Bulls Knock Off Celtics In Epic Game Six
Thursday, April 30, 2009
This could quite possibly be one of the best series I've ever seen. Not only did the Bulls come back from down eight with two to go, but they took the defending champs to three overtimes and somehow forced a game seven. Here's some of the crazy video. I've split it into two parts....the first being the regulation and first two overtimes, and the second being the final minutes of the 3rd OT. Just unbelievable and complete with a Joakim Noah sighting....Enjoy!
Just unbelievable. I'm going to let the video speak for itself on that one.
Let's Play The Feud: Celtics-Bulls (Round 7)
I don't think I've seen a series this rough since the late 80s/early 90s, and the hatred continued early in Game Six of the Bulls-Celts showdown tonight. Kirk Heinrich decided to elbow Brian Scalabrine below the belt, and when boxed out Rajon Rondo on the next play to about the three point line, Rondo didn't seem to like that one bit. Let's play the feud....again!!!
Now this is Playoff Basketball! Actually that was kind of a bitch move by both, but you can't entirely blame them for getting frustrated. I'm also thinking that would be a great one-on-one fight, Heinrich vs. Rondo, but no one would want to see it come to that. Right? Of course not.
Ray Allen Would Like You To Know That The Celts Can Win Without KG

I still think the Celtics are employing a WWE-style storyline, with Kevin Garnett coming out of the locker room during the fourth game of the Eastern Conference Finals, but they have to get there without him first. Thanks to Ray Allen, they can actually achieve that now....
I wasn't stoked for the NBA Playoffs in the least, but it takes just one game and finish like this, to get you psyched. The Playoffs have officially begun....DAGGER!

Not that many local announcers ever make it to national stardom, but there are some whose names you may not know, but their voices are unmistakeable. Johnny "Red" Kerr was one of those people, and after a long bout with Prostate Cancer, he passed away at the age of 76. Via the Associated Press....
Johnny "Red" Kerr, the former Chicago Bulls coach who spent more than three decades as a broadcaster for the team, died Thursday. He was 76.Man, just a tough day for Chicago. In honor of Kerr, here is part of the halftime presentation in honor of the broadcaster that took place on February 10th....
Kerr died at his home after a battle with prostate cancer, Bulls spokesman Tim Hallam said.
"His name was synonymous with basketball, both here in Chicago, and throughout the entire NBA," Bulls chairman Jerry Reinsdorf said. "Those that were fortunate enough to have known Johnny were touched by both his tremendous compassion for people, and his lifelong passion for the game of basketball. We will miss him greatly."
Kerr's death is a double blow for the Bulls, following the death also Thursday of Norm Van Lier, one of the most popular players in Bulls history. Van Lier was 61.
"We're deeply saddened by the whole course of events today," Hallam said.
