    It's almost all defense, and any team can be good defensively with the right coaching.

    Yes that is true. But the majority of their plays tonight were not ISO ball.So there is no "clutchfan" trend here. I exaggerated with the absolute reference there but that doesn't take away from the fact that their offensive system is very sound with picks, screens and passing and they stick to it. It is in no fashion ISO-dominated even if Nate did a few here and there.

    I notice no matter how much Wade sucks at the end all the blame goes directly to LeBron.

    Funny

    Great coaching. Does talent matter? Absolutely. Does coaching matter? Absolutely.

    Good win for the Bulls, and a good win for Nate, but I see Miami waking up and taking complete control of the series. On the other hand though, playoff basketball anything can happen

    That three by Wade when the Heat were down 2 under a minute left was inexplicable. It's like he was trying to tank the game.

    Lebron air-balled a 5' shot under one minute to go.

    I voted for Miami in 6 games but I prefer Bulls to win the series.

    Defense keeps you in games. Morey needs to correct our defensive woes next season. Asik is good but he needs help. Josh Smith and a better defending PG would do this team wonders.

    Not like I said LeBron deserves no blame I just said all the blame goes to him. LeBron and Wade both were bad down the stretch.

    Of course you being you will only point out LeBron though.

    David Stern would not allow that to happen.
