Bulls played like dog water in these 3 minutes, how do you go from up 3 to down 10 in the crucial final minutes of an elimination game? They started forcing shots and rushing the tempo because they got spooked when Miami caught fire, they needed to pace themselves instead of chucking up wild threes and contested mid ranges…

Wow. Poor basketball by the Bulls 🐂 in this 3 minute stretch. Hard to do it though when you're out there. Colby deserved a few more shots in this span. Dang

I guarantee you the Bucks don’t want this smoke already in round 1 and we’re secretly rooting for the Bulls the whole way.
This was a sad day for Beverley, as he was hoping for another play in ring.
