Official 2015 NBA Offseason Thread.

Bulls vs Cavs should be a great series. I'm not sure who would win and it could go to game 6 or 7. It will be on TNT tonight.

Love it.

I know it's only game 1 but the Cavs and the Rockets are in trouble.

The Bulls can beat Cleveland, but all analyst say the Cavs will still win the series despite no Kevin Love. The Problem with this, is that they're overlooking at the first round match ups. Cavs were against a young Celtic team with no star or franchise player and their defense wasn't so spectacular. The Bulls had to play a Milwaukee team that has an even better future with a rising stars in Giannis Antetokumnpo, Michael Carter-Williams, and of course will be the biggest factor for the Bucks offense, Jabari Parker. Bucks rank 2nd in Defensive stops, they were not an easy team to beat and provided the Bulls a better challenge for them to prepare to go against Queen James :P

Without cp3 :P

I think the Bulls are going to make up out of the East at this rate as I suspected before the series.

I told you not to underestimate the Bulls! Records don't mean jack sh!t, plus the Bucks had better defense than the Cavs

To be fair the Bucks last season were abysmal and had very little, or 0 playoff experience.

Bulls fans should be sending presents and gifts to the Celtics if they win this series.

That's 2x NBA champion Norris Cole, thanks

Yes, they tanked last season, but when Jason Kidd came in, he cleaned up the mess and turned the team around. Past seasons shouldn't be a concern at all, and now that they have the experience, they will be even deadlier than this season.

.....And he still sucks as a Point Guard.....

Grizzlies have been playing great on taking away home court, but I feel the series will stretch. I highly doubt Lebron will make the finals after 1 game as well. Friday will be interesting on how the Bulls will respond at home after having a slow start and grinding there will from preventing a blowout lost

If John Wall is out for the rest of the playoffs then we have 0% chance of winning anything.

@Seabas989: "If John Wall is out for the rest of the playoffs then we have 0% chance of winning anything."

No Wall? =(

Rockets would never get past the warriors even if we win this series by some miracle. Harden finally decided to show up in the playoffs last night which is nice i guess...

lolwat?

Warriors played a terrible game and were still in it. I mean, terrible game. They missed shit that they normally drain. They'll be fine.

Just saw Shaq falling on TNT. Shit is hilarious.

@Chutebox: "Warriors played a terrible game and were still in it. I mean, terrible game. They missed shit that they normally drain. They'll be fine."

Since when did you analyze basketball? I thought it was only football for you?

Even if you lose, you still have the Astros =)

@PSP107: used to a lot when the forum wasn't dead as shit.

@Chutebox:

You should contribute to the baseball forum too.

@PSP107: Don't care for baseball enough

Baseball can be fun but it can also be boring and put me to sleep literally.

All the NBA matchups in round 2 are tied 1 - 1 in the playoffs.

You either didn't watch the game or you're just hating. Warriors had a shit load of open shots that they just missed. Plain and simple.

@Chutebox Why are you the only sane Lakers fan?

And where is @Halftime?

Ya, dude was awesome even though he's a piece of shit egals fan.

Thanks for the chuckle.

So you're telling me a shooting team will lose when they have an off night? Brilliant stuff man. You should publish this in a book.

Its the truth man. I've seen it happen. When that happens your team better start attacking the rim or get closer to the rim and shoot it.

LOL agreed. Why are you even entertaining that waste MMMDICK? He's as bad as AHUGECACK.

Luck but glad he made it after the no call on lebron

Torn ACL just gaped it bad. This is shaping up to be a nice series. I'll be surprised if it doesn't go 7.

Refs really favored the Cavs tonight.... But it was very satisfying when Rose sunk that 3-Point shot in those last 3 seconds of the game. The Cavs faces were priceless and oh hell yeah it felt better than sex!

Yup, this series is a wrap. When we can't even guard fucking Austin Rivers then we have no hope.

@mems_1224:

Go Astros? =(

#MoreRingsThanDerrickRose

That was one ugly game. Thank you Paul Pierce because Randy Wittman sucks as a coach.

And lol at Atlanta for losing to a Walless Wizards.

I say that D. Rose's 3-Point shot is better and more sexier than Paul Pierce's basket

I felt Paul's was tougher.

Derrick's was more emotional

@mdk12345: Memphis is a sleeper. Who knows how far they'll go in the playoffs. They've been playing well this regular season with 55 wins and in the playoffs.

James lol

James!

lol Refs just bailed the cavs out big time.

Ya, that's crap. Needs to be changed.

@Chutebox:

lol, the NBA needs to change the free timeout rule.

While I agree that the Cavs got a break by the replay, there was a pretty obvious foul by Noah that didn't get called.

there was a lot of contact around rose on that last shot too. refs aren't going to make those calls with the game on the line in the playoffs. even for lebron
