<div class="quote_poster">XSV Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Wow the Heat made it interesting at the end. Funny how nobody whines about bad officiating when its going their way. Just ask Jon Barry how sh*tty the officiating was today.</div> The charging calls were horrible, but everything else was on point for the most part. Calls were missed on both sides. I love how the Heat players act like every single posession where there is even a little bit of contact should result in a foul in thier favor. The Shaq foul (at the end) was questionable because his other foot was a little inside the line, but the Gordon pump-fake contact shot was a questionable call as well, since they decided to let that one go instead of calling it like usual. Some random thoughts: - Antoine "Shimmy" Walker was actually a little more efficient than usual today, which surprised me. I expect him to come out gunning the next game (because he's now more confident), only this time he'll be missing more than half of his shots. I hope he continues to take forced 3 point attempts. Hopefully, the shimmy will not disappoint! - Wade was amazing to watch in the 4th quarter. Some of the calls against him early on (the charges) were questionable (seems to be the recurring theme) but he played great down the stretch. - Tyrus Thomas is an athletic beast! That sequence of the two blocks plus the alley oop was simply amazing. Isiah Thomas is an idiot. - This Bulls team is great to watch. They play good team defense, they have a variety of guys to score with, they have good one-on-one defenders, they're very deep and they have a solid coach. I won't be surprised if they make it to the NBA Finals. - Luol Deng, Gordon, and Nocioni are amazing. Out of the 3, I personally love watching Gordon the most. He is an amazing athelete. Did anyone see him fake Payton out of his shoes with that up and under? Loved it. I predict a Bulls victory in game 2. Hopefully there'll be less charging calls.

ABC Theme of 2007: RIGHT NOW! *annoying trumpets* Well, atleast looking at the (lead) Pussycat Doll is better then looking at Rob Thomas.
<div class="quote_poster">Karma Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">he Shaq foul (at the end) was questionable because his other foot was a little inside the line, </div> That's the rule though, it goes for both teams, if any part of your body is in the restricted area its a blocking foul. Yeah and I hate ABC too.

Is there anyway to buy the rights to that theme song? If I ran a local broadcast, I'd be playing that song all the time.
I knew Chicago would take it! So far, the teams I've predicted to win the series have won their 1st round games. Lets hope I stay perfect today
The Pussycat Dolls songs are always on, gets annoying like everyone else said. Hopefully Kirk gets going next game. Didn't mind Thabo out there though.
man I didn't even know this game was on today. I thought it was on tomorrow. I just woke up and see the headline on Yahoo 'Off and Running' I am pissed I missed it (not that it was on TV) but glad we won.
Shaq is bitchin <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">He accused the Bulls of flopping and said they had "lot of help out there." "It's just unfortunate that people fall for that," said O'Neal, who scored 10 points in the first quarter before the fouls piled up. "I'm used to just outplaying somebody and just playing hard, but I guess that's what you got to do to stop Shaq." </div> <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">"My intention was to come out and be myself, until Eddie Rush derailed me," O'Neal said after fouling out.</div>
<div class="quote_poster">MrJ Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">What did Tyrus Thomas do? I was out playing ball so I missed the game.</div> He had a block on Gary Payton and then Walker on the same possession, and then went down on offense and got an alley-opp from Duhon. Didn't play that much for anything else.
