Man do the Hawks look like trash. Fools gold like the 54 win Knicks team.

I thought Mike Scott took and missed two horrible three attempts earlier. Also. Scott didn't hustle to retrieve a ball ruled out off Carroll, who tried to tap the ball right to Scott.

Washington couldnt/didn't beat them in game 6 after a 2-1 lead. They lost three straight to Atlanta.

Seeing the reverse angle I was wrong on Horford. This round Atlanta is getting busted on illegal screens. Horford DID pull Dellavedova down...

I wish Wittman had tried to use Humphries or even Butler at times over the series. Wizards should have been able to force a game 7 IMO.

LeBron is a one man wrecking crew. ATL or DC, it doesn't matter. No one in the East is beating him 4 times.

The Warriors pace may make him have another cramp game though. He's injured and Kyrie won't be 100% either.

Remind me again why we didn't keep Shaun Livingston?

#FireErnie ~ Because he believed Stephen Curry couldn't help us and Jan Vesely could.

People talk crap about Harden. Curry hit 40 in game three. Harden just hit 42.

I agree. I think we could have gotten 2 especially without a healthy Kyrie.

Gentleman sweep? Cavaliers are a lot better IMO.

Slept through it. A phone call woke me up after a great snooze. The game helped me sleep.

Better the Hawks got crushed than the Wizards.

AFM · Post #777 » by **AFM** » Wed May 27, 2015 3:18 am

Can we talk about how weird Bulls management is?
First there was that report of an assistant coach entering the GM's office to have a discussion. The GM turned all his fans/AC units on high, motioned to the wall and said "they're listening" (seriously).
And now they're refusing to fire Thibs until all the coaching vacancies are filled--so he can't get another job next year.
The **** is wrong with them? They are like some full on James Bond villains at this point

Preseason, I figured Hawks would have no better than 5th best record based on personnel and recent turmoil, but they have a really good system and some good players and they can build on that. Postseason showed they're at least a major piece away from serious contention. A healthy Wall and the Wizards probably would have taken the Hawks series, but I don't see them beating this Cavs. Probably best to avoid the permanent psychological damage of a nut crushing beat down.

I expect a good finals, and will be supporting the Warriors, which will create a dramatic split in our household. Apparently my wife is a LeBJ fanboy.

The funniest part is that if he can't get another job, they'll have to either pay him to be a commentator or pay him to be the coach they don't want. It's like they thought they had him on the ropes, then they blinked, and now they're all freaking out. He's probably cracking up over this, assuming he has a sense of humor, which is assuming a lot.

The GM turning on his fans story is my favorite of the year. Imagine Ernie turning his TV volume up so Ted can't overhear him.
