Halftime 47-44 Pacers Bulls 36% Pacers 43% Bulls 30-17 rebounding edge. Boozer 9. Rose, Boozer 13. No one on the pacers in double figures.
Bulls are playing offensively like they were in November. They are not deviating at all from the plays. Guys are not taking advantage of opportunities that present themselves. Kind of frustrating to watch.
I don't think it's a good idea for Noah to take the 2nd most shots on the team. 4 of our 5 starters, combined, are 7-30 shooting.
They're shooting an awful percentage because they aren't taking the open shots, they are trying to run the plays until they get a layup. Indiana is overplaying the tendencies and waiting for the last pass and just sticking a hand out and stealing it. Or Rose is getting the ball with 6 seconds left and having to force something.
