Chicago will come out far more aggressive and physical than they did in game 2. Heat players should be ready to match their physical intensity. The tougher team will win this series.

This is what I'm curious to see. I loved Game 2 so much because LeBron & Wade have been getting hacked & hit hard all season long but yet they still get no love from the refs. In Game 1 Wade didn't have any FT attempts. Game 2 we forced the refs to swallow their whistles in out favor because everybody had that attack mentality which is why we scored 56 points in the paint in Game 2. We both we're talking about how teams constantly play physical with Miami but yet the refs don't do anything about it, well in Game 2 the Bull-ssy's awoke the sleeping giants. I hope we take that mentality on the road for this Game because Game 3 is always the most important game of any series. We can't play soft because like you said Chicago is going to play very physical and with their home crowd on their side, it's definitely going to be intense. Time to bring out that road warrior mentality 8-)

best team always wins the series, shouldn't matter where we play.

Noah says the bulls will be there for game 3. Like they are going to actually show up physically to the game.

Yeah, Heat at Chicago will definitely grow some hair on this team's chest. If the Heat come out soft and hesitant, I don't see them winning; they need to be the ones to set the tone, take the first hard foul and let Chicago know we're not scared. Also, I read a lot of people complaining about G2 officiating so don't expect the results from G2 to carry over.

I didn't get to watch G2, so I can't comment on it other than the final result. G1 was funny though: Superstar HOFer Jimmy Butler had more FTAs than Wade and LeBron combined.

But I didn't blame the refs for the G1 loss and I had the utmost confidence in dominating the series because I don't think LeBron (1st half), Wade (2nd half), Bosh, Ray Allen, and Shane Battier are gonna go cold like that for 3 more games. We missed a lot of easy open shots, but I felt the final dagger was leaving Ray Allen and Mario Chalmers in the 4th quarter when we needed to get stops on defense. We were our own worst enemies that game and I believe this team would make the necessary adjustments after watching the film.

Also, I saw the highlights where Wade throws the ball at Marco B after the foul and LeBron swung his arm when Noah wrapped him up after the foul had been called. This is the kinda response I love to see from this team.! Too many times they just brush it off like they did in G1, but I thought responding to these kinds plays gets their adrenaline going and brings out the best in them.

Another thing I feel is important is getting inside Nate Robinson's head and containing him on defense. If we do that, we sweep from here on out.

Don't suck

Treat game 3 like it's more important than game 2.

I think it's a must to win 3 games in a row. No matter their toughness, we should be blowing them out every night. The depth and talent of our team has to kick in. Last night it did, everyone contributed. I don't think the Bull's can withstand our whole roster contributing, especially with their complications.

Hinrich probably comes back, don't know about Deng.

Rose... no comment. God it's so annoying with the media and announcers talking about him.

I think the Heat will take this one but it will be closer than Game 2. The game will take 4 quarters to take out the Bulls rather than 3.

In other news, Rip Hamilton can't even get off the bench these days. I remember last year Bull's fans were saying he was the key for the Bull's to get over the hump against Miami since they replaced him with Bogans. lol. Bull's got a good pick in Butler though atleast.

I remember in some Nets game he came he and ruined everything. This dude is supposed to be a vet and help lead the team. He has fallen off the map big time. He use to start, then benched, then doesn't even play. Not even in garbage time lol. I don't think he fits the Bull's persona, and would probably ruin their defense.

Simply put, if we come out with the same mindset, and play with the heart and effort we played with in game 2, the bulls have no chance. This team should not be able to score 70 on us and D has to be consistent.

Also we made or statement physically in game 2. We are clearly not getting pushed around, so no need to feed into it in game 3. If they want to get techs and flagrants let them but let's not get into it.

He's definitely under Thibs dog house. The fact that Daequan & Marquis Teague is getting minutes over him is funny...
