Novak is pretty much useless on the court if he isn't getting wide open three's.

Looking forward to the Boston Atlanta game.

James and Wade remind me of Drake and Rihanna.

Why take the last shot when you're down by 2? And what type of shot was that for Wade to take? I tell you if he were a better jump shooter...

:lol: Ask Sixers what it means for them to play in playoffs only because of Bogut injuries. Ask Pacers last year why they felt good playing in playoffs only because of our injuries. Ask Hawks from 3 years ago why they even tried to beat us in playoff without Bogut. You are funny dude :lol:

Ask yourself how having injury prone players get injured is an excuse.

I wonder if you'll be asking why we don't win a playoff series next year, when you don't have your BS injury excuses to use. Oh wait, you think making it is enough. :lol:

Nene should be on this Hawks squad. Maybe they can make a deal for him. Otherwise I want to see Boston own this game.

Uh, I wouldnt mind a series victory over an injured Bulls team. I've seen enough Bucks playoff losses due to injuries or suspensions (Scott Williams).

That stuff comes with the game.

1. How do you know Rose even gets injured against us?

2. The tankers didn't cause the Bucks to miss the playoffs. Their sucking did, so they are who you should direct your anger to.

Yeah I'm the same, you take a playoff win when you can get it, god knows we've had enough shocking luck with injuries the last few years here.

Given he had literally about 6 different injuries that had him miss time this season followed by an ACL that he blew out completely on his own without any contact, would you consider Rose injury prone now?

I see the mental midgets in Atlanta have decided a 4th game of a playoff series isn't very important. Down 35 midway through the third? Seriously? LOL.

It's good to see Horford back though, even if they are getting smoked.

Boston looking good tonight. Hopefully everybody is healthy going against Miami. Should be a great series.

Anything lower body I'm never convinced a player will fully heal from, I'd probably put him in that category going forward.
