A fourth quarter comeback victory on the road against Lebron? Surely you jest. But tonight's heavy weight title match of coaching prowess between Jim Boylan and Mike Brown came up in the Bull's favor 101 - 98.
Joakim Noah logged 40 minutes of play tonight and singlehandedly contested Cleveland's final two shots. First, he altered a driving fade away shot by Lebron. Moments later, he ran out from under the basket to close out on Daniel Gibson's last second three point attempt. Two misses later, the Bulls walked out with an improbable victory.
Trailing by as many as 17 points, the Bulls caught fire in the 3rd quarter and finished the fourth quarter with a 24 to 13 point advantage. The rare display of offensive potency lead to a 53.5% shooting with 40% on threes.
Welcome to the NBA. Where Eastern Conference basketball happens.
