HEAT 88 BULLS 95 F OT...All-Star JO with "Pops" YANNICK paying close attention and the BULLS rally to get past the CHAMPS 305 in EXTRAS...WEST SIDE Story Report "BULLS will be in the East Semis" #BULLSnation #SeeRed #ChiCitySports

The Bulls could have folded when they were down in the 3rd frame by a dozen but didn't. Led by a Power Surge from All-Star Joakim Noah the Bulls hit the Miami Heat with a Roundhouse Right in Extras and beat the Heat 95-88.

Bulls closed the game in Extras with a 9-2 run as the Heat knows what the Bulls are made of and to beat them you better bring your Hard Hat and A-Game or you will leave the Madhouse with an "L". Bulls PG D.J. Augustin led the Bulls with 22 points as he hit four Money Balls. The Player of the Game was All-Star Jo Noah playing like he always does like every game is his last with 20 points, grabbing a dozen Oranges, and seven helpers with five blocks as only Jo can. The Heart and Soul of See Red as to beat the Bulls you must match his intensity and fire and take him out first. The "See Red Butler" locking Horns with the King all game long had 16 points and hauled in eleven boards while giving LeBron fits on Defense. He just made it difficult or the King and for the great ones that from a defensive standpoint is all you could ask for.  

Dwayne Wade led the Heat with 25 points as he and 17 at the break. King James had a quiet 17 points, nine boards, and eight helpers and almost messed around and got a triple-Double on an off night. Bosh added 15 and Norris Cole eleven points as the Heat just could not match the level of play the Bulls were playing with in Extras and that was the ball game. When they meet in the East Semis the Heat will win...bit the Bulls will take the "H" and the "E" off the jersey as the Heat move onto the next series.

Bulls move to 35-28 with the Heat falling to 43-17...
