Bulls
Hammer the First Win Home in the Playoffs with a Defeat of Indiana
Bulls
104 to Pacers 99
The Pacers were never taken for granted and
they proved their skills right up until the end of the game.
Derrick Rose brought some 39 points to the scoreboard and that had his
devotees yelling louder in support of his MVP status. Indiana's
Danny Granger got 24 point, and that was not bad either but in a close
game it makes a big difference.
Derrick Rose brought seven of his 39 point total, to the board during
Chicago's final attack at the net, and that was a grand
event.
Fans of all
ages are crying for Rose as MVP

Kyle Korver stepped up at the right time too, and non too soon.
Korver's deciding three-pointer nail in the Indiana coffin buried
this first game. When there's action on the floor, Korver is
often in the action or assisting the action of his team mates.
The winning of
the home court advantage and the first game help their odds for taking
the rest of series quite a bit, but watching the competition will keep
folks holding their breaths until
more is decided. The
Bulls are tied for the most wins in the league and winning 10 games in
a row also helps on the road to victory. The Bulls are serious
team, with some grand moments of humour, and some grander moments of
excellent game play.
The Bull's NOAH
takes a moment of respit, but
only a moment....

Coach Tom Thibodeau
brought the team his package of defensive paradymes
