Sick of the Celtics??? Because of 1 championship in the past 2 decades? The Celts were HORRIBLE for years and had serious bad luck (reggie lewis, lenny bias, getting screwed out of tim duncan, and getting screwed out of 1st draft pick 2 years ago).
LOVE LIVE THE C's!

Do you know how bad KG must be right now? This series must be eating him alive inside.

[MTK]

If KG was playing the series might not have been this good. C's probably would have won it already.

[dmek25]

there are rumors Garnett might try to play in game seven. and whats up with Rondo? all of a sudden he turns into a dirty player? i guarantee if the 7 foot Miller smacked him the face, in the same situation, there would have been a suspension. and what he did to Heinrich was down right dirty. but you are right. what a series

Exactly, that is why it is killing him. I love Rondo, I think he is in the spotlight right now and has let the emotion of the game get to him but he really is not a dirty player.

Bulls only dominated in the 90's winning 3 in a row twice. But that is it! Boston has been a whole heck of a lot more dominate since the 50's. Unless you only account for the 90's you can't be "sick" of the Bulls. If you really want to says Bulls have been dominant in the NBA you MUST be comprehensive and Celtics have shown they can win consistently throughout time.

This was mostly a zing at Quake.

But, I'm a huge Celtic fan since the mid-70s so I know the history very well. My son's godfather is from Chicago and a huge Bulls fan. Needless to say listening to the Jordan and Bulls crap for the better part of a decade got pretty old. I can't stand Jordan either.

Although I do like these Bulls, Rose, Gordon and Heinrich are a great backcourt. They find a big man (Stoudamire??) and they'll be a force for several years.

Regardless what happens in game seven it is better to be a Bulls fan, their future is much brighter. The Celtics bet the house on one season and got a Championship, they may have gone back to back this year if injuries had not killed them by next year they will be to old to do anything. It was fun while it leasted now back to reality. =(

Can we have Al Jefferson back now?

1- Rondo is NOT a dirty player! The play on Miller, while rough, was not suspension worthy. He did not intentionally try to hurt Miller, you could tell by the way he came in, and the follow through. If it was accidental by miller, I would expect the same results.
2- Rondo was tossed to the floor in one of the first 2 games (can't remember which) and no suspension was tossed out. This is the playoffs. Regular season, maybe a suspension would be handed out in both cases, but not the playoffs. You have to do a Dwight Howard to get suspended.
3- Garnett has had waaaay too many rumors. A TON of people have already said he's done. I would imagine he would show up for the Cavs series if he is going to at all. That might be worth a career ending injury to him, but not the Bulls. The rumor is that he will suite up, possibly for motivational reasons, not play.

and what he did to Heinrich was down right dirty. but you are right. what a series

I must have missed something, please inform me of what Rondo did to Heinrich.

[dmek25]

1. that was not accidental. he made absolutely NO play on the ball.
2. getting knocked to the floor is one thing. getting free bridge work by someone other then your dentist is another
3. i agree with this. just more drama
4. Heinrich boxed Rondo out. Rondo then decided to grab him by the arm, and toss him into the scorers table. no other way to stick up for him in this situation. it was a dirty play

man screw boston and not only throwing him into the table but also throwing an elbow at him, WTF? the first incident although tough foul looked intentional but this was just over the top. He should have been suspended
