Bulls outhustling the Heat in every facet of the game so far. And no Derrick Rose. John Lucas III just nailed 3 3's in a row.
We should make sure there's a "XY games" thread every day, so many people wanna post abotu the games but have to in semi-related threads.
lol, lucas 4-4 with a crazy roll on one shot, luol deng banking in 3's, the heat playing awful defense and bosh/haslem/anthony embarrassing themselves on the boards. and one night after orlando gets 37 free throws to miami's 11, lebron and wade have 1 combined non-technical free throw, despite attacking the basket a ton (edit: the heat have 4 non-technical free throws in the last 4 quarters plus overtime). but noah's catching free throws with 0.1 seconds left. try to ease up on the sympathy just because there's no d-rose guys.
not if the bulls are shooting 67% on 3's and 100% on free throws. and especially not if dwade keeps sucking after a good first quarter. he's in conference finals mode right now. edit: oh and bosh has been awful from his very first shot. now he's getting blocked by the rim and dribbling into turnovers.
and ESPECIALLY not if ridiculous sequences like what we just saw happen. the bulls shoot an airball and miami in position knocks it out, then the bulls miss and lebron soars for a rebound and somehow just ends up knocking it out to watson for a wide open 3, followed by chalmers missing a point blank layup leading to a fastbreak 3 point play. i'm gonna say it's not your night if that run of 4 plays happens all in a row right after you finally close the gap.
the wheels appear to be falling on. anybody not named lebron can't shoot and the bulls are even more on fire from 3's, even on scramble possessions. i haven't gotten enough sleep lately, i gotta go to bed. i'll see how bad it got in the morning.
The Heat were a mystery last year, you didn't know what you'll get. This year team's can focus on their strengths and weaknesses and play them better. It will be a tough postseason and no guarantees.
