1. I hope LEBRON Co. wins a ring so that Cleveland sports fan gets to add a
667 layer of the Cleveland Sports Abyss (C).

2. Thank you Danny Ainge!
He needs to go.

Congrats Miami...although you beat a team that I really don't believe was a contender this year.

7. Now let's see 'em get past the mighty Bulls
I don't think it will happen. The Bulls have a better point guard, better bigs, a way better bench, and home court advantage. Bulls in 6 or 7.

11. Where's Your Chirping Now?
How did one guy blow the Heat out of the gym in the 2nd half? If he's all they have he must be better than you thought.

12. Deng, Noah, Boozer
You may want to familiarize yourself with those names. Three of the five starters for the Bulls. And you may also try actually watching the Bulls instead of repeating the national talking points that the four letter network and talk radio feed you.

13. What Bluzmann Said!
Edited on Mon May-16-11 07:11 AM by ProfessorGAC
There is nothing, repeat NOTHING, the Heat can do to change the fact that the Bulls have better "bigs". There is nothing you can do to ameliorate the fact that the Bulls have 2 extrememly active 7 footers. The Heat have none.

Last night's game manifested all the advantages the Bulls have in the series. They outplayed, outhustled, and outcoached the Heat.

The only way they can do that is to take advantage of the Heat's shortcomings, which is the lack of active bigs, no answer for an attacking point guard, and a defensive scheme that is BASED upon forcing the ball to help. And, last night they did.

It's only one game, but this is something all the "experts" ignored before game one. I'll bet you they will be talking about it today.

16. No Chirping From Me
The Heat won. The Bulls shot poorly. When you shoot poorly against a very good team, you lose.

No mystery. See those of us in Chicago actually watch the NBA, so we know something about the game.

18. I Think You Should Reread It
What happened last night had nothing to do with anything i said. The Bulls shot badly. They couldn't hit the water if they were standing on the dock.

Other than a horrible shooting percentage and Haslem's great contribution off the bench, nothing changed. Miami still only scored 85 points. Had the Bulls shot just 40%, yep just 40%, they win.

They had open looks. They just missed them. For goodness sake, they missed on dunk and four layups.

But, like most Heat fans, you don't actually watch the games, so you would't know that.

20. As you suggested---
I familiarized myself with the three Bulls players you mentioned.

And your point?
