Really?? Lol

I hate the way the Cavs are playing and it's 2-2 lol
Because you don't know basketball very well. The Bulls are sticking the Cavs on defense. Without love, the Cavs offense is predictable. The Bulls are missing shots they should make easily. The Cavs are making shots they shouldn't. I expect it all to regress to the mean.

Blatt's blunder just might of gotten him fired in the off season had the refs been looking

I'd be more sympathetic to the Bulls if Cleveland actually ran a play on Lebron's final shot but they got nothing to complain about. The refs correctly stopped the game to look to add time (and time needed to be added. The ball went out with over 1 second left). Yes, it sucks that teams use that to huddle and it should be changed but it didn't factor here. The Cavs didn't even run a play. Delladova looked for Lebron the whole way and Lebron just released as soon as the ref put the ball in play. Chicago just got beat.

That would have melted the internet. Blatt is so fucking lucky

You're an idiot lol

Cavs shot 20% from 3 and 38% overall but they are making shots they dont :laugh3:

The Cavs and Lebron can shoot worse than they are, plus Kyrie is hurt. And the Bulls still cant win when Rose plays a great game.

Yeah, you know so much Bengay lol

Rose had a great game. He was the only one scoring

Free time out was a big advantage. I think they need to change the rules. when viewing a play, players should have to stay on the court now by the coach to draw up a play.

Overall another ugly game and nice shot by Rose followed by a great shot by LBJ

Can we agree thought that that absolutely has to stop. By the way it was initially called that game probably should have been headed into overtime.

Yes Noah absolutely fouled him and it should have been called but it is not unusual for whistles to get swallowed at that point in the game.

When there are no timeouts left absolutely no one should ever be allowed to huddle up and draw a play.

Beautiful clutch shot by Lebron though.
If you agree that the referees should have called a foul on Noah as the commentators all agree but did not, why is there a problem when they themselves took time to look at the when the ball went out to know exactly what time to start the play?

still do understand why taj was covering deladova on the inbound pass. double LeBron and force someone else to make a play. nobody but lebron seemed to want the ball the possession before.

The positive we almost won with out Gasol. I hate to say this but I think the Cavs sneak by now unless we can win the next game.

Its just like the non call against Rose in the last game. Refs don't like to make calls with a few sec left. They want to player to win the game. Im k with it.

I can see if it is a little tic tac foul but when a player jumps on anothers body it should be called. What if that ball stays in bounds and Bulls pick it up?
Ohh well, Lebron won it either way.

Well if you want to nitpick the Cavs probably should have been down. Not sure what the rules are when you call a TO without having one but it may be a T and the opponent get the ball. Blatt clearly should have been called for the T. Walked out on the floor and called timeout. He got soooo lucky

He didnt call one, the assistant pulled him back before the ref could call it. When a player hacks another one driving it should be called, not nitpicking lol

Rose also got lucky with a banked 3 in the last game. So it could be 3-1 hobbling Cavs easily

He did call one. Pretty obvious he did.

Walked on the court and signaled Timeout.
