I thought Hoiberg was going to cry here, maybe he did after he quickly bailed after the question.

It's frustrating enough to see the Bulls not even making Game 6 competitive, but it gets even worse when you consider that GarPax are probably sitting there thinking "This is good, everything's going to plan, the future is bright".

Pathetic... Taj would've been helpful in this series. All of RoLo's relievers are dumbfucks. I thought Wade will be somewhat like he was in the Hornets series last season but he looked flat and old. Defense is fucking trash and that include Butler's.

Thought it might've been Celtics in 6, but I didn't think we would look this bad in an elimination game....at home. Disgraceful showing but yeah GarPax would be happy about it and carry on like it's all good.

What's crazy is that the current Bulls are worse than the Vinny Del Negro era Bulls, and I'm sure all of us Bulls fans remember how dysfunctional and chaotic that was :facepalm2:

the venom coming from the bulls falls. yes good.

good series for the celts. stevens made the lineup adjustment and the bulls couldn't counter.

This was a strange series, was expecting the Celtics to keep their home court advantage but they blew it out of nowhere. Still, another prediction turned out to be right lol

I wonder what would have happened if the Bulls had a healthy Rondo... could have kept their momentum going at home.
