Sick move by Rose there, went by Rondo like he wasn't even there.

So does Rose win this here? My money says no.

Ray choke.

Rondo clutch.

As good as Derrick Rose has been today, Rondo has been almost as good... By far the best Celtics player today.

A 3/6 matchup when the 3 seed is without their best player. Umm, yay?

I bet Ben Gordon jacks up some dumb shot... 35% chance it goes in.

Damn. Hopefully Rose can hit the game-winner here.

I can't see the Bucks w/o Redd and Bogut making a game out of this. It's not like most people believe CV would step up.

Seeing Sessions in the playoffs would have been fun, though.

Well, there are a few differences between the Bulls and us.

a) Bulls #1 overall is coming of age into a top 10/15 superstar during this game. Our #1 overall quit on the team during his first round series against Detroit in 2006.

b) KG isn't playing. Boston is a really wounded #2 seed.

LOL. Not even close to a travel.

WTF?!?!?! Stupid ass official

LOL at Rondo.

Damn right yay. This has been a good game and the Bulls could spring the upset in Game 1.

Sploosh.

OH NO!!! MARBURY FOR THE WIN?!?!?!?

HAHAHA

Stephon Marbury is going to win it for the Celtics

Rondo has to be hurt. When he dove for that ball his limbs were all over the place.

I'm not comparing the Bucks and Bulls. I'm saying that the widespread belief in this forum that making the playoffs as a low seed is a sign of failure and not something worthy of praise is BS.
