You're shitting me right? Even the commentators here said that last play before the shot was a foul on Noah (and it certainly looked like it). Plus Bulls got all the charge calls they needed.

¡Gr?*cies Xavi!
That's not the play I'm complaining about. The Cavs got A LOT of late soft calls in the first half, one of the reasons why Dunleavy got in foul trouble.
Besides, they should change the ruling when it comes to reviews. Cavs basically got a free timeout at the end.

Villarato!
Brickwork by these two teams is astonishing. When Irving isn't on the floor the IQ level of the Cavs team goes down DRASTICALLY..
Horrid, horrid quarter by the Bulls to finish off. They're just not the championship level offense with no go-to-guy in the post. They'll get battered by anyone if Pau isn't healthy (and playing well). Rose was once an MVP? Sure, he hit the game-tying shot, but until then his decisions were so dumb. Westbrook-mode was ON.
It's so ridiculous when they got shat on by Mozgov and JR. It's like witnessing the Bullets kick the Suns' ass in the 90s or something
PS: Why the hell did they allow Cavs to huddle before LeBron got the gamewinner? Sure, everyone knew he was gonna get the ball, but what on earth is that about?

Cavs are an ISO team and Irving doesn't help that either. He's an ISO player with little notion of team basketball, he's very good ISO player when healthy true enough, but you need more than that.
I agree with everything else you said about the Bulls. Cavs are not a good defensive team and Bulls STILL struggle to score against them, says everything you need to know.
They allowed the Cavs to huddle because of the stupid replay rules. The NBA needs to take a look at that because it is giving unfair advantages to teams.

I don't know what it is but those two teams don't convince me and are not particularly interesting to watch for an neutral. Bulls have a limited offense IMO while Cleveland are hardly a team.
It's as if I was watching a poor Euroleague game. Just the tempo being much higher of course and the players being more physical.
Extremely frustrating to watch and very disorganized. It's like watching a PL game.
Nothing like watching the Spurs-Clippers series for instance or the current Rockets-Clippers series.
I don't watch much NBA nowadays (outside of some playoff games here and there) but that's just my impression. At least the tie is open.

Cavs also have a terrible coach. Blatt is a blithering idiot.
Here he is trying to call a timeout at the end when the Cavs had none left.

Yea their coach is an absolute idiot. None of the players listen to him. Lebron is the one coaching and running most of the plays.

Clippers are mentally too weak to win a championship, let alone get to the finals. Cavs actually have an excellent chance of reaching the finals with a crippled bulls, crippled wizards, and a mediocre hawks team
Plus James has a lot of finals experience to carry his team to the trophy

I could live with the Warriors or Clippers winning it.
It would be a horror to watch a final series between the Grizzlies and Cavaliers for instance. Boredom galore.
Don't like the playoffs this year.
Miss Oklahoma and the Heat. Injuries ruined their season. A shame that Spurs went out this quickly too. A season to forget IMO.
