Chicago Bulls @ Atlanta Hawks, Los Angeles Lakers @ Dallas Mavericks :: 2011 NBA Playoffs Day 21

Ap-201105050056034125458_medium

Down 0-2 headed and headed to Dallas.

The playoffs continue, so JUMP!

Star-divide

Day 19 Rewind

See Preview

The Bulls evened the series with a convincing win behind a very nice outing from Joakim Noah. Man what if the Warriors took Noah back in the 2007 NBA Draft instead of Brandan Wright? That would've solved a lot of issues.

Surprisingly the Lakers dug themselves a very deep whole with a second straight home loss to the Mavericks. Who would've thought?

Chicago Bulls @ Atlanta Hawks

Blog a Bull vs Peachtree Hoops

4pm | ESPN

The Hawks are playing some great hoops in the playoffs. I expect that to continue tonight in Hotlanta. It's fun to see Jamal Crawford aka JC scoring a ton. Let's go JC!

Prediction: Hawks by 7

LA Lakers @ Dallas Mavericks

Silver Screen and Roll vs Mavs Moneyball

6:30pm | ESPN

The Lakers haven't impressed me all that much this season aside from their nice start back in November/ December, but they aren't this bad and I'm not ready to count them out yet. Trust me, Kobe Bryant is not a happy dude right now. 

Prediction: Lakers by 10

The only way I get this is..

I don’t hate Kobe. I don’t hate Laker players persay (well except Fisher but thats warrior related)

But I HATE HATE HATE HATE Laker Fans.

And there is a distinction.

But hey, you know exactly what all the Faker fans will do when they get eliminated. Pull out there old Bulls jerseys. “Nah Bro, I’ve always been a Bulls fan, since before Jordan! I never left. Derrick Rose, soo sick, Bro!” Lame Laker fans

Boston's coming back

Paul Pierce just needs to bring back the gross facial hair.

Plus in the realm of a-holes in NBA, the rondo/garnett combo is king.

by tafkasam on May 6, 2011 8:59 AM PDT up reply actions  

I think youth, speed, hunger and talent will prevail against the grit, talent and determination of Garnett and Rondo. I mean, Wade and LeBron on the same team, both playing like their lives depend on it? I expect them to keep it up, at least for this series. They may get complacent eventually, though.

We had super-dre.

But even though, Andris was a productive good player then, it’s another case or drafting need over best player? Cause having 2 legitimate sized centers would have been bad

i don't think Noah was rated that highly back then.

Ainge is probably gonna need to hire a personal bodyguard after this series is over.

Ray Allen, Pierce, KG are closing their careers out. If their championship window isn’t closed then it’s pretty small. Chicago is young, talented, disciplined & the Miami big-3 are building experience together.
