Maybe people just expected too much of him. He can't really be expected to go one on one against James. But that was the situation that bernstein's wet dream set up. I'm sure if that game had gone down the same way with Vinny Del Negro in the coach's box, danny and Goff would be cackling about how inept Vinny was.

Who cares what these radio hosts say??

Missing three HUGE shots in the end of regulation.

One of the free throws to take the lead and two jumpers (One to take a 2 pt lead with less than a minute, the other flat out for the win)



Im not sure.

Everyone who posts in this forum except you, apparently.

I think he can. I mean LBJ is a great defender and has the size advantage but Rose can still get a shot. The first one was a good look that just rimmed out. The second one he lost control on the last dribble and never had a handle on the shot.

He's got to make those.

One of em anyway

OK.

I was so pissed at their last two possessions that I went to sleep instead of watching overtime.

It's on either the MVP or the Coach of the Year or both.

For someone who is so good at getting to the basket as his one true advantage in the matchup with James is speed it was a terrible way to try and score.

I agree with Rick.

That can't be the best shot you could come up with in 8 seconds.

It isn't, but I knew it was coming. This is the same play the Bulls always run in the closing seconds of a game. Rose never makes it either. He needs to drive and hopefully draw a foul, or drive and pass it to the open man. Settling for a long jumper when you are clearly gassed, is not going to win games.

OK.

They wouldn't be in that situation with Vinny in the coach's box. They'd be at home watching.

And JORR, are you really telling me that you think Vinny Del Negro is a competent coach?

And who the fuck cares what Bernstein or Goff thinks? Seriously. We're all talking amongst each other here. Fuck the radio hosts. They're not here. It's us. Sorry man, but I get really irritated when you drag the radio guys into every conversation.

It may have been the basis of the entire site...it isn't anymore.

Finally, I don't "drag" radio hosts into every conversation. But what's said on Chicago sports radio is the basis of this entire site. And I know you know that.

I'll partially agree with the "basis of the site" thing. But c'mon man. Unless there's something actually said that's pertinent to the conversation, constantly bringing them up just kinda makes you seem obsessive.
