Seriously, i know we're up 3-1 but i think our backs are against the wall. The Pacers have outplayed the Bulls this series as a whole. Luckily Derrick really came through late in the first few games.

With him being hurt, our chances of advancing are really hurt. Like a poster said in another thread, we keep hearing about the Bulls bouncing back and blowing out the Pacers game after game. Its not happening and it wont! This is a bad matchup for us. This is a very confident team who is talented and well coached. The Bulls with Rose are 11-0 at home vs the Pacers so hopefully they win tonight and get this series out of the way.

Fact is we need guys to step up. Rose can carry us but only so far. We need consistent contribution from Deng on the offensive end and we need Boozer to be at the very least somewhat effective offensively. Noah and Korver have really helped us but we need more from the rest of the supporting cast.

We honestly need a good contribution from the guy in your avatar...Ronnie Brewer...I still think he's affected by that thumb injury and thats limited him. So me he provided alot during the regular season and would like to see him step up off the bench as well. But of course we'd all like to see Boozer finally produce and for Deng and Noah to continue doing what they have been doing. I still think we close out the series tonight, but it will not be easy.

I agree, Ronnie needs to step up but his thumb is just not right. We all know he's never been a great shooter but there was a point where he was starting to nail his mid-range jumpers with somewhat consistency. But that thumb is going to be affecting his game whether hes shooting, playing the baseline or playing d. Look at Jo, seems like he bangs up his thumb once or twice every game.

I do think Brewer has brought some good defense in his limited role and hes knocked down critical FTs in the end but we still need more.

I saw a tweet posted by i think one of the Heats nut huggers on ESPN, showing teams plus/minus the last 5 minutes of games. Guess who is #1 and by a wide margin? The Chicago Bulls. Despite our horrid play for basically 3.5 quarters every game this series, we still finish really well in the 4th.

I know Thibs loves Bogans D and he has played IMO exceptionally well on that end but outside of his 3-3 shooting from 3 in game 3, we need more offense from that position. Why not play Kyle at the 2? It works in crunch time, why not during the early stages of the game? WHY!?!? Look when the double Rose, someones open, right? Lets get a shooter out there that needs to be guarded. Give more opportunities to Deng and Snoozer. Noahs doing what he can with his limited offense.

Vogel, I love your honesty......but, I expect the Bulls to come out firing on all cylinders this game. They wanna get this series over with.

I'm hoping they can catch some revival from being back in the UC & have the Madhouse on their side!

Anyone on here who goes to the game.......give the Pacers hell! Yell 'til their ears bleed.

We can only play like crap for so long. Someone will catch fire at some point, be it Deng, Boozer, Korver, or anyone else. Maybe Rose being injured will cost us a game, but honestly, if we could actually play well for a game it won't even be close. Here's hoping for a blowout.

The Bulls are easily capable of winning any of the remaining games of this series, including a game 6 at Indy.

If he really wants to get credit for a prediction, he needs to predict the outcome of tonights game and just say, "we're going to win the series". He's not doing that because its just a ploy.
