Lebron hit a big 3 to send the game into overtime. But chandler steps up in the absence of Currry and grabs rebound after rebound and gets tip in after tipin in the last 6 minutes of the Game. 90-102 bulls win. In ot Ziggy was fouled out and the cavs just stood around watching James throw up jumpshots and tonight Nocioni had his number. Bulls get a well needed win against King James. Go Bulls! 40-31....... dont mean a thing without a ring! LOL!
Wow, amazing shot by LeBron. Just when I thought it was all over...bam he nails a long three. Oh well, impressive win without Curry. Overall great team effort. You gotta love how Scott's got 'em playing.
Exciting game. And please, tell me how it made them look better, could you? Did it make them look good cause they choked on a 95-88 lead? No don't think so. Did it make Ben Gordon look good when he drained it with relative ease over his head? No, it didn't. By any means, it made them look worse. You never want to give up a 7 point lead like they did with less than 4 minutes remaining. You never want a game tying three hit on you at the buzzer when you're up three. You never want to go to OT after having a lead with three seconds left. You never want that potential to lose a game after you'd lead for a good part of the second half. So, could you please tell me how that OT forcing trey made the Bulls look any better, cause I sure as hell don't.
I think he meant at a first glance, the win looks better. Not too often an OT game is won by double figures.

It's still the fact that it shows that sure, you may have won the game, but you couldn't get it done in regulation. To me, it's better to see a team win by 1 point in regulation than a team win by 11 in overtime, cause at least you know that they were able to hold whatever type of a lead they had (if any) and be able to win in regulation.
i'd rather a 10 point win then a one point win, whether it was regualtion or overtime. 10 point win in OT shows domination.

It doesn't show domination. Domination is shown when you win by 10+ in regulation. 10 point OT win simply shows you didn't have enough to win it in the regulation time.
I get home from where ever, i go online check the scores. See the Bulls won 102 - 90 in OT, I'm thinking we killed em in OT. And thats all that matters.

It's just to me, no matter how many you winn by in OT, it's still not as good as winning in regulation, even if you win by 10, 11, or whatever.
I think the Bulls responded well after that LeBron shot. Most teams would hang their heads or just play with a losing mentality. This group came after the regulation even more determined... that's what mattered. And from that perspective I think that's what made this game impressive for the Bulls.
I dont even see why you are even arguing. Its a win, 8 in a row for us. purplebOn9 - your exactly right.
