No Rose, Deng or Hinrich, no chance for the Bulls, as they fall to the Heat in Chicago, 88 – 65 in game four. Chicago scored a grand total of 9 points in the third period. The “fight” appears to be gone as the Bulls look like a defeated team. After a promising start, taking game one from the Heat in Miami, the Bulls have faltered and been dominated by the Heat in this very contentious series. LeBron had 27 points in last night’s victory and one would have to expect that this series will end on Wednesday night back in Miami as the Heat head home with a 3 -1 lead in the series. Of note: Bulls head coach Tom Thibodeau was fined $35,000. by the league for comments regarding the officiating, or lack of officiating in this series.
Memphis, led by Marc Gasol (23 points, 11 rebounds, 6 blocks) came back from trailing by as many as 23 points last evening at home to defeat OKC 103 – 97. Tremendous rally by the Grizzlies and then they held on to keep OKC at bay to take a 3-1 lead in this series. Durant had 27 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists for OKC. This series resumes on Wednesday night as well in Oklahoma with Memphis in control at 3-1. Have to think OKC may have a shot at taking game five on their home floor.
Tonight, Knicks and Pacers (surprising Pacers hold 2-1 lead in series) and Golden State at San Antonio, all tied up at 2-2!
