Sucks for Rose and the Bulls/their fans. But what's done is done.

I'd sincerely like to know why.

Were it not for the Bulls I wouldn't be an NBA fan. I'm legitimately pissed at Thibs for pulling this BS and having it blow up in his face. **** moron.

Joke only.

Forgot to say lol at the Pacers. They should still win the series but what an epic choke that games was.

Indeed but I think this speaks to how weak the East is this season. I think the Pacers have a nice team but by no means are they a dominant third seed. I think they're very beatable.

What an epic shot by Durant last night and what a fantastic game. I really hate this series. I'd like to see the Thunder do well but I like the Mavs a lot and am rooting for them. I hate the fact one of these teams will be done after the first round.

Just watched that Durant shot. Amazing.

I live in Chicago and listen to all the local sports talk, and whenever Thibs is questioned on leaving his starters in too long in blowout games, he seems insulted by the question.

The thing I've learned about Thibs is the guy hates to lose. A game on a Wednesday in the middle of January vs. Charlotte is as important to him as a playoff clinching game in April. Literally. This is why he leaves his starters in until the end. He wanted that #1 seed so bad he was willing to risk the health of his star players to clinch it...

IMO Tony Parker is one of the most under rated players in the League

It's hard to be underrated when you only play one side of the ball. I'm a big Tony Parker fan, but he doesn't give effort on defense. He's very good at penetrating and he's a top 3 finisher in the league (behind Wade and Rose IMO).

The Ultimate Teammate is not without his flaws obviously but the guy does tend to show up in the playoffs. 14 points on 50% shooting off the bench and playing crunch time minutes for the Spurs today.

I'd be fine with trading Monta and Brandon if we sign Sessions.

Ramon Sessions proving once again that if you play well in meaningless April games you'll never amount to d**k in the NBA.

You guys need to actually understand what I'm saying correctly.

Lakers would have won 45 games if not for Ramon imo.

Why are Lakers fans chanting MVP for Ramon when Kobe is at the line?

You think Sessions made them worse?

Parody of the people who were saying Ramon could never play a positive role on a winning team.
