I'd be very surprised if Thibs is working for the Bulls next season. All mail is that he's gone.

Yeah

He just can't (or won't) settle his differences with the management. As much as I love this guy and want him to be our coach for as long as he coaches, I find it difficult to blame GarPax on this one. It will suck to lose such a hardworking guy though.

This Chris Copeland story is just weird. Best of wishes to him of course, but Thabo and Pero arrested for staunching and obstructing police? weird.

That sucks...more importantly though chicago really needs to figure out if rose is their savior going forward...

On behalf of the Boston Celtics, I would like to invite you to confirm Brad Stevens as this season's COY.

Chicagp should scam some desperate team into giving up some young developing stars for Rose
MVP Rose is gone.

 

[Anil]

the spurs jump to 2nd place with their usual post all-star surge...

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Pumped for the playoffs.

pumped for the playoffs.

go celtics!

 

[Johnners]

Really hoping Indy & the Pelicans secure the 8 seeds for each conference. It'll be a tough ask for the Pelicans though, will have to beat the Spurs because there's no way Westbrook is losing to the TWolves.

 

[NUFAN]

Pretty funny that the Knicks suck at losing when it actually would do them good. The Wolves could easily have the last 3 number 1 picks even if Bennett plays like he was drafted at 31.

I hope the Pels get 8th. Davis needs the playoffs.

The Southwest division! Unbelievable.

Poor Clippers. Busting a gut to get into the 3rd seed only to wind up facing the Spurs.

 

[Anil]

the warriors and the rockets should go through fairly comfortably, i am not so sure about the other matchups in the west...

 

[andruid]

Rondo to the Cavs has not worked it seems.

 

[Anil]

why would the cavs want rondo when they have two terrific ball handlers?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Obvious Mavs typo

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Steph Curry with the shot boi

 

[duffer]

Nice

The last 2 minutes of the Bulls 4th quarter were frustrating as ****. I knew our D had fallen off but I didn't think I'd see this in the playoffs. This kind of defense will not be anywhere near good enough against the Cavs.

 

[NUFAN]

Thankfully we have Clips vs Spurs. The other 7 series have been one-sided (so far).

Of course if Bucks or Pelicans didn't lose game 3 in OT, it would look a little different.
