First Round: Cavs vs. Bulls (CLE Wins: 4-1)

[kiwibrindle]

As we learned late year, the playoffs is all about matchups. Lets see how long it takes to get the small lineup in that gave the Bulls trouble last time. I would not mind seeing Antwan match up against Noah early. His shot is so unorthadox he should get a foul or two early. I don't like the guy but he has showed up big for Chicago. Props to that bigmouth.

Let's finish this at the Q on Tuesday. Maintain the same focus as game 4 and we're moving on to the next round.

I am surprised at the number of Bulls fans that were complaining about the refs in the first half of this game. IMO it was clearly in favor of the Bulls. Shaq, Varejao and Jamison were all in foul trouble with almost all fouls being very minor contact.

Thought this was funny.

There is a big diference between Chicago and Cleveland. well between Cleveland and the rest of teams. it will be the champions

It is time for the "Closer to close this Series out...Go Cavs!!!

Rose might not be able to play game 5?

Bulls point guard Derrick Rose will have an MRI on his left ankle.

Rose tweaked the ankle on Sunday in Chicago's Game 4 loss to Cleveland.

Luol Deng also missed the team's practice on Monday with a sore right knee and calf.

Both players are expected to play in Game 5 on Tuesday.

"He was sore [Monday]," Bulls coach Vinny Del Negro said of Rose. "He jammed it on Shaq's foot. He was limping a little bit today, so hopefully he'll be better and see how he feels."

If he was a better free throw shooter haha would have like 40 ppg though.

He would have to be a 133% FT shooter to have 40 ppg in the series...kinda hard to do.

Thanks CZBron. I knew how easy that'd be to figure out and didn't quite understand why the number was being inflated so.

Hated that the orlando won their series for easily. I am really hoping for the heat to win game 5 over the celitcs. The more games the celtics end up playing against the heat, hopfully the more worn out the celtics will be against the Cavaliers.

The bulls are making a game out this, needs to get some stops.

it was a fun series although the bulls lost, it was mostly competitive and fun to watch good luck!
