6 years waiting.  Great game by Nene.  Game MVP, not even a competition.  Completely dominated in every facet, his defense was fantastic.  And for as negligible as Wall was offensively, he was not a turnover machine against the best D in the league, that's all you can ask for in the first playoff game.

Chicago played well too. They made tough shots and they crashed the offensive glass hard and they didn't turn it over. They played their game. Their crowd was terrific for most of the game. They were physical and got some calls in the second half. They gave us their best shot.

And we absorbed it and still got that first win on the road. That's what is so encouraging. Our 3-9 won this game for us. Our best shot is still yet to come.

At some point this series, I would love to see Wall go into March mode and just become unguardable. If that happens, Chicago is going to be hard pressed to deal with it.

He played good defense too. I think our perimeter guys were great defensively. They hounded the Bulls and only had a couple mistakes leading to easy shots. Chicago was really reliant on making ISO stuff and getting offensive boards to score.

As for Nene, he was an absolute Beast. He dominated the future DPOTY. That's pretty awesome.

was Nene MVP or andre miller?  i thought nene had a couple of possessions in the 1st half where he totally ****ed up but miller kept the game at a 1 for the longest period of time

 

It was definitely Nene, he was pretty consistent throughout, on both ends of the floor.

Boozer was quiet in the second half. He can't run with our bigs. Looked gassed. Noah? Can we sign him? He is fun to watch unless your team is playing him. He fouls non stop but they can't call all of them. He moves 13 feet every time he sets a screen.
