    great performance by bosh.

    rose is just struggling to adjust to what defenses are doing to him in the playoffs. hopefully he learns from this.

    heat shooting 51% over this great of a defense is just scary

    he is a damn good player, but people think he can just take over a game and will the bulls to a win or 2 in this series when there are 2 better players in this series is absurd.

    You never know.......he might be able to erupt and win a game for them.

    Is it going to happen......probably not.

    But to say that it is completely outside the realm of possibility is just wrong.

    Rose is a phenom, but he is still far too inefficient to be considered the best player in basketball or even this series. Especially since LeBron and Wade are demons on defense and Rose is slightly above average.

    Bulls have struggled on O(outside of game 1 where their shots fell that game.) Yeah it wont be surprising if they win but wont be shocked either if they lose. I thought this was an important game for the Bulls. Tied 1-1, have a chance to go up 2-1, at worst go back tied 2-2 to Chicago. Again, they could win game 4, but if not, you're going back to Chicago down 1-3, and that pretty much does it for them, no? Chicago in some trouble imo.

    Bulls are def in trouble. but that trouble can be fixed if they win the next game. Then just win your home games.

    Still early in this series. hats off to Miami for coming back big after that game 1 meltdown.

    Chicago's weakness, namely lack of offense, is not something that can be fixed without major change of personnel.

    This series is over. Miami is one step closer of taking over the Lakers' spot as the most hated team in the NBA.

    I'd be surprised. They aren't as good of a team, and this game is in Miami.

    They shouldn't have post game shows outdoors. People are drunk, hyped up, and pissed off at Barkley.

    i think they need to have rose off the ball more. the bulls have their best offense when rose isn't touching (and when he's on the bench). sure it was not a long stretch, but the same thing happened in games 1 and 2.

    rose using the pick and roll just make it so easy for the heat to guard the bulls. and having rose looking to shoot first (no assists in the first half) makes it worse.

    rose is like a poor man's allen iverson right now this entire playoffs.

    most people think the best team is the team who won the last game.

    let it ride
