It's said that some drug lord had put big money on said game and decided that Escobar had to pay for his loss :\ | ||

It seems Chicago took way more of a mental blow from Rose going down than they would like to admit, but the games were decent, Philly just closed better a few more games. | ||

The bodyguard who did it took the fall. Hes already out now. Time to see what the Hawks are made of today. | ||

However, his overall performance this playoffs was horrible.. and it wasn't what you wanted to see when we're forced to pick him up on his option due to Rose being out! Oh well, you win and lose as a team, just gotta work hard during the off-season and be ready for the next tip-off. I feel most for Asik right now, he had played his best game in a Bulls jersey, was such a hero, hitting 4/5 FTs when you're a 45% FT shooter is HUGE, so heartbreaking to see him missing the two last shots :< | ||
