Nope, time to panic.. last night was a must win. Reports saying IT will miss game 2, going down 0-2 heading to Chicago, stick a fork in us.
People were sleeping on Chicago around here, I started a thread saying we should be concerned and people thought it was a great matchup in the C's favor. Not sure how that's the case when they have easily the best player on either team, one of the best 2's in NBA history, a significant advantage on the glass, and a PG who would love nothing more than to beat the team who quit on him.
The team looked lethargic when they should have manned up and played their hearts out for IT. It was really a sorry showing.
Oh wait but we were #1 in the Eastern Conference.. now we see why rest is more important than seeding or home court. Ha speaking of which I started another thread saying how rest was more important, and we should go that route and got reprimanded. "We need home court for the ECF vs. the Cavs" last time I checked we need to get there first.
There's a reason why players rest, there's a reason why Pop has been doing it for years. Having strong legs is more important than seeding. I mean how important is a seed if you can't even get out of round 1?
