Note to Bulls Fans: We're OK

If you don't care what I have to say, how will you come to terms with Chicago's problems, how they are outrebounding the Heat but are only 1 of 3 in the games, who Rose needs to dump it to when the Heat shut down his shooting?

Well i wouldn't say shut down his shooting. he still got 20 shots off he still had some good looks but they still aren't falling. Miami has played him better than anyone Ive seen all season i'll give you that. But Bulls still missed some open shots and layups that had nothing to do with the Heats defense. Bulls D is so focused on Wade & James, they are letting other people kill them.

How does rose only get 3 FT attempts all game? he was getting smacked and hit all game. i'm not going to blame the refs but they made some no calls that should have gone the bulls way.

Well I will say Rose could quickly turn a lot of those shots he normally makes that he's been missing. The tide could turn then. Boozer or Deng would still need to be hitting and Noah would need to be getting the offensive rebounds.

To me, the most surprising turn of the series thus far as been Noah not getting the rebounds. I don't really have an explanation for that.

Again, he's averaging 9 per game and almost half of those are offensive. I don't know about you, but last I checked, 4 offensive rebounds per game is a lot. He'd probably have a little more if he wasn't getting called for loose ball fouls. But I agree in that Rose, Deng, and Boozer need to be hitting their shots for us to win. Boozer got his, Deng did ok, but Rose couldn't get it going. He's missing some shots that he normally makes sure, but how is he only getting 3 free throw attempts? Using the stars get calls logic of Houheffna (which is true most of the time) how is he not up there with Wade, James, and Bosh? He's driving to the basket, but no call on drives where he would usually get the call. That's why he's less efficient. He's shooting about the same crappy fg% but with less than half the free throw attempts.
