| Hugely embarassing defeat for the Bulls that included playing 2 of the worst quarters in the Derrick Rose era, and maybe Bulls history.
Bulls will need to rebound on Friday.
I'm amazed by the overractions on ESPN Game thread message boards about this series is over, the Sixers in 5, the Bulls won't win another game, etc.

| Good loss. I think the team needed to get smacked in the mouth to piss them off. We're gonna have to be mad and play the underdog role to win games with Rose out. Posted via VolNation Mobile |

The defense was the issue, and I doubt Rose makes much of a difference. 76ers shot 59%. |

| And huff just answer this question, even though your mind is set on Derrick Rose being overrated. Do you think with a healthy Rose at the point, any opposing team's PGs would combine for 46 pts. against him. Rose and Rondo are two of the best defensive PGs in the league.
With Rose, 76ers PGs in game 1 were 8-24, 25 pts, 4 assists, 5 turnovers.
Without Rose, 19-28, 46 pts, 12 assists, 0 turnovers.
Come on, man. I fully expect them to make the 2nd round, but the Celtics will embarrass them. |
