The Bulls are done.

[Nick Manning]

I give them an outside chance of winning Game 5, but this shit's over.

Nice season though, you're an OJ Mayo away from serious contention.

This thing will be tied up going into game 5.
One game can tell you a lot but it takes one breakout performance by Rose (which I wouldn't be surprised to see) and a couple of role players contributing to win. Plus, the Bulls play defense. That alone gives them a shot to steal one in Miami.

miami be stern's love baby imo as they always be. bulls be really good this season and dat NIGGA rose be the MVP this season but nig still young and stern has no intention to establish him as a trademark like Lebron/Wade at this point of time. rose needs a scottie pippen imho

:lol game 2 ecstasy. It was a must win game for the Heat. No way the heat would have come back from a 2-0 deficit. The Bulls played like trash the entire game and it was tied with 4 minutes to go. The Bulls will take either game three or four and the series will be tied at two heading back to Chicago.

I hope you and HH are planning your 3 month farewell speech come series end or is that just Harlem?

How much? :lol

[ALVAREZ6]

Steal 1, why not 2?

Bulls don't have enough offense to compete, don't have enough scorers. They have solid defensive role players but they need more guys that can create. They are not going to steal 2 games in Miami or win this series.

[edgar]

I really hope the bulls can find a way to regain momentum/

[ALVAREZ6]

I really hope the bulls can find a way to regain momentum/

For different reasons I don't mind if any of the remaining 4 teams win. The Heat are gonna get theirs sooner or later, and D-Wade is a boss. But Bosh doesn't deserve shit and my respect for LeBron has plummeted. Durant winning would be fine with my as well because he'd already be leading LeBron, and it would really irritate the Boston FO with how stupid the Perkins trade was. D-Rose is a phenomenal player I'm also a fan of Deng, and the Bulls are a defensive-minded team with an extremely solid front court. They have an army of PFs/Cs. Finally, Dirk deserves a ring, which is why I wouldn't be totally opposed to Dallas winning it all. That said though I still want Cuban to never see such an accomplishment through :lol.

[Isitjustme?]

I think the Bulls can still make this a 6 or 7 game series. Unless Haslem keeps playing like this.

[NewJerSpur]

Thing I still like about the Bulls in regards to their win was it came as the result of a balanced team effort, which resulted in a blowout of the Heat early into the 4th of Game 1. The Heat played good team defense but needed Haslem and James' individual efforts to take them over the top with the game still being up in the air late.

Bulls missed many of the open jumpers they were making in Game 1 as a team and many of the layups/putbacks to go along but the key is the opportunities were still there for the majority of the game. Got to make the FT's count moving forward.

[NewcastleKEG]

Ford the record the score was 32-34 and Rose had 2 points. He had 12 at Halftime and the game was tied

Bulls tightened up down the stretch. It was a tie game with 4 minutes remaining correct?

[ogait]

Took the Heat a miserable shooting night from the Bulls, although some credit has to be given to Miami's defense, for them to win this game.

Thing is everyone knows the two best players are on their side but I haven't seen anything so far that can convince me that the Heat are the better team. Haslem was an unexpected factor in this game but the Bulls will be ready for him next. I predict he will be a non factor from here on.

The main point is from a game plan perspective the Bulls were still superior to the Heat, they got their shots on offense just didn't make them, they were excellent on defense and were beaten by Lebron making contested jumpers. The one thing I would change is that they have to get something offensively from Boozer in the 4th when the game is so close, which means they have to play him even if he's a liability on defense.

I give a fifty fifty chance for both teams simply because Wade and James can go off on any night but no way this ends in less than 6 and possibly 7.

[hater]

Rose looks hurt out there. Bulls might be done after all.

[Killakobe81]

Disagree on Mayo. On closer examination I think he and Rose are a poor fit. The perfect fit? A healthy Arron Afflalo if he can maintain his 3 point shooting from this past season with the Nuggs.

He is a solid defender (so they wont need to rely on Bogans) although no Kyle Korver or Redick he is a reliable shooter. Plus he doesnt need the ball in his hands as much as Mayo ... wait a minute ...I hope this does not happen, forget I said anything ...LOL

TBS, I do think Mayo will be a good asset ... even to the Bulls but NOT an ideal fit there.

[Ace]

Unless Rose goes crazy Bulls are in trouble. Heat role players will play much better at home and its not likely the Bulls role players play better on the road.

Nice 1 game sample right there bro. In the long run, in 7 games, they don't have enough to keep up, unless the Heat play like shit.

[John Basedow]

Stupid thread, how can you call the series over when it's tied 1-1?

[jjktkk]

The Bulls priority this Summer, should be to find a legit #2 scorer. Bulls don't have enough offense when facing top defenses. This series will still be close, because of the Bulls d, but the Heat, if they continue to bring the energy on d, will be too much for Chicago to overcome.

Lol Bulls fan is ghost...

[NewJerSpur]

Going to be a HUGE Game 4 for Chi-town out this mofo. The positive is that as good as Miami's defense has played the middle of the floor is still open as long as the Bulls are patient and execute. Guys like Watson and Korver are going to have to put up decent offensive numbers to help tip the scale. Boozer made some jumpers (his game) and missed some key and-1 opportunities but at least he took advantage of the opportunities when Miami went away from doubling him and allowed him clean looks.
