  • All of the United States Except Miami vs. Miami – Game 4

    You have to figure that if the Bulls can ever actually hit a two-foot shot, their chances for victory go way up.  We’ll see what happens.

    For now let’s give it up for Chris Bosh for not being totally irrelevant in this series.

    Her-cu-les! Her-cu-les!

      I would be happy to see the Bulls win.

      (dying laughing) at the Bosh caption. I second the “hit a two foot shot” analysis. Bulls FG% has been so bad the past two games. If they can decide to not shot the ball like Koyie Hill then they will win this game.

      LeBron misses on the drive to the basket so it’s an automatic foul on Deng. Miami doesn’t need the refs help.

      Whatever contact may have occurred it didn’t cause him to miss the layup. They never replayed it so I never saw much contact at full speed.
