I think the Bulls just need to minimize the turnovers and play some defense. That could have been their downfall but Rose was in beast mode and led the charge the rest of the way. He needs help too.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Bulls smash the Pacers in game two. Now that they know what the Pacers are capable of, time to put the clamps on in game two and get to work!

Boys.

F'n wow.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. For the first time in 12 years, I never had a single doubt in my mind that the Bulls would find a way to win. I <3 this team, I <3 this coach, I <3 this PG, and I love this town. GO BULLS!

The Bulls got off to their typical slow start today. Who knew it would last for 46 of the 48 minutes. Still, I never thought they were gonna lose. Rose won't let them. This should give the Bulls a lot of confidence the next time they fall behind. They'll know if they step up their defense they can come back on anybody.

It has to be a crushing defeat for the Pacers. They will try to convince themselves that they can compete with the Bulls, but they will know deep down in their hearts that no matter how well they play, no matter how big a lead they have, they just aren't good enough to beat the Bulls.

^^^This. It's a great time to be a Bulls fan. Now and for years to come.

Heat started slow today against Philly. It's the playoffs. It all comes down to who wants it more. The fire and passion the Bulls have far outweighs that of Lebrick and Bosh Spice.

NBA at it's finest. The best players in the big markets are giving every chance imaginable. The fact that DRose shot more free throws (21) then the entire Pacers team (17) is a joke.

rape and ass :eek:

It wasn't just a slow first half. it was a slow first 3 and a half quarters. I think part of it was playing kurt thomas significant minutes in the playoffs. he wasn't bad, but we ought to think about playing taj gibson more minutes, so we can run more.

korver, rose, deng and noah are amazing. Brewer and thomas played decently off the bench. Boozer needs to stop hanging out with prince, cause he's in a funk.

Korver drained 57 threes in the 4th quarter this season. The most for an NBA player.
Man he and Deng are the most dangerous players in the wing for the Bulls.

are denying that rose wasn't fouled often? If want the bulls to shoot less ft's, stop fouling them. I think rose should have shot a couple more free throws tonight.

Anybody else absolutely love Luol Deng getting the croud pumped? I don't remember the last time I saw a NBA crowd that loud and into it. It felt like a college atmosphere.

I think Deng and the crowd were about as excited as this man was on the night Macaulay Culkin's film Home Alone opened in theaters back in 1990. Check out his reaction during one of Culkin's scenes......

Mad props to the Pacers for coming to play. Boo to the Bulls for phoning it in for 46 minutes. But Yay for 2 minutes of clutch play from the boys!

Story of the game. The Bulls showed up when it mattered. Rose was clutch. MVP status solidified!
