I think the only position Bulls are better at is the PG position. Everything else is even or Rockets have it, that includes the bench. We just weren't playing hard enough in the 1st half to overcome Rose's dominance.
Both teams on the second night of back-to-backs, so things aren't very pretty. Which is good for Houston. They're experts of ugly ball.
Hayes over Noah and Battier over Deng??? Edit - Didn't see the "even" part but still find it interesting.
