Freethrow alert

[Supporter]

Rose had 0 freethrows in the 1st game, look for him to get atleast 10 and get our guys in foul trouble!!

Couldn't agree more with this. It will be game 2 in Orlando all over again.... Quick to blow the whistle on their end and they'll swallow the whistle on our end.... Hopefully we play well enough to overcome it...

That first game was already terrible especially in the first half it's just that Rose was so damn passive with Teague 10 feet off of him and Smoove and Al waiting for him in the paint. Smoove had 2 fouls on him, Al picked up 3 questionable ones and Zaza had 2 in 38 seconds before the first half was even over and they were all ticky tack fouls while we were driving to the hoop, going up for rebounds with position and getting plowed by screens with nary a call. It got better in the 2nd half when the refs decided to swallow the whistles for both teams and reward us with some of the most obvious makeup calls ever like Joe's "and 1" after the Smoove "flagrant 1". All I can hope for is fair officiating, give Rose his as long as you call him on riding Teague's body on his drives too.

The very last thing that they would want to see is us up 2-0 going back to Atlanta. We talk about the fact that we have not won a 2nd round game since we played the Bulls many years ago. Have the Bulls won a 2nd round game since MJ left? This team may have shot their wad in the reg. season.

Marvin has to play better on Deng.

Teague needs to give the same effort or more on Rose.

These are the keys to their team.

I am definitely worried about a Wade scenario where the refs just keep sending Rose to the free throw line if someone so much as breathes on him.

If Hawks win tonight, count it as all being over. And, we all know that can't happen.

Imagine, Hawks up 2-0 and heading home. Wow!

What can the Bulls do? Rose has said his ankle is fine and "turf toe" was fine for the first game.

They have no excuse. This is live or die time for Chicago and they are @ home. Don't expect

any funeral for the Bulls.

Too many things riding on the outcome of tonight's game. Right now, I gotta believe that this

Atlanta Hawk team is better than the Chicago Bulls. Disregard the regular season records.

That was then. This is now. We've been there, done that in the playoffs. Bulls haven't.

:saythat:

GO HAWKS!!!
