Heat Coach Erik Spoelstra's plan for Game 1 of the Bulls-Heat Eastern Conference Finals was to play a small lineup. It didn't work.
Not only was it a win, it was a convincing win as the Bulls take Game 1 103-82 over the Heat.
In the first game of the highly anticipated Bulls-Heat matchup, the team-centered play of the Bulls proved to be more effective than the individual play of the Heat.
The Bulls-Heat Eastern Conference Finals schedule is set. Here's how I see the positional advantages and breakdowns for the series.
Chicago, it's time for us to let go of our hatred toward LeBron James.
It's the matchup that basketball fans dreamed of since the Chicago Bulls established themselves as a legitimate title contender back in the regular season.
LeBron James will take some turns guarding Derrick Rose in the Eastern Conference finals. So will Dwyane Wade. Mike Bibby, Mario Chalmers and even Chris Bosh in some moments, too.
t seems like this Bulls-Heat series was been destined to happen when back to last July when LeBron James appeared on his infamous TV show, "The Decision."
Derrick Rose saw the talent, saw the attitude and saw no reason why this couldn't be a special season for the Chicago Bulls.
The Miami Heat's Dwyane Wade will be coming home. Just not to his home. After all, an NBA finals berth is at stake.
