Not a pretty game for Rose, but I give him a lot of credit. Came
through when it mattered most despite being physically punished
all game. Indy threw EVERYTHING they had at him, and it still
wasn't enough. That's impressive, to me.

Rose made the winning play which he's become great at. But they
don't win tonight without Korver and, yes, even Keith Bogans who
was 3-3 from three.

Just saw the Foster foul on Rose on the Bulls feed, and he
definitely hit Rose on the head with a clothesline-type elbow.
Didn't see it on NBA TV.

Imagine how bad the Lakers and Spurs are - they've actually lost
a game.
Give the Bulls credit for pulling out three wins against a team
that's playing like they believe they can win. They haven't
looked good but in the playoffs, a win is a win. Give Rose
credit, too - from the time I said he needed to start getting to
the basket he was 11-11 from the line. He had a bad night and
did what he had to do to get to the finish line.
I will say this - someone from the Pacers better get planted the
first time they go to the hole in game 4. The Bulls need to be
nastier - when they keep taking cheap shots - mostly at your
star player - and no one responds, the real contenders take
notice.

Looks like the Pacers were thinking what I was on that last
possession:
[i]"Korver killed us in the fourth," Vogel said. "He even killed
us on the last play when we couldn’t leave him to help. That
allowed Rose to get to the bucket."

Geez, been working and bulls game slipped mind so came here
first before espn or any other site like I usually do. I was
really disappointed they lost in blow out fashion till someone
posted they won. I really need to remember to go to espn first
for games I miss. Lol

So what if they don't win without Korver et al. That's why you
have 5 guys on the floor and a bench. People criticize the Bulls
saying they're too reliant on Rose. Now he gets some help from
the rest of his team and that's a bad thing?
On another note... how bout them Hawks? I completely wrote them
off, but after repeated drubbings of the opposition, you have to
wonder. At the very least give them credit for putting up a hell
of a fight with their backs against the wall.

I don't think the Bulls are doing anything different than what
they did in the regular season, which is playing to the level of
competition. You may not like it but that's what they do. Of
course most good teams are guilty of the same thing. I could
care less if they when all four games by one point. As long as
the Bulls sweep this series or at worst win it in 5 then I am
happy. The playoffs are about winning, not style points.

I will say that I hope they sweep simply for their safety. I
know it's the playoffs but the Pacers have gotten away with at
least three obvious flagrant fouls if not more including two
last night that were blatant. I want the Bulls to put them away
before someone gets hurt. And if I were on that team Jeff
Foster would be limping off the court the next time he gets
close to the basket. He isn't trying to foul hard, he is trying
to hurt somebody.
