Are they just bitching? Or do they actually have a legitimate gripe?

The Bulls shot three more FTs than the Celtics.  Big deal.

Well, it's not the best quality, but it needed to be posted.

I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

I think this one has to be the fault of Vinny Del Dumbfuck: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/basketball/nba/04/27/gordon.ap/index.html

I can blame VDN for anything (the Bulls not having actual offensive sets, stubbing my toe this morning, being out of milk, swine flu, etc.), but I'm not sure where this one is coming from.

KG jackassery aside, I can't get over how awesome Joakim Noah has been in the playoffs.  The dude is an absolute monster.

This.  He did the same at Florida as well.  I don't know if someone can be "clutch" and all of that, but it seemed like he raised his play in all of the big games at Florida and now he is doing the same with the bulls as well.

I liked at the end of the game when Neil Funk and Stacey King were essentially calling him a jackass.

How could Rondo's foul on Miller not be a flagrant?  The guy wasn't even in the same area code as the ball and practically knocked Miller's tooth out.  Isn't the whole point of the flagrant foul to police against the mugging that that little punk pulled off?

I felt bad for Miller, but then my empathy expired the second he couldn't even hit the fucking rim on the second free throw (like Pierce did a few moments later).  Now I wish he had been decapitated.
I think he's more of the appendix of Desipio.  Yeah, it's here and you're vaguely aware of it, but only if reminded.  The only time anyone notices it is when it ruptures (on Weebs in the video game thread).  Beyond that, though, it's basically useless and offers no redeeming value.

Miller may have been putting on a show for the cameras, but he sure seemed to be  dazed from that clock-cleaning so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on the free throws.

In the end it came down to Pierce hitting every single damn one of those fadeaways. Is there anything the Bulls can do to stop that? Should they have started double-teaming him after Allen and his shooting ability fouled out?

Agree that Noah has been great, but Rajon Rondo is a beast. Rose will be better than him in a few years, but right now Rondo is dominating these games, and he's doing it with about a 5-1 assist/turnover ratio. Unbelievable.

Save yourself the trouble and watch TNT. Funk and King are the Hawk and (insert random asshole) of basketball. I can't stand them.
