his career. Do you also realize that Boozer's best years were when he was playing with the best PG in the game in Deron Williams? Now he's with Rose he should be putting up 20 and 10 easily playing with the best PG in the game.

Bosh is better defensively than Boozer, Boozer makes tons of mental mistakes, has always been a liability on the free throw line when it matters in big games. Derron Williams made boozer into the player that he is. You could tell that a guy like Stoudemire was always a superstar with or without Nash because he could create his own shot off the dribble or in the post, both of which boozer struggles to do. Other than that Bosh is playing with the 2 best statstical players in the NBA, yet still puts up better numbers than Boozer. Both are pussies and neither is tough.

Don't say I'm biased because I always said that I was never a fan of Lebron or Bosh's personalities, I'm a fan of Lebron's game, I'm not a fan of Bosh's game or character and lack of toughness.

Bosh will go down as a MUCH better Power Forward when both players retire. No questions about it.

You've been wrong on almost every single bet/thread you've made over nearly two full months. It's been an embarrassing streak that would make Brock Landers cringe. You got murdered taking Miami Game 1. I know you think we're going to bow down to you and you'll be redeemed if the Heat win this series, but the damage has been done, Goat.

You may get the last laugh on this particular topic of discussion if Miami reaches the Finals, but in the meantime, you've gone broke and we've been laughing our way to the bank for weeks now. It'll be too little too late. Sorry. I suggest you re-activate one of your ghost accounts and try to trick us into thinking you're someone else from now on.
