Good times.
This is it. The Real Time commentary post for game seven. Got something to say? Say it here. Don’t know what the hell we are talking about? Who cares? Everyone knows what a basketball is. So just jump in and say: round! But only do shit like that during commercials. 30 minutes to tip off. Let’s get going.
I like how Ernie Johnson started the pregame with numbers for Kenny and Chuck. Nice to see once they went back to them Kenny took it from numbers to comparing a game 7 to a streetfight.
and are there chalupas if we get to 100?
I just want to start out by saying that based on the pic I found for this post, it really has nothing to do with the shoes.
If we get to 100 there will be Chalupas
Must be the socks, then, in Larry’s case.
He looks like he’s going skiing…
Earth Friendly Peat Pots seem like a good idea. Maybe I am gonna grow me a Bonnie Garden.
A John Thompson interview with Joakim Noah? TNT trying to kill this momentum before we even get to double digit comments?
John Thompson does interviews like a mummy comes out of a tomb.
I don’t know what that process is like, but, I do know he laughs LOUDLY.
mummies don’t think many things are funny, so my comparison may have been incomplete.
did he just say: whichever team plays well is going to win?
They always say that. I think it’s on some check list that they have got.
if we changed this into a NASCAR live commentary for the Richmond race tonight, do you think we’d get more people to comment?
We would in my neighborhood…
Also – where is Pierre, that traitor!
Kenny just said the Celtics don’t need KG, because they’ve gotten to this point…to where? Near Elimination?
They are the team they are, and if they score more points, they will win.
I’m hired!
holy crap – they just pull out every bullshit bingo word they can find.
this dropkick murphy’s song is pretty fuckin’ annoying.
How come PP never caught on as a nickname for Pierce?
Good thing Gordon got the memo to hit shots early and make sure this thing doesn’t become a Celtics blowout…
7-2 – it’s over
also – i am posting the score on my comments, so it is like history
PP doesn’t have enough to do with stabbings, which is the only good way a Paul Pierce nickname can happen.
9-4. I would call Pierce: Blade,then. P-Blade.
PP Blade?
Bulls certainly not fucking around early
11-5. No, P-Blade. And why don’t you get a gravatar?
13-9. That was a double dribble
dont know how to get a gravatar man
they dont call double dribble in the NBA unless allen iverson has possession.

16-11.
This crowd seems frustrated…like they’ve reverted back to like the 90s of rooting for Boston sports…
18-11. Why is Doc Rivers sweating like he’s strapped with dynamite?
18-11 – don’t bring up the 90’s
for some reason I love watching michael rappaport chuck those three’s…
18-16. Sloppy ass game
rose>
First “oh shit” moment with that Rose block of Scalabrine, though.
Agreed
bout time
wow, they already have the “where amazing happens?” commercial made up for this series?
wait until kirk “the white glove” hinrich checks in
18-18. P-Blade with a nice shot.
Bulls should just try to get Gordon a shot on every possession, why not?
Sorry guys, I don’t know a thing about basketball and I can’t watch it anyways :/
i cant wait for this series to be adapted into a made for tv movie, with michael rappaport playing the role of brian scalabrine.
that is insulting to everyone involved.
WRONG.
http://atdhe.net/6759/watch-chicago-vs-boston
it doesn’t appear insulting to anyone involved, just seems accurate…
Also, saying Rappaport playing Scalabrine is incorrect would be like saying ET playing Sam Cassell would be incorrect. Just blasphemous.
I just don’t think Scalabrine or Rappaport are very happy about themselves and their appearance. It’s accurate, but still insulting.
please. one is an actor and the other is in the nba, you’re telling me they don’t have unchecked egos?
actually sam cassell was miscast as ET. he found the role of a lifetime playing gollum in the LOTR trilogy.

I mean deep inside. Away from the paparazzi and free subs. They hurt.
vinny del negro to be played by adam billy baldwin, KG to be played by a random asshole who cant STFU.
lol@marbury. what a piece of trash
god damn, stephon, seriously give gordon an inch in this game? really? doc might want to switch that matchup up…
32-28 Bulls – you people need to preserve the history!
brad miller needs to step it up a little.
i am definitely not preserving history, that is your job
you know – the dollar menu at McDonald’s really could save the economy.
That giant guy can buy a car cause he eats from the $1 menu and McDonald’s. Nobody else can.
34-30 Bulls – nice move Allen
i love when ty thomas shows that range
How masturbatory is this, lol.
Anyhoo Go Green!
big baby & perkins are without a doubt the best fat frontcourt in nba history.
36-32 Bulls. Garnett looks nice.
36-36 – Bulls need a time out!
Well, this game is definitely sloppy…but, on the bright side, that’ll help keep the score close…
36-36 – they got a TV time out
it’s the same as a thread in the cave!
I like watching Eddie House shoot…
Bobby, come on man, there is some talk of chalupas if it gets to a high number of posts. i could go for some e-chalupas man.
What a shitty call on Perkins. It was a beautiful block.
You are losing your e-Chalupas
the bulls need to get a lead going into the half…I really just wanted to see if KG would have suited up for the second half.
silly foul by perkins
46-38 Celtics – Bulls need to refocus. He said announcerishly.
46-38 – celtics. Obvious charge – don’t know what he’s whining about.
46-38 – celtics, OK – who is going to do some predictions for half time commentary?
So the Boston bench finally shows up.
50 – 38 Celtics – P-Blade is lazy!
52 – 38 Celtics. Nice move
P-Blade should really be call P=Bladed…
barkley is gonna be yapping about how the bulls didnt get the crowd out of the game
Is it just me or did his examples not really illustrate what he was saying?
This was the best comment of the first half.
well – that was shitty – stupid shitty fucking host
sorry everyone
did we break this bitch? didn’t even get to 100 and it was fuckin’ up on us.
probably lost that bobby dude.
67 – 58 Celtics. Scalabrine is the most delicious sounding player I can recall.
Did I ever tell you that I watched Robocop in the theater with Dr. J. and his wife? True story. My friend and I were the only other people in the theater.
78-71 Celtics. Hmmm
Ben Jordon time.
78-71 Celtics – Bulls can win this game.
Did you ask Doc after the game who would win in a game of 1 on 1 between him and Robocop? Clearly Robocop would smoke him, but, nonetheless, question should be asked.
Bulls need to put together a run, slip into the lead and make this a great finish.
81 – 77 Celtics – this is a game.
84-77 Celtics – that 3 hurt
Yeah, but if they give a couple points back on the technical against House for stupidity after draining the three…then get a bucket, it doesn’t hurt as much.
84-78 Celtics. What City has the most championships altogether, out of the three major sports (and hockey)?
Must be NY, right?
penalty. game over.
89-86 Celtics. And the site is fixed. FOR NOW!
this series is a miracle, and no one here will ever see this again. These things have happened so far over 7 and all of them are fucking odd and strange:
1. Ben Gordon has become reggie miller. when he has hoisted a jump shot, boston fans gasp.
2. Rondo went from “hey he’s coming along nicely” to “my god he can throw the team on his back and cut out the Bull’s hearts” in the span of 7 GAMES.
3. Noah went from weird, ineffective NBA player to some oddly valuable intangibles guy. this man can make MILLIONS if his contract was up this year.
4. Brian Scalabrine is not only getting minutes, but worthy minutes and EFFECTIVE MINUTES. He is a rebound machine.
5. Ben Miller is a major threat in a playoff game in 2009.
it doesn’t even matter how this ends – the Mayans may be correct, and the world may end soon.
91-86 Celtics. Too bad that didnt drop – he beat P-Bladed clean
i will say that if boston wins, rondo will roll right over any orlando guard. I am deeply worried if i am the Magic and i’m seeing Rondo playing this way against derek rose, who is much better than alston.
Gah, the officiating sucks!

e-chalupas all around.
good points, jw
Bobby what’s wrong with the officiating? This officiating doesn’t seem like it has risen to “sucks” standards…
House finally showing up…Gordon is going to have to provide an answer here…
i have no idea how that got posted twice. anyways, if boston wins this series, i demand a loosely based move about brian scalabrine’s roll in this series, and i want michael rappaport to play him. this is like every “normal dude somehow joins the star athlete team and teaches them how to love the game again” movie.
I’m looking on the two bad calls on Perkins,
for instance…
holy crap – Pierre said that, too. You guys love you some rappaport.
6 points, under a minute – how nervous are any of you right now?
maybe, the double tech was weird, it’s like they were calling a tech, then didnt know who to call it on. Shouldn’t have called a tech either way.
Either way, just seems like they are calling it tight. Ray Allen has certainly recognized and taken advatange of that.
Ben Gordon still has at least 2 three’s in him…hopefully he is not saving them for potential OTs, though…
100 – 95 Celtics. This is very tense.
hahahaa and that’s how sideshow bob ends his series.
Tough miss for Gordon there.
102 – 95 Celtics. Not as tense now.
104 – 97 Celtics. That shot dropping killed Chicago. Poor Smegma.
brad miller just ran faster now than he has ran in 5 years
So long Chicago.
the bulls have no reason to be pissed about this – all those young guys got a ton of playoff reps for next season.
you got that right.
My heart skipped a beat on that 3pt attempt
miller has the worst tattoos in the nba. and he plays in an organized league with stephon marbury.
i can’t believe someone owns an eddie house jersey that isn’t related to eddie house.
Yeah, Chicago played a great series, Rose and Gordon is a solid duo to build off of as Rose’s potential is huge.
I can’t believe Eddie House has “E-House” tattoo’d on him. I mean, fuck, if you’re going to get your nicknamed tat’d on you…you need to request a better nickname first.
I still want to punch that midget looking muthafucka Marbury in the face.
Anyways, thanks and congrats to both teams, SPECTACULAR SERIES.
it’s really odd to think that dwight howard and perkins is actually a good matchup.
howard and perkins is a good matchup?
Good series and good coverage by us. Even though the site shit the bed 94 times and we missed the whole third quarter.
But still – E-Chalupas.
howard will win, but perkins has very much improved, and it is possible that dwight will have to kick it out a lot more.
It’s a better matchup that Dalembert/Howard, but I think it’ll still come down to whether the Magic can get the ball to Howard when he can do something with it.
so who’s winning next series and in what games? i have to say orlando in 6. celts went through a war, and that will effect it.
Celtics in 7 -just to be contrary.
ok, if the celts win in 7, and face cleveland, then I predict lebron figures out some way to be able win that series in 3 games. regardless how impossible that is, he figures out a way to do it.
Orlando in 6. Cavs in 5. Orlando over Cavs in 6 or 7.
