It's the live blog of the Brooklyn Nets vs. Chicago Bulls in Game 5 of this NBA Playoff game. Can't watch the Nets vs Bulls? Can't listen to them on the radio? No worries, we bring you a play-by-play with scoring updates, stats and commentary as Game 5 is set to tip off.
The Bulls have shocked the world. They are up 3-1 so far through the series and the No. 5 seed is close to eliminated the No. 4 seed in the standings. The Bulls have played scrappy ball, they've played with a lead and they have completed comebacks in the three games they have won. Many thought the injury of Joakim Noah was going to derail their playoff plans, but he has made solid contributions to the team's success. Carlos Boozer has played like a true All-Star and Nate Robinson might be the best Sixth Man off the bench.
The Nets have been struggling, despite playing well through spurts. They couldn't close out Saturday's game against the Bulls and it could be easily said that the Chicago crowd had something to do with it. However, with Brook Lopez healthy and Deron Williams playing well, it's hard to feel bad for the Nets. These two guys have to step up and close the deal with the rest of the team struggles.
Lopez has totalled 90 points, Williams has 80. while Joe Johnson has added 70 in the first four games of the series. For Chicago, Boozer has led the way with 81 points as the Bulls have averaged 100 points per game, which is surprising for a team dominated by defense. Of course, a three overtime game will surely help those totals.
Will this game be close? Will the Nets be able to pull away early and hold on to their lead? We can only find out as the game is set to begin
