LeBron is playing at a ludicrously high tempo
"The Bulls are definitely not playing anywhere near the level they were during the regular season. They need to raise their game in a hurry to have a chance against Miami."
Miami meet Chicago in the Eastern Conference Finals and it's the superstars of the Florida team who can advance to the final two, says Nick Shiambouros
This much anticipated series gets underway in Chicago on Sunday evening after the Bulls beat the Atlanta Hawks 4-2 in a hard fought series to reach the Conference Finals.
The Bulls have not been overly impressive during the playoffs, struggling to put points on the board and that is is a huge concern coming in to this series.
Superstar point guard Derrick Rose is working extremely hard and has taken almost 30 per cent of Chicago's shots in the playoffs. Forwards Carlos Boozer and Luol Deng really need to see more of the ball to give them more scoring options inside the painted area.
The Bulls are definitely not playing anywhere near the level they were during the regular season. They need to raise their game in a hurry to have a chance against Miami.
The Heat come in to this series brimming with confidence after beating the Boston Celtics 4-1 in the Conference Semi-Finals.
LeBron James and Dwyane Wade have been playing at a ridiculously high level on both ends of the floor. They are in rampant form and will be very difficult to contain.
I think Miami will take care of Chicago in six games and advance to the Finals. They are the most consistent team in the Eastern Conference and should be able to take advantage of a Chicago rotation that is struggling.
The Heat trade at [2.12] in the match odds market for Game 1 on Sunday. I think this price is more than fair given their current form.
