    I'd laugh so hard if the finals matchup was ATL vs MEM.

    Whoever wins this round will easily go past the Bulls or the Hawks.
    It's what people are saying, win this round, and earn a trip to the finals.

    It would be an awesome payback for the blatant cheating in 02'

    I would actually watch MORE of that series than Lakers/Heat which would make me nauseous with the announcers fawning. (I realize I may be alone in that)

    this bulls team goes as their D and rebounding go.

    it doesn't help that rose hasn't been efficient all playoffs, something i harp on all year.

    and this has to be joe johnson's best playoff game of his life. props.

    While DRose is simply dominant, CHI is way too dependent on him.

    Where are Boozer and Korver? Noah is just a garbage man. Thibodeau may be having problems with his offensive sets. And CHI's reluctance to get a starting SG at trade deadline may finally be biting them.

    How do you defend against ATL where you have multiple scoring threats at All-Star level?

    It's a 2 way streak, Rose has relied on his team's defense to cover up for inefficiency lots of times. He shot bad the whole Pacers game but his team D held off the Pacers in those close games. Remember he shot 35% while taking a large portion of their shots..

    rose hasn't shot over 50% in any playoff game yet.

    DRose said his ankle is fine, said it's not anything like the sprain he suffered against Pacers. Said with treatment he'd be OK for Game 2.

    Hard to keep track of all these new young black coaches.

    Yea hes looking not so great right now.

    I knew his shooting wasnt that great, but I didint think he would be shooting this bad in the playoffs. He really needs to step it up big time or Chicago will be going home soon.

    Memphis vs ATL would be freakin awesome.

    But I'd take any team beating the Heat. Boston, or Atlanta
