D-wade looked exhausted on the bench.

So here's an interesting question - if we do advance, does Amir start playing again, or do Horford, KO, and JJ stick with all of the big minutes?

IT settling for too many 3's.  Attack the basket.  That's what separated us in the 3rd quarter of game 3.

Ok, IT has been doing well with his shot selection so far, but these dumb pull-up threes in transition and early in the shot clock have to stop. Get back to getting others involved and letting the offense come to you, not forcing it.

Seems like this quarter has been going on since yesterday.   Come on C's -- finish it strong!

I'd try either Jerebko or Green again. Amir+Al isn't a great matchup against Gortat+Morris
I'm bitter.

Yep. And they foul a lot with a small rotation. So press it !

Would be nice if the Celtics can close this half out with a little 6-0 or 8-0 run..

Unfortunately they will probably have their lead cut to 2 before the half..  :P

Yep, though I'd go JJ over Green due to his size. Mirotic isn't taking advantage of his height, but I think Morris would kill us by posting up Jae or Green.

This is ridiculous how much they're bailing out Butler with these calls. He was completely out of control on that last drive.

Amazing what can happen when you don't have Rondo around to torch the Celtics guards

Too many jumps shots.

Bulls feasting by going to the hoop. Down 11 now and everyone is in foul trouble.
