****OFFICIAL 2012 NBA PLAYOFFS THREAD****
 

Great sports weekend with the draft and now the NBA Playoffs starting today

First Round Matchups Today:

76ers vs Bulls
Knicks vs Heat
Magic vs Pacers
Mavs vs Thunder

Sunday:

Jazz vs Spurs
Celtics vs Hawks
Clippers vs Grizzlies
Nuggets vs Lakers

Bulls\76ers on right now on TNT, Bulls up 13 going into the 4th quarter

Rose and Korver are hot, now up 20 with 6 minutes left. Hopefully this series gets better than this.

wake me up when the finals get here

TT you dumb ****. Why is Rose still in the game?! I hope it's not serious

I hate Derrick Rose. The dude shouldn't be there. Remember all of times you used to hear "there are better players on the streets than in the NBA and that's because they can't graduate high school." Well, Rose is one of those players. Why can't all of the other morons who are talented cheat their way to the top?

Looks like Wade has his hops back after some R&R the past few weeks.

Ouch that didn't look good for Rose.

Bulls are ****ed. At minimum that's an acl sprain.

My favorite Heat lineup on the floor.

Haslem & Amare T'd up over some jawing. Weak. NBA refs suck dick.

This Heat\Knicks series is going to be probably the best of the first round.

**** you

And down goes Derrick Rose. Miami's road to the championship might have just gotten a lot easier.

LEHGO KNICKS! Leh ****ing GO

Professional basketball doesn't care whether you graduate high school or college, it cares about your talent level. Rose's talent level is among the best players in the world.

You don't need a HS diploma anymore?

Oops missed King's thread. Mods can you merge this with his please? My apologies.

These fouls are ridiculous.

Bosh can't finish anything inside.

The last flop by Lebron, yeah. The rest were legit.

Hes one of the best basketball players in the world. He should be there.

LeBron = Shit eater...

I was moreso talking about the number of them not that they weren't legit.

3 on Amare
3 on Chandler

Knicks are done in game 1.

Cool. :thumb:

Ok now WTF?

Wow

**** Lebron.

Not flagrant, but dirty shit from Chandler.

That is BS call.

Lebron grabs his neck when he gets hit in the back.

Heck Lebron laid out someone a couple of weeks ago on a screen and there was no foul called

Lebron's was a clean screen. He didn't move forward and check the guy. Chandler initiated all the contact there. It wasn't flagrant, but it was 100% a foul.

Can we just skip the 2nd half and call game 1?

Knicks melting down

James is taking this shit over.

While I agree that Tyson leaned in so did Lebron against the Bulls. He clearly lowered his shoulder on Lucas.

**** LeBron! ****ing piece of ****ing mother****ing shit... He is a bitch... All the respect for that stupid ****er is GONE! ALL GONE! Hate that stupid ****er.

STFU

No YOU STFU! Hop off of Lebrons peen too.

Kentucky said HI!

Wow. Best smack ever. I was just hoping to play to seed. The Kentucky loss doesn't hurt at all.

Lebron is a sack of shit.

some of these Rose comments are reeruned.

Also - the Heat have lost once to the Bulls without Rose & once with Rose on the bench scoring 2pts.

Regular season Heat/Bulls doesn't matter. See last year's playoffs. kthanksbye

There's also a big difference between the Heat this year and last year.

The Bulls also figured out that they don't need Rose to beat the Heat. BIG difference.

I would but I can't seem to find LeBron in any of the 4th Quarter highlights... Shoooooot, Oh well.

These refs are horrible.

What's that?

Owned, bitch.

I seem to remember Lebron shuttin down Drose in the fourth. But my memory is foggy

Oh good for you... You found one shot, which most "MVP" players should be able to be automatic from... But no seriously, good for you. Perhaps you should get a medal?

But where are the other "4th quarter clutch" films? Just one? Oh dang, I'm sorry to hear that.

Eat shit, bitch.

Damn that is too bad for Shumpert. Hope he is ok and it is not a blown knee

if its not been posted

@NBCMiami BREAKING: Chicago Bulls PG Derrick Rose has torn ACL and MCL in left knee, will miss remainder of playoffs.

Get ****ing owned DaKCman.

Shit. Sucks for him. Hope he recovers well.

Give me my medal, bitch.

Lovely. This is a year Rose would love to forget. I hope this year was just a mirage and injuries don't plague the rest of his career, he's so talented. He had only missed three games prior to this season of hell.

If that is true then the Celtics have one more chance. :D

Ouch he got both of them. Bulls won't make it past the 2nd round now.

The Heat were gonna come out of the east with or without Rose unfortunately. No team in the east is going to outlast them in a seven game series if they are focused.

Oh and are you ignoring my other post?

We will see about that :harumph:

Bad news for D.Rose and the Bulls. Go Pacers!!

Nah, good job. I can dig up several vids of LBJ making clutch shots. But you know what? It doesn't matter for three reasons.

1. You were the one who claimed he hasn't made any. He has. You're wrong. I win.

2. It won't affect anything in these playoffs. The playoffs will write it's own story and hopefully Miami wins it all and shuts all the haters up. I win.

3. Since this game is a blowout and the draft is basically over I'm getting out of here and going to the bars early. I win.

Oh I'm going to ****ing rip the shit out of your ass if they don't win The Finals... Then you will say something along the lines of "Oh I'm just happy we made it this far!" like that bitch, ArrowheadHawk.

NBC Miami on twitter is saying that report about Rose was premature. His status is unknown.

God Damn, you're stupid.

WTF another Pacer fan!?

**** YOU

**** SPORTS

as a Bulls fan I don't want to see Rose hurt but we did go 26-7 without him. Not exactly like the team isn't good otherwise.

official. Torn ACL. ****

Hopefully this isn't the end of Rose. What a waste of talent that would be. Hopefully he comes back strong. It's just so odd that a player can go from missing only three games in his career to being a glass vagina this year. Please be just be a bad year.

To play professional basketball? Certainly not. You just have to be good at basketball...that's the job.

Unfortunately, it looks like Rose won't be playing any basketball for a while.

I don't think he's a glass vagina at all. Guy trains like a mother, has improved himself each year. It's just bad luck.

Has a long road back though.

It was a foul. I'm just more upset that the refs bought into his bullshit to make it a flagrant.

There is no place for flopping like that in the NBA. Flopping is one thing, but pandering to it is another.

LeBron is a little bitch. **** that guy.

I know he isn't injury prone. I just hope he doesn't end up being injury prone after this terrible season. Like you said, hopefully it was just a bad year and bad luck.
