I don't know... Just need him to bring the ball up the court and make the right first pass.

See that's the problem with having shoot first guards. That pass should have been reentered to Butler.

Gotta give the Bull credit. They've made a game of this.

Sure did.

Hopefully Boston continues to shit the bed.

Yep. As I'm watching this I'm thinking no way in he'll this is a .500 team. Should be better. Hoiberg has made adjustments and it looks like so has Butler. He is moving the ball around a lot better during the 2nd half. He isn't forcing shots.

_________________

At this point it's like you sort of expect them to win based on the last two games. The Bulls are playing with nothing to lose - they barely made it and then promptly stole home court away from Boston. Boston is playing with all the lofty expectations of the no 1 seed, is in a must win situation, and still is only up three against the Bulls who are missing their catalyst PG. Bulls [should] got this.

No. The bulls simply decided that when the playoffs start, they start playing defense. Like, I don't give a shit, fuck you defense. That is why they are better.

Oops.

Bad shot by Butler. Has to pass out of the double. Grant open.

Three bad possessions in a row and BAM, you're down 9 now.

Doube Oops!

Another bad shot by Butler.

_________________

He's really forced things here in the 3rd.

Good hustle by Butler. The Bulls points aren't giving them shit.

Hoiberg should try and post either MCW or Grant on Thomas. They'd have to double either of them against Thomas.

KC tweeted Ben Gordon's sitting courtside. Can he suit up for the 4th?

I would take him and Pippen over MCW and Grant

Bulls are actually playing hard. Defense has been good. They just can't hit shots. Especially Butler.

Hopefully Butler gets it going in the 4th. Only way they can win.

They are wearing the Bulls out with that high screen roll. The Bulls bigs are acting like they've never seen it before. They aren't communicating on that play. Don't know who is suppose to cover the roll man

Felicio's defense has been terrible.

No magic tonight

Disappointing effort tonight.

I know every team "looks" bad when they're losing, especially big, but it sure seemed like a lot of going through the motions out there. I'm gonna need more energy on Sunday.

Reinsdorf is happy. It means the Bulls get one more game of 20k tickets sold in this series.

Why is Adam Shefter covering a basketball game?

Everyone said rondo being out would hurt

And the reality is that rondo being out hurt.

Omg.


Get well, Ray John.

I don't think he would have made up this loss. Butler sucking for 3 quarters had very little to do with Rondo being out. He just missed shots.

Maybe. I disagree though. You need the spark to explode the bomb.
