    how do the thunder and bulls blow those games? i mean 17-2 in 5 minutes. 18-3 in 3 minutes. young teams losing composure and older teams making incredible shots, i guess but damn amazing comebacks. who would have thought wade's meaningless little floater to cut it to 10 with 3:02 left would mean anything.

    ..... not even worth it.

    No, i'm not mad. Being guarded by two not only offensive but defensive superstars is not an easy task. He needs help.

    Shout out to TnT for the Hakeem shout out.

    Steve Kerr just compared LeBron vs Rose to Dream vs Robinson!

    Kerr with the shout-out to Hakeem over D-Rob. Much appreciated.

    Lebron is not Hakeem. That is all.

    Ah, good point. Rose averaged 40% FG this playoffs, Dirk was 38%. Pretty close, but the 8 points in the final game Dirk scored would probably give him the win for the suckest MVP ever. Rose looks like he came in second...

    his teammates played well for 2 straight games. this wasn't like games 2 and 3 where his teammates didn't show up. the bulls' role players showed up, especially on the boards and defensively.

    usually you whine when your role players don't show up any games. the bulls' role players showed up for 3 games out of 5 games in this series. that's more than enough if your role players show up for over 50% of the series.

    Rose is the first the entire defense focused on with Lebron and Wade defending/help defending in this whole playoff series.

    Lmfao okay, you obviously didn't understand my post or at least look at it objectively.

    You should understand out of all people since T-Mac received similar criticism. Oh but Tracy shot better right? Yeah well he wasn't guarded by 2 superstars in their primes.

    what hakeem did to robinson was 10x what lebron did to rose b/c he did it throughout the course of a game, every game.

    lebron only punked rose the last 5-6 minutes of every game.

    last year's boston's defense is better than this year's heat defense. and lebron faced it. wade faced it.

    that boston's defense made the lakers' offense looked liek the bulls' offense for long stretches last year in the finals.

    so just stop. this was an embarrassing playoff run (not just vs the heat; he shot 37% vs the pacers). but who are on the pacers? lebron and wade too?
