The crowd is finally into it. The Bulls are only down 2 and continue to scratch and claw. Wouldn't have expected anything less.

Bulls down 60-54 at the break. Bulls are hanging around -- they just have to slow the tempo down in 2nd half to have a chance.

Nets up 21-17. This is the wrong pace for the Bulls. They can't play this type of game for 48 minutes and expect to win. Got to slow it down

Bulls can't allow Williams to get going. He just ran down the floor and blew right by Nate Robinson.

Bulls are usually at their best when nobody thinks they have a chance. The difference is playoff stage. I still think they rise to occasion.
