Bulls lost 115-118. :man6:

This was such a big chance. But now the Bulls playing at home!

It is sad that they lost this game. But it was good to see that they can hang on even with outrebounded so bad. Good that they already won the first game.

Now home court. Need better rebounding.

So the Bulls lost the game yesterday with no timeout to make in the last seconds. It is sad that Del Negro had called all of them before. Perhaps this game also went to OT.

But who cares now. This game is lost. But it very good that the Bulls have won the first one.

Negatives from game 2:

- No timeout left at the end of the game
- Bulls were outrebounded 36 to 50
- most blocked shots also getting to Celtics players
- Bulls had no answer what to do with Rondo (19 pts, 16 ast, 12 reb)
- second chance points deficit, Bulls have 12 Celtics have 32

Postives from game 2:

- Bulls have a chance to win this game despite outrebounded so badly
- 14 blocked shots
- Nearly no bench contribution from the Celtics
- IMO Celtics really wanted to make a statement and win this game with a blowout - this don't happened
- Gordon's 42 points, it is good to see that different players can score high points (Rose 36 pts in game 1)
- fast break advantage, Bulls lead 21-10 in fast break points


The next two games at home will be difficult for Bulls and close games again. But with Bulls playing home I think Bulls have a chance to win both. This will be difficult and if the Bulls lose one of them, they showed that they can win at Boston.

Are the Celtics arrogant?

http://blogs.bulls.com/chicago_bulls_blog/2009/04/celtics-even-series-bulls-look-like-the-better-team.html

“I think we feel very confident because we feel like we haven’t even played good basketball yet,” insisted Pierce. “We win tonight and felt like we should of won game one and we just say, I feel like this is pretty much our C game. We were a team that doesn’t get give up 100 points in consecutive games, allow teams to shoot 49-50%. I think our best is yet to come in this series.”

It’s what you are supposed to say, though there didn’t seem as much conviction.


They showed us their C game for 2 straight games? I don't believe this.

Go Bulls!
