    They looked really, really tired the last game. I would not be surprised if we won because all season long they did it when I didn't give them the chance to win! However, they dont have enough depth.

    Yeah, they have a chance to win Game 5. I'm not sure what their chances are to win the next 3 in a row, but game 5 is certainly within reach.

    Wow. I think we're so done. Put a fork in us.

    They know all our plays, and our players. We don't have a real variety to throw at them.

    I think we've shown that with all of our players dialed in and the Heat playing at less than 100% we can give them a run for their money. (Games 1 and 3).

    We're on the verge of losing 4 straight to exit the playoffs. It's hard to say we were giving them a run for their money when they beat us twice in Chicago.

    Maybe game 2 is what the Heat would do to us if they played hard all 48 minutes instead of playing down to their competition and trying to coast.

    I think a game 5 win is unlikely, because Heat will take care of their business and home court.

    But a Bulls win really is within reach.

    Game 5 chance to win in Miami: 45 %

    I don't think they will win tonight.

    But they have surprised me many times this year.

    If the Heat are fully dialed in then our chances are slim.

    But the Heat aren't always dialed in, and we're a mentally tough team.

    So if Lebron is in one of his moods, our rotations are tight on defense, and Nate gets a bout of overconfidence then things could be interesting.

    Wade is a gametime decision. That helps :)
