Well, off to watch Wrestlemania now.
Hope it's not as horrible as this fucking shit show.

 

[flop]

So people are legitimately pissed about winning a close one to the 76ers. WHO CARES! This game won't mean jack shit come April. Cavs played poorly. It happens.

another WIN, another game afforded to rest starters down the stretch.

Eyes on the prize.

Atlanta is unavoidable most likely.

What stretch? If Chicago wins their next game and we lose Thursday, they are tied with us for the second seed. This rest the starters and coasting BS needs to end and it needs to end by stopping excuses for play like this on our home court. It gets players hurt and destroys team morale.

All credit for this win goes to Fred. He put that jinx on em. Clutch jinx. Ice water runnin through his veins.

Great defense down the stretch. We needed that kind of experience of a really close game for the playoffs. Yeah, it's the 76ers, but they have some good players and there is no reason to think we should have blown them out, as was probably expected.

 

[SVC]

All the contenders have been having games like these.

Of course, they've had them when sitting their entire starting line-ups.

Not excusing anything, just for factual purposes:

The Cavs have a full 2 game lead over the Bulls. If that scenario happens, we will still have a full one-game lead.

We also likely hold all tie-breakers, even if the Bulls beat us when we play them, we likely will hold division and conference tiebreakers.

Effectively Chicago needs to make up three games with 7 remaining to surpass us.

This is the kind of dogging it effort that could be a factor in losing the 2 seed. Would you rather have home court advantage against the Bulls? The Sixers had some in and outs and missed FTs or they would've won this thing.

LOL the play we ran out of the timeout is Smith throwing the ball in the air

Might have been our best executed offensive play all game.

How did you figure that out? They are 2.5 games behind us.
