It wasn't pretty and it didn't look good in the second and third quarters but the Bulls pulled it together in the end. Tyrus looked sloppy and his minutes were limited. Gordon got into foul trouble early. Sefalosha wasn't as effective defensively as he had been earlier in the series. As coach Skiles said, they didn't play well and things were not going their way but in the end they overcame.
The key factor no one will mention in this game was Antoine Walker's apparent defection to the nWo. Despite some solid play early, Chicago's own managed to score a basket for the Bulls and create horrible fouls late in the game that swung the momentum in the Bulls' favor. If the Bulls go on to win this series, I fully expect Walker to remove his Heat warmups to reveal a Bulls jersey underneath. Thanks Antoine.
Also a thanks for RDWS' own Jeff Novak for providing us with some multimedia from the game itself. Also, a thank you to Dan Le Batard for looking incredibly stupid on PTI yesterday, predicting the Heat to even up the series at home and saying that Ben Wallace has no ability to defend Shaq. Wrong on both counts retard.
Bulls go for the sweep on Sunday.
