Round 1 Game 3 | Cavs vs. Bulls | April 22, 2010 | 7:00 EST TNT

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Showed some heart to get back in it, but a great shooting night by the Bulls...

I said before the game that this was their chance to win one. They won't be so fortunate in game 4. You cannot expect them to shoot 50% from the floor again and for Captain Kirk to shoot 4-4 from three for 27 points. But with that said, although there were some questionable calls, lets keep it classy and not blame the refs. Six more ft's for the Cavs than the Bulls, take the high road.
 
You guys are being homers, seriously. We played a horrible game and we only lost by 2.

AP pass the ball? he only had 3 seconds...

MB caused us to lose? does MB shoot freethrows? play defense? tell Lebron to jack up 3s? Tells the team to jack up 30+ threes? no
I'd take LeBron from 80ft over Parker from 40.

I understand what you're saying, but if Mike Brown doesn't have any control over what is going on out there on the court, what good is he?
 
I really kinda hope the Cavs lose tommorow too... They need to face some fucking adversity.
 
Bulls need to thank Stern and his crew for this one, no way they earned it down the stretch. That was some of the biggest BS from an officiating crew down the stretch. Oh well, that's the NBA.

The Cavs stunk tonight, but that charge against Lebron did end up severely affecting the outcome of the game.
 
Was West on the bench for that last possession? We should have had the quickest guys out there.....Parker was sllloooooowwwwww.
 
Can I ask why people are blaming Mike Brown and Anthony Parker? BS, Mike Brown did nothing for us to lose, and Parker shot a half court shot, not like he can or any player can make that shot on cue.
 
The only blame Mike Brown should have gotten is that stupid lineup he put up in the third that ballooned the lead of Chicago to 21 and the fact that he had Parker over Moon in crunch time. That is all.
 
I love how the Mike Brown apologists always go "how is this MIKE BROWN'S fault? The team played terrible defense and shot 100 3s!"

Uh... Who exactly do you think is responsible for getting them to do these things? Do you understand what Mike Brown's role is? Who is supposed to stop the team from shooting 45 3 pters?

LeBron never gets superstar calls, especially down the stretch. People who think otherwise are drugged up illegally...
 
The whole team suck ass tonight.....but if this game doesn't show you how shaky it is to have Mike Brown to be the HEADCOACH in the last 1 mins of a playoff game.....i dont know what will....he is just horrible in-game....if there's "choking" in coaching.....then Mike Brown will be the Chris Webber of all coaches......just sad.

You'll have some missed calls throughout a game, but there were a couple missed calls or calls that went the wrong way on LeBron coming down the stretch. It never should have come to that though. If the Cavs could shoot 70% on their free throws, they would have won the game. If they didn't play like complete garbage for 3 quarters, they would have won the game. I can't put this on the refs, but they certainly missed some calls down the stretch that hurt the Cavs.

That said, this was pretty much Chicago's best shot at winning a game, and they only won by one point. It's going to take a game like this to get the Cavs more focused.
