Miami has exerted a ton of energy this quarter and are only up by 6. The Bulls are in good position despite Miami seemingly outplaying them in 3rd. I think Bulls depth shines through in 4th.

Haslem is looking tired with 6:37 left, not sure he’s going to be a lot of help down the stretch. Bulls aren’t giving up any 2nd chance baskets now either.

[quote name=Horny Goat]how about running some plays? they’ve been driving to the hoop like maniacs[/quote]Yep. No movement, at all. Everyone stand and stare at DRose.
The Bulls attacked the basket, they just missed and couldn’t get the follows either. I don’t have any problem at all with driving the ball to the basket especially against the Heat’s defense.
[quote name=melissa]The Bulls attacked the basket, they just missed and couldn’t get the follows either. I don’t have any problem at all with driving the ball to the basket especially against the Heat’s defense.[/quote] they needed to slow it down, imo. Throw the ball around until you get an open shot. you can’t try to drive it down their throats every time.
Bulls were 3 for 20 behind the 3 point line. If the outside shot isn’t falling you have to adjust and drive the ball to the basket. The Bulls weren’t getting the calls a lot of times and when they did they were missing free throws. If they move the ball and hit guys when they are cutting to the basket it’s not a problem. Derrick’s bread and butter is driving the ball to the basket, he just had a bad night.
all those drives to the hoop weren’t even close. Notice when they took perimeter shots it was in n out. So close. then they started going to the hoop without dishing or anything.
Bulls shot 34%, missed 10 free throws and were still in the game. I expect them to do better in those areas going forward. It’s a long series and I never expected them to sweep. They take 1 of 2 in Miami and they’re fine.

Holy crap – listening to CTL for some Bulls pregame, and Kaplan and Haughty couldn’t be dumber about the NBA.

Kaplan is so dumb, I’d rather watch the Cubs. JGoff does know his shit but needs to get more comfortable on camera.

Ilgauskas, inactive. I was hoping they would try and run his old badness out there in an over-reaction to the Bulls inside dominance.

Bulls have to finish on their end and stop giving up transition baskets.

Hit a shot guys! It will limit the transition baskets MIA is getting. Painful game to watch.
