The Chicago Bulls put up an incredible effort in Game 1 to steal a victory in Miami, but haven't been able to duplicate the performance since and appear to be heading for a predictable exit. Though their defense remains strong, they are simply out of options offensively. Nate Robinson was woeful, and Joakim Noah hasn't been able score. They were blown out in Game 4 and will have to win two games in Miami to win the series. That doesn't appear likely to happen All that really remains to be seen is how much time the Heat will have to rest until the conclusion of the Pacers Knicks series.
Bulls shot 25.7 percent from the field.They had never before even shot below 30 percent from the field in a playoff game.

TNT's studio show right now is much more entertaining (and competitive) than tonight's Heat-Bulls game was.

So much for the Bulls giving the Heat a challenge in the second round. A waltz to the ECFs.

Bulls score 65 points and shoot 25.7 percent. So they'd win the Knicks/Pacers series.

LeBron's 27 Pts lead Heat to 88-65 victory. Nate Robinson (0-12 FG) struggles mightily as Bulls fall behind Miami, 3-1 in series.

Joakim Noah and Boozer are a combined 4-20 from the field. They've both had better games than Nate.
