Bulls slip up in Miami--trail series 3-1

The Chicago Bulls took part in game four in Miami tonight hoping to even the series at 2--but things did not go as they had planned.

They were off to a bright start leading by as much as 9 early in the 1st but eventually finished up 19-16.

By the half they led only by 2 and thanks to great defending by Lebron James on Derrick Rose, the MVP guard missed a shot at the buzzer which sent the game into a brutal OT for the Bulls.

Miami out hustled, and outscored Chicago in these gruesome five minutes and this eventually led to a 101-93 Miami win..keeping momentum in Miami's favor heading back to Chicago for game 5 of the series.

If the Bulls want to win, more than one thing has to work out for them. First, Omer Asik has to get over his injury quick and provide some good defense off the bench for the entirety of the minutes he is given. Noah needs to stay out of foul trouble. Deng needs to hit more shots and play better, tougher, and tighter defense on Lebron James. Kyle Korver needs to hit his trademark 3's to provide a spark off the bench and add some much needed depth to the Chicago score. Derrick Rose needs to prove his worth as league MVP and lead HIS Chicago team to victory agaisnt a Miami side who have three game changers available in their starting line-up in James, Wade, and Bosh. Rose can not let his starting center Noah lead his team in assists. Rose is the point guard therefore it is his job to run plays for his entire team while he is on the floor.

Chicago finished with the best record in the entire NBA this season. Miami has been playing well thus far into the post season and they have players who are used to the pressure. This is Rose's first time making it this far into the playoffs and game five will be the perfect time for him to create some magic. They need to play defense just as good as their offense because unfortunately they do not have nearly the same amount of talent on their team as Miami does.

Simple basketball will only get them so far therefore being the professionals they are, they need to create a unique game plan and do their best to get a repeat of game one's performance--a well deserved win.
