NBA 2012, when does the season start?

[Ming]

OKC is now getting my hopes up...Hopefully they can do it.

It doesn't look like they will do it. They came out strong in first quarter but let Miami get back into it later in the game. I don't understand why when LeBron went down with an injury but continued to play that they did not go directly at him trying to score. He obviously had a bad leg or ankle and would find it hard to defend, but they did not take advantage of it. Now they have to do what no other team before has done - win three in a row.
Also, I really hate the 2-3-2 format. I see no real reason for it. So it will add one more day to finals? It goes so long anyway, one or two more days should not matter.

I half expected Lebron to pull a Paul Pierce in the wheelchair.

3/16 from 3 pt land. What was that about OKC?

[Al B. Sure!]

You just want the Thunder to lose because the Supersonics would win a championship somewhere else.



*so close*

they deserve to lose and I hope they burn in hell.

[H Tower]

**** you Lebron. The Bulls would have owned your ass if Rose hadn't been hurt.

[Demonbinder]

Crap!!!

Don't know if I agree with you though, HT. But it probably would have gone seven.

[Al B. Sure!]

In your dreams, Bulls fans. They wouldn't have gotten past the Celtics.

[rah]

Where do you come up with this stuff alby?

Now granted since it never happened so it's all just speculation, but the Bulls played the Celtics 4 times this year and beat them 3 of those games with the smallest margin was 7 points. The one game they lost was by only four points and Rose didn't play in that game. So the Celtics never beat the Bulls this year when Rose was Playing.

So keep laughing away.

[Imran Siddiqui]

4 times? Can we say small sample size?

[rah]

Yeah, but you can only go with what was played. It was a fact that the Celtics won 0 games when Rose was playing. How someone can say the Bulls wouldn't have gotten past them, based on that is quite a stretch.

Mike Miller did something that was above and beyond what he has ever done last night. Past does not predict future and in the case of basketball you see it all the ****ing time with predictions.

[rah]

Agreed, He was the one that was making the prediction, and I was the one saying that he had nothing to support it.
He even put an LOL next to it which implied that it would be silly for anyone to disagree with him. Yes, I give it high probability that he was just trolling the abundant Chicago posters here.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Y'all really do need some trolling sometimes
