Wow.....and people say refs love the Heat That missed goaltending cost us a bucket, and Posey's technical foul made no sence. But anyways where playing decent, Shaq is dominating, the only thing holding him back is those bullshit fouls.
i missed the whole first half because i was at my confirmation. can anyone tell me some of the important things and highlights so far.
Well, everything is going Chicago's way. Wallace has gotten away with 3 little ***** flops and Sefolosha is really bothering Wade who can't get anything going. I think posey needs to get the ball and start hitting some threes. Also, Hinrich is in foul trouble but we aren't doing anything.
Fell behind way too early and looked decent considering it was the first game on the road this post-season. The refs were a joke when it came to Shaq but now we NEED to win game 2. Walker was great and Wade came through. We battled through the calls and hopefully we get a different crew next time.
I can't stand the Heat (aside from Wade) but there were WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too many charging calls against them. The goaltending call on Thomas was kind of hard to call at such a fast face, so I don't blame them for that, but some of the offensive calls were pretty questionable, especially Shaq's last foul. Either way, I called the Bulls in 7 for this series, and it's looking good so far. As for some of Heat fans complaining about calls, your team was getting these same type of calls all of last year...and I wouldn't be surprised if they start getting them again this year when another officiating crew comes into town.

Anyways though, you guys should be encouraged IMO that you guys almost had a chance to win the game despite all the bad calls.
Bulls played great defense the charges were fair the heat players were getting frustrated and tried to run through them. It was a good game Miami really battled hard even though Shaq and Wade were in alot of foul trouble.

We can't buy anything right now. Stupid fouls on Shaq and Wade not hitting his shots.</div> Did you watch the game or just focus on fouls? Starting to sound like Shaq.
I watched the game, you conveniently left out everything else I said about how the Heat needed to take advantage of Hinrich's foul trouble etc. but good try though.
I also left out your whinge on Wallace flopping. Cry all you want about fouls. Karma is a bitch isn't it.
Plain and Simple the Bulls outplayed the Heat stop blaming officials... It was only game 1 anyway alot more basketball to be played.
not that i'm blaming the officials (although there were some questionable calls), if wade and shaq stay out of foul trouble, we'll do a lot better. plus, wade's just gotta get his head into the game.
both teams were called for charges. the refs really didnt call the game in anyones favor. the bulls adjusted and the heat didnt.
There were questionable calls. No doubt about that. But don't try to shift focus from the game by blaming them. Miami lost because they were outplayed by Chicago. I got the Bulls in 7 (maybe 6).
The calls on O'Neal were spot on all night, but not some of the ones on Wade or Hinrich. I didn't see how Wade or Hinrich got to that point. Problem for Kirk was that fourth foul where he basically did that out of frustration. Shaq was elbow swinging all night and cried like a child when the calls didn't favor him. Especially that last call when he was called for a blocking foul against Nocioni. He had a foot in the circle, there's no need for him to cry about it because the refs made the right call. Just get ready for the next game. Neither team played to their full strength. Thing is we have more depth so it was ours for the taking last night. All-in-all I thought it was a good game anyway.
it is the fouls fault that we lost IMO. do you honestly think that if shaq and wade were NOT in foul trouble that we would have lost? they would have played more minutes, more aggresively, and have ahd a bigger impact on the game.

Quit making excuses. When Shaq went out, the Heat went on a big run. But in the end the Bulls outplayed the Heat. Just look forward to Game 2
