And, just because I can't resist, Vinny needs to learn how to use his timeouts better.  If they Bulls have a TO with two seconds left, they have a chance.

Damn.  Tough loss.  And tough shot by Allen at the end -- Noah had a hand in his face.

Still, Boston has had to work its ass off just to be at 1-1 going back to Chicago.  A much better series than most of us thought it would be.

Garnett is good.

This still sets up very well.

Bulls are 28-13 at home, plus what...14 wins in the last 16 home games?

As long as they don't have a letdown after letting that last one slip away...I still say they're in good shape.
I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

I thought the Bulls would get wiped out in game 2 by a more motivated Celtics team. To my surprise the Bulls were in it all the way. I like how this sets up with the Bulls coming home.

It's 1-1 and it's pretty safe to say the Bulls are completely unafraid of the Celtics. I honestly think they have this series.

KD continues to do great work over on YAHOO!!! Good call on Salmons taking too many shots in this series. That and Vinny's timeout management are really my only gripes in what has been a great couple of games.

Bulls lost on bounces off the boards.  It's that simple.  Sure the calls were still a little one sided but not as bad as game one.  Sure Ray Allen finally hit his shots but wasn't even close to the shit storm Gordon brought down.  Oh, and Perkins is a bitch!  Talkin smack to skinny lil twig Noah and then backing away from him?  Lame.  To lose on the road after playing that good of a game, the next two at home should be a lot easier to take for the Bulls.

KD points out that Vinny The Negro has been bereft of timeouts in each of the first two games at the end of regulation.  This guy's a genuine tardbucket, I'm afeard.  It's his presence that makes me wonder how some of y'all can be so optimistic that the Bulls have this series.  Sure, there were only 2 seconds left after Jebus Shuttleworth hit the winning shot yesterday, but inbounding the ball at halfcourt after a timeout with two seconds is a world apart from the helter-skelter, baseline inbounds pass and subsequent 80 foot desperation shot by Tyrus that they had to settle for.  Seems to me the Bulls are winning in spite of this dumbfuck.
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.

Yeah, I just this'd myself.  So what?

Watching that fires up so much anger. What a fucking moran. And I don't even like bassetball that much. I've been watching this series though, FWIW
