2013 Playoffs Discussion Thread

[Purple Haze]

Listen, People were comparing his game. Look up if you don't believe me. As far as thickness, sure i'll conceded that Burke is 3 inches taller and nearly the same weight. So what though? If Burke ends up playing like Nate it would be a flipping nightmare. I don't even remember you talking about Burke until last night or today and throwing in the stature thing out of the blue (or it could be not reading and comprehending, if so you have my apology).

Are you joking me dude? We've been discussing this for months and I've been on the Burke train forever (see my avatar).

I wasn't even arguing with you by the way, just clarifying and making sure we were on the same page. I don't want Burke to be Robinson, but what Robinson is doing should quell just a BIT of the "Burke's too small" idea. That's all.

I don't think Burke is too small. I think we're arguing, but agreeing. Stop it!

Yes? But Burke's thick too. He's no 160 lb. stick. He's 190 solid @ 5' 10".

NRob is listed at 5' 9" 180 but we all know that's BS. He's a generous 5' 8". The math works for me.

Lil Nate was measured at the combine as 5'7.75 without shoes and 5'9 with shoes.

Burke should be better than Nate. Ive been more skeptical of Burke than most, but i see him having a fine career. Nate is exciting there is no doubt about that.

I woke up this morning and saw this and literally lmao. Looks like a mini me of 50 cent.

[kclaboy504]

All i know is what Rose HAS done before. Which is the same as they're doing without him. Rose has never taken the Bulls past the second round, right? They're in the second round without him, right?

Rose took the bulls to the eastern conf finals in 2011.

Chandler has a low iq? Weird everyone that plays w him says his defensive iq is off the charts.

I dont need anyone's opinion, I just see it myself everytime I watch him play. ;]

Just finished watching OKC vs Memphis. Glad they won, because they are playing great team work, a very balanced offense and defense, just like the first game where they just played bad the last 2 minutes and cost them the game.
But not this time.

He lacks on the offensive side of the ball. His bb iq is very high tho. Very smart savvy veteran. He didn't make the USA team by mistake.

So pretty much what I said?

[JJackisangry]

Bulls playing well early

[JJackisangry]

And now they're not...

[da ThRONe]

Yeah but you were wrong about Burke. He measured 6' even without shoes at Deron Williams skill camp. Usually guys gain an inch and a quarter with shoes.

Paul measured 5'11.75 without shoes and 6'1 with shoes at the combine.

I expect Burke to officially measure anywhere between 5'11.5-.6' at the combine.

Ahh bulls dont need any more turnovers... Christ

[JJackisangry]

That didnt just go through the bottom of the hoop?!?!? Wtf did i just see?

[JJackisangry]

Oh snap! Cheap shot on Belli... Didnt realize Belli was so dangerous

[JJackisangry]

Gibson!

[JJackisangry]

This will be a long game if the bulls keep picking up silly technicals and turning the ball over

[JJackisangry]

Butler really is something special... Bright future for him

[JJackisangry]

Poop.

[JJackisangry]

Turnovers took the Bulls out of this game. Unless the Heat suck this game is pretty much over.

Paul measured 5'11.25 without shoes and 6'1 with shoes at the combine.

I expect Burke to officially measure anywhere between 5'11.25-.75 at the combine.

i think burke measures 5"11.75 at the combine without shoes and 6"1 with shoes, burke is also quite strong, while being quick, smart, a good passer and good shooter. Perfect point guard, best player in the draft.

Yeah I was off about Paul's height he was 5'11.75.

If Burke measured 6' without shoes at Williams camp can't imagine he'll be much shorter than that at the combine. How hard is it to measure someone?

[MeSoHornets504]

Watching these playoffs, I have to wonder: For the length of their careers who are you taking Duncan or Kobe?

[kclaboy504]

Thompson is on fire rt now!!!!
