I hate to be the Buzzkill, but.....
As much as whining about foul calls sucks I think Shaq has a couple of good points, and as a Bulls fan I worry that we may see some overcompensation by refs in Game 2. At the end of the day, it's not good for the NBA to have Shaq ride pine during the playoffs. Also, isn't anyone worried that basically everything went right for the Bulls – with the sole exception of Hinrich's foul trouble, and I'd say Sefolosha stepped up more than admirably for him – and virtually everything went wrong for the Heat, and we still only won by five on our home court and nearly gave it away down the stretch? I'm happy to get a win, but let's not get too excited - remember last year? Sure, we competed for about 4.72 games of the first-round series, but after that it was a joke. The Heat just turned it on and ran us out of the building. Then again, Deng, Thabo and Gordon were fantastic, and if Wallace takes one or two less turn-around fadeaway jumpers he'll be doing his job as well. I didn't give the Bulls much of a chance going in, and I still think it's a long shot, but I liked what I saw from a lot of guys... Tuesday's the big one, though, because if we go to Miami tied 1-1 we're in an awful lot of trouble. GO BULLS!!!!!!! P.S. While I agree that Thabo was the best defender on Wade yesterday afternoon, let's not get carried away and forget about two or three years of very solid D from Hinrich against Wade - Flash hasn't struggled against the Bulls for 3 years because of Thabo's impending arrival... |

Take a look at the box score... can you remember the bulls ever having a 3 point percentage so low? ... and everything went wrong for the Heat? Did you see Walkers performance? When was the last time he batted a thousand from three point range and at the charity stripe? |
