Round 2 Game 1 | Cavs vs. Bulls | May 4, 2015 | 7:00 PM ET

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
This was the best the Bulls have played. I'm not sure we have the firepower to edge them out, as evidenced by tonight when we could just not finish out runs. My hope is that fatigue starts to set in and they don't make shots like they did tonight. Having J.R back will help a lot, but we need to be much more sharp Game 2 or I'm afraid this is going to go to south quick.
 
I feel horrible for LeBron. Comes back and places so much pressure on himself when he's not the same player he used to be.

I feel for him but that was one of his all time worst performances in the playoffs, IMO. I hope he doesn't try to overcompensate next game.
 
Biggest Cavs killers in this game, ranked:
1. Gasol
2. Butler
3. Rose

Everyone else on their team is largely invisible. I can live with Rose's points because it's not sustainable. Butler's is irksome, but it's Gasol they really need to fix their defensive game plans for next game.
Realize that a huge part of why Gasol is at the top of that list is Rose. If he's gimpy the rest of the series, Gasol won't have it so easy.
 
Gotta shoot better from 3 the rest of the series. Bulls didn't make us shoot 28%, we just didn't hit open shots.

From where? JR Smith doing what he did is a big reason we couldn't shoot tonight. I'm really curious how he's escaping what he deserves around here. That moment of selfishness lost us this game tonight.
 
Can't wait to see how Chicago plays with one day of rest playing their starters 40+ minutes.

Thibs is an awful coach.
 
If LeBron deferes to Kyrie in the 4th, we win. Point blank. And why the fuck won't he fucking post up?? I mean.. I cannot believe how frustrating this is. LeBron giveth and he taketh.. he is the biggest enigma to ever play this game IMO.
 
I've never seen LeBron look so vulnerable, sluggish, and lacking explosion in a playoff game.

Hope he's okay. I am not going to pile on him. Shitty game, but oh well, let's bounce back.

I figured we were going to split these two anyways.
 
Cavs lose, haters win ... its still early, eat it.
