Absolutely. Inexperience is a big part of it, between the players and coaches.

I find it insulting to the Bulls when I hear people say that in game 2 the Heat will come out with more intensity and win as a result of that. I'm sorry, but were these people watching the game? The Heat were playing with an over-the-top intensity defensively. To imply that the Heat lost that game because they didn't want it as much, took the Bulls lightly, or didn't play hard enough is absurd. They played every bit as hard as the Bulls. They just got beat. The Bulls made shots down the stretch and the Heat couldn't make shots (or free throws) all night even when they were wide open. The only tactical mistake I'd point to is trying to allow Chalmers or Ray Alllen to guard Robinson at the end. That was a disaster. Oh, and Wade foolishly jacking up that 3. WTF was with that??? Other than that, Miami got good looks, played tough defense, created turnovers....they just lost.

The game went exactly as I expected with the notable difference being that I figured the Heat would come out on top. I still maintain the Bulls can't do that 4 times in 7 games, but things certainly just got a lot more interesting.

The playoffs have finally begun.

Deng and Butler on the perimeter together is where its at. I've been waiting for a SG on the Bulls to take it to Wade on both ends of the court. Wade looks old, and bad, but we said that last year too. But a guy like Butler, will just not quit, he enjoys the grind like the rest of this team. I like the Bulls defensive matchups with Deng. Probably the only team that can matchup defensively with the Heat's small lineup.

If Heat go small.....

Chalmers/ Robinson
Wade/ Butler
Battier/ Bellinelli
James/ Deng
Bosh/ Noah

If Heat go big.......

Chalmers/ Robinson
Wade/ Butler
James/ Deng
Bosh/ Noah
Anderson/ Gibson

Guys, Jimmy Butler had to go to the bench.

Is Birdman strung out on drugs out there? He is making some weird decisions...

All this Rose returning for game 3 talk has me kind of excited. Being in the building if he were to return for that game would be a good return on the 'investment' I just made in tickets....
