Tough loss. Yet another loss on the road, nothing surprising. Gooden started out red hot, and I'm sure the coaches were happy to see that. It was a nice three made by LeBron to send the game to OT, but the Cavs just got lit up by the Bulls. I think Bulls, are what, only a half game back of the Cavs for the fifth spot in the East? If so, the Cavs better get it together. They need to take that fourth spot from the Wizards for homecourt because if they become a fifth or sixth seed, that means starting off on the road, and you know how bad of a road team this team is.
Bulls are 5th seed in the East, One game behind the Wizards. Cavs are 2.5 games behind the Bulls at #6, Pacers @ 7, .5 game behind the Cavs.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting I-Miss-MJ:</div><div class="quote_post">Thanks LeBron, your three made our win a lot more impressive.</div> You know, I understand saying this in the Bulls forums, but not in the Cavs forum. That's pretty much rubbing it in to their faces that we won. And I still don't see how you see this win as more impressive. If anything, the Cavs comeback to end the game was the impressive part. They were able to play good defense down the stretch and they hung in there and went on to tie the game on one of the best defensive clubs in the league. The win in OT however, was not impressive. It showed that the Bulls collapsed down the stretch, and that's not something I as a Bulls fan, want to see this close to the playoffs.
^ I think I agree that the W was more impressive because it tested the Bulls' mentality whether or not they'd collapse after that stunning shot. Well, they came together as a team and played even harder in the extra session, to me they passed the test. And, you gotta bear in mind that LeBron would bury that shot regardless who's guarding him. In other words, the game went into OT because of how the Cavs played and had couple of plays went their way (Ilgauskas' lucky tip shot off Gooden's miss) and not because the Bulls slipped in the end.
