Every play near the basket looked like a traffic accident. There were long scoreless stretches. Shooting from outside was a dicey proposition. It was ugly for everyone but the Chicago Bulls. This was their type of game.
Give me $330 million to spend on contracts and I can piece together a pretty good team, too. And why knight King before the Bulls are slain?
The Celtics return to the TD Garden on Friday night for their first game since the Boston Marathon bombings.
Brook Lopez led the Nets with 22 points, but it wasn't enough as the Nets lost 79-76 to the Bulls in Game 3. The Bulls are now up 2-1 in the series.
