BULLS VS CELTICS 1-08-11

The defending Eastern Conference champs the Boston Celtics at there home court. The first quarter the bulls looked lackadaisical and nothing would fall. Then the bench like it has for the last five games sparked Derrick rose and the starters. Rose found his shot and took it to the hole on Rondo who seems to struggle guarding the quicker Derrick rose. The. Bulls defense really clamped down on big baby and forced him to take that 17 foot jumpers all night.  The Celtics could not really get anything going offensively after that. The Bulls defense smoothered the Celtics big three and took them out of the game. The Derrick rose floater was in top form as it seems to always drift over the defenders hands. Derrick Rose scored a season high 36 points. He was unstopable. Derrick Rose has become the true leader of this young Chicago Team.

Carlos boozer also had a fantastic game 22 points and 10 boards. His low post pressence really caused the C’s Big BabyDavis big problems. Scoring wise Boozer is the best in the paint whether he takes it to the hole with his spin moved drive, or his short close range jumper this guy has not lost a step. Boozer may be considered a triple threat because he draws the double team and can pass to find the open man . Another part of boozers game that bulls fans love is the ay he runs the pick and roll. Derrick and Carlos haven’t spent that much trims together but they run this pick and roll at the top of key and with a screen by Boozer and a quick dump off back to rose as he drives to the basket.

Ronnie Brewer and Kyle Korver both had impressive production over the last three games. Ronnie Brewer has been more active and has been the offensive spark the bulls traded for in the summer. He dropped ten points on the C’s which isnt alot by any means but his j has been coming along nicely. Plus we all know that he is there for his d, but whatever offensive porduction you can get out of him is a plus. Kyle kover should be a started for the bulls because bogans provides nothing. If we are going to compare hin to a player on the early 90’s bulls, he would be Steve Kerr. He is clutch and is ice cold off that screen from the three point line. That is his game so the offense should work to screen defenders so Korver can be that three point marksman that he is.

This game was truly a big game for this young team.  The Bulls started off sluggish but got the win because of there defense and offensive explosion from the future mvp Derrick Rose and the other starters.  The Bulls bench has to be one of the deepest in the league.  They have great roll players like Omer Asik and Taj Gibson stepping up there game and helping the Bulls outscore there opponents every night. With this win  the Bulls have continued to roll and prove that this young team is ready for the playoffs.  The Bulls prove that they may be young but there commitment to the defensive end keeps them in every game. This team is playoff bound and could really do some damage to the teams in the Eastern Conference.  This Bulls team has a low post game, pick and roll game, three point shooters, one of the best benches in the league, and one of the best defenses in the league.
