The Chicago Bulls were playing from behind from the first second of game one and remained that way until there were two minutes left. They went on a 16-1 run with 3:29 left in the 4th quarter and took their first lead with 2 minutes left and didn't look back. For the first time this year I actually watched Derrick Rose and he was so quick I couldn't even keep up with him. From the top of the key to the basket he was just too fast for the Pacers to defend all game and finished with 39 points. The Pacers played great most of the game but apparently forgot there are 48 minutes in a game not 46. They pretty much owned the Bulls but failed to finish putting them away. This may be a blow out series the rest of the way.
The Miami Heat had early trouble with the 76ers for a quarter and a half but then took the lead in the 2nd quarter and never looked back. The Sixers kept themselves in the game the whole way but couldn't get the lead back and only got as close as 3 points the rest of the way. It wasn't the prettiest game Miami has played by any means but it was efficient enough to get a game 1 win.
