    Only watched part of the 2nd half but wow the Cavs looked awful especially in the 4th. Lebron bricking shots, making bad passes, others taking wild 3's. Awful play calling and bad shots. Bulls D was probably good but still.

    Rockets are pathetic, can't beat the Clippers in Houston without CP3 lol. Such a talented team but they always fall short of expectations in the playoffs.

    Blake Griffin has arrived. 2nd straight triple-double, 3rd in the playoffs. DJ was owning Dwight in the 2nd half. Jamal, Rivers and Barnes showed up big.

    Clippers in 5 or 6.

    Clippers vs. GS in the Western Conference Finals sounds good to me :cp3:

    CP3 vs. Curry would be handles galore... If only Kyrie...

    I already don't know who to root for in the west, that series would even be harder.

    if chicago doesn't win this round, they'll literally never win against lebron.

    they desperately need to take advantage of JR's absense and take the next game as well. can't really see the Cavs beating Bulls with Lebron, Kyrie & shumpert

    been so long since I seen a fully healthy Bulls squad in the playoffs tho :beautt:

    Great win, now we have to come out and try to take game 2 while the Cavs are still shorthanded. JR will help but without Love they are just a really small team. Gasol should have a great series as long as the Cavs continue playing small ball.

    Interesting report here if true, Bulls management apparently can't wait to get rid of Thidodeau and this is his last run if this story is accurate.

    *edit*

    a little more info on this.

    Still 4 minutes left but looks like Memphis might hold on. This series is a lot more interesting now if they hang on.

    Warriors don't take many L's at home, so the Grizz have to feel like they accomplished something going home tied 1-1.

    I like both these teams a lot more than the Clippers and Rockets, wish this was the western finals.

    Conley is a beast. He willed them to a W tonight. As far as Thibs goes, its hard to tell what's real and what's not. The story itself isn't really new, but seems to come up whenever the Bulls are in the national spotlight. Local media is split here as far as not knowing whether he will be back or not. Gar & Pax continue to say it's not an issue, so hopefully they can work it out.

    The Grizzles are the best defensive team in the NBA. This could end up being a seven game series if Conley stays healthy. I can see Memphis pulling this series out. Golden State doesn't have the size to compete with them.
