Bill Simmons called this on his podcast before the lottery! Haha, love it. Cavs get two top 4 picks in the worst draft ever, so hilarious. Kyrie is a good player but the rest are gonna be hit and miss. Hope Derrick Williams falls to 4, would be good to watch him and Irving go around.

Noah was decent, they basically ran the offence through him because Rose was shut out of the paint in the half-court game. Boxscore assessment there.

Yeah Bosh was pretty good but he can't rely on hitting fadeaways over defenders every game. Definitely the best game I've seen him play in a Heat uniform though.

Miami have been lucky in a way as they are yet to face a truly high powered offence this playoffs. Dallas would give both them and Chicago nightmares defensively, they are playing at such a ridiculously high and fluid level right now.
Question: Do you bring Caron back for the Finals, looks like he'll be healthy.

You can't bring back Caron for more than a few minutes as a role player unless you're down in the series AFAIC.

Yeah would agree with that. He's missed too much time to be really effective. Plus, why mess up chemistry when you don't have to? If he comes back and can get you 6 good fouls, then I say the Mavs should use him for that. But, we're not ready for all that talk yet. As a Mav fan, I (and countless others) have learned not take any series lead for granted. We have to finish off OKC first, then we can think about the Finals.

**** the Bulls D was amazing today, some of the shots they forced Bron into making were amazing. Shame he made most of them, really. Miami's series to lose from here. The way the double off the screen and funnel Rose to help and make him give up the ball is amazing in the fact that they recover so amazingly fast.

****** is such a throwaway term on an NBA court. Bigger things to worry about, what did the fan say to him? Should have just laughed and copped it.
Miami is just too athletic defensively, Bron is just an animal on both ends of the floor. Said it at the start of the season, Chicago need another guy who can create his own shot. They have one genuine scorer and shotmaker. JR Smith would be nasty on that team, even JRich if they can work something out. **** it, get Michael Redd for peanuts.
They need something, Bogans missing open threes more or less lost them that game. If he made them when the Bulls were rolling they would have been out of sight early. Trust Korver to miss all his open threes when it mattered too.
