Stuff from the United Center 

Post#1 » by SherronShabazz » Fri May 27, 2011 6:00 am

What a meltdown.

That was hard to watch. I felt like I was melting or drowning or falling off of a cliff. Horrible.

The sadness in the locker room... tough to see. The guys were sad and angry. A few players thought the refs had a big hand in the end of the game to help Miami.

I saw Joakim's mom crying. Lots of people were crying. Too emotional for me man.

The Heat? Huge smiles. From Pat Riley on down they were ecstatic. Can't say I blame them but it was tough to see in our building.

I had a reporter and an usher tell me that before the game LeBron said "Today is y'all last day of work. We ain't coming back to this motherf*cker! Pack y'all sh*t up!"

classy dude. He said damn near the same thing last year in the cavs series. Why he needs to express this to united center employees is a mystery.

There was a lot of talk among reporters about Boozer not coming back. In my mind who wants him? He's un-tradeable. But a ton of people are certain that Boozer won't be back. I don't see how.

I got to meet Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith. Super nice guys.

Paxson looked royally pissed off after the game. He was power walking from the locker room when i saw him. Gar didn't look as bothered.

It was like a funeral in the locker room. It sucked.

I took video of Noah at his locker but the sound is bad.

Because he's a self-centered wang who lives in his own private mental bubble?

i didn't see a bulls player cry. it was mostly employees and family members. i'm sure some of them did cry. cj and kurt seemed to handle it better than everyone else. they seemed oddly upbeat.

guys were saying that the refs were calling bull calls to stop the clock to let miami back in. no major guy was saying this. it was guys who barely play.

agreed on the other two points.

I have no hate on the Miami Heat's talent. I give them total props for winning the series and us not just losing it. I give Lebron props for being clutch in a playoff series for once in his life. But...

... the **** those 3 assbags say is the reason why I despise this **** team. I may be biased, but I just don't remember alot of crap like this from the All-Star players on championship teams like our 90s Bulls or the Spurs of the 00s.

When the 3 vagines learn to just shut up and win without the need of so much attention, then I will respect them as a whole.

it was too much. it surprised me. i think somebody let something leak. somebody heard something or knows something. hey, pax and gar can't be happy with what booz has done. but he's owed what, 60 million? good luck dumping that on someone.

i get the feeling they will try and do something major if possible. the bottom line is this, we are good enough to make it to the eastern conference finals but not good enough to win at all. something has to change.

i was never on the melo bandwagon but this series made me think "man we shoulda traded joakim for melo"

too late now but... we needed scoring and joakim kinda sucked.

Hmm the Boozer talk is very surprising, and while I can not see someone take Boozer but there is always someone who will be a sucker and take on the contract you never know.

And as for Lebron what a douche I already rant like crazy on twitter which I believe some of you saw already maybe I should bash Lebron on twitter LOL!

Sherron I'm holding out hope that Jo was in a funk towards the end of the year because he had to play all his @#$% minutes with Booz.

I still believe he was confused all year as to what to do to cover for Booz on D. & didn't mesh well with him on O.

i agree 100%. a buddy of mine loves lebron and said, "i don't understand why everyone hates lebron because he's the best player in the world."

i said dude... people don't hate him because he's a great player, they hate him because he's a douche.

he of course replied, but michael jordan was a douche!!

We'll have to see if he's now clutch or just a phase. If it's for real it will be something awful to behold.
