Bulls @ Heat
I can't see Rose going off for 40 points against the Heat... They're a hedge team and trap all pick and rolls.
I'd much rather Rose attack when the opportunity is there, but to move the ball... I'll say he ends the game with 23 points and 11 assists.
I'd put the ball in Wade's hands when the game is on the line as well. LeBron is a great fourth quarter player, but isn't all that great taking game winning shots. I'd let Wade take the game winners.
I dont think DRose goes off for 40+, more like 27... and it's a low scoring game. We're talking about 2 of the best field goal % defenses in the league.. I think the score is around 91-88 either way. Close game and either team could come out on top.
hell do what the elite pg have done all year against the heat and thats get a w i look for 25 and double digit assist for d rose i totally agree that wade should have the ball in his hands at the end of games actually i cant stand the heat so let lbj have it so i know theyll lose lol
I just hate how Bron is gonna take the blame for this just like the other losses when he had the best game of anyone on the floor, just couldn't make one shot...D wade needs the ball in the clutch, but LeBron needs to be taking even MORE shots the rest of the game.
The Heat have two superstars and one All-Star, but the Bulls have a better overall team.
The Bulls just have more chemistry and have more cohesion. A superstar in Rose who's humble and unselfish. A great second option in Boozer. A solid second or third option in Deng, who's been reliable at both ends all season and during the clutch. Role players who do their jobs in Noah, Bogans, Korver, Asik, Gibson and Watson.
This Bulls team can make it to the Finals. They defend and will be able to grind out games come playoff time.
I fully agree..it's just so frustrating. Even LeBron has confidence issues, kinda crazy with that ego. You know he CAN make these shots, he has before. He just has lost all confidence. I did like the resilience I saw from the heat though. And I would still pick them in a series.
For the Heat I actually like them better on the road and its come down to will the MENTALLY turn it around once the playoffs hit right now they look like they can be beaten in the 1st round, but you don't know since they still have Lebron and Wade and how everything changes in the playoffss
I'm surprised Lebron tried to drive with the left hand on the last shot, he ended up throwing up an ugly shot, but it was solid D. I don't think it should have been that close at the end though. The Bulls had the ball and a five or six point lead with likd 1:20 left when D Rose took a quick bad shot that ended up an air ball, that allowed the Heat to get back into it.
And D-Rose is playing, he is without a doubt the front runner for MVP. If the Bulls hold on to get a better record than the Heat, it should be Derrick Rose hands down. The guy is playing amazing basketball against great teams. Incredible leader as well, he has the Bulls playing amazing basketball this year. I know his defense is still seen as questionable, but he gives a great effort and is so strong driving to the basket. He has lived up to the hype and than some this year.
I don't know who i would pick in the playoffs. Every year a team beats a team a couple or all the time in the regular season but cant beat them in the playoffs. I think if i had to pick i would pick rhe Bulls since the Heat havn't played together for a long time
That's what i like about basketball...Things can change from week to week because there are still games to be played. Dirk was the leader before he got hurt, Lebron has been the leader for a good period or time, Amare has been the leader at one point. This will be a very interesting race for MVP
Damn i forgot about Dwight. Yeah he's in the running as well. I gotta be honest, i cant remember the last time i was looking forward to the playoffs as much as this year. People complain about these super teams but that's when playoffs are the best. Back in the day when the Celtics,Lakers,Det were super teams that's when basketball was at its best
LeBron has outplayed D rose in every game...wade and bosh just are too inconsistent, and LeBron can't make that one last shot. I truly believe LeBron is still very much the most valuable player, but that rose will win it with personality and quality wins.
The playoffs are going to be great this year with matchups like
Knicks-Heat
Bulls-Knicks
Bulls-Heat
Celtics-Heat
Thunder-Lakers
Lakers- Mavericks
Lakers-Spurs
The amount of star power in the playoffs this year will be rediculous Cant wait

LeBron's overall numbers have been better, but I think Rose has made more plays down the stretch of each game.
DRose goes off for 40+ Bulls win 101 -96. This game solidifies Rose as MVP. Now on to more urgent matters, who is clutch for Heat. I would put the Ball in DWade hands i thought that a couple of years ago he made @least 3-4 game winning shots, plus he has that take over-a-game mentality, thats needed, get's to the line whenever he wants to. So Miami should put ball in his hands @ the end of games, i believe Heat are 1-12/or 1-15 in clutch situations. When a shot is needed to tie or win ball game.
