Game 1:April 24,United Center
Milwaukee Bucks @ Chicago Bulls
Bulls - Bucks notebook
THE FACTS: Derrick Rose had a great game to open the playoffs against the Bucks. The MVP scored 32 points had 8 assists and 4 steals and lead his team to an easy win. Taj Gibson was really impressive ,looking as mature as ever and added 16 points along with 7 rebounds to his defensive job, making a great game in total and raising many eyebrows. Carlos Boozer was team's third scorer with 14 points ,5 rebounds,2 steals,2 assists and 3 blocks having a really good game.
From the losing side Brandon Jennings was playing on his own for most of the time. 23 points and 6 assists, but he had 10 turnovers,which spoiled it's great game on the scoring side.Jason Richardson with 12 points and Corey Maggette with 10 points and 6 assists were the next top contributors for the rather under-performing Bucks team
THE STAT:Chicago Bulls had 21 steals and 14 blocks,while Bucks had only 8 and 6!
QUOTABLE:"We're really good today.This is how we like to play and in fact,offensively we didn't had that high percentage as we wanted behind the 3 point line.1-9 is way,way to bad."
--Chicago Bulls' coach , Tom Thibodeau
HOT: Who else,other than the MVP, Derrick Rose. With his 32 points and his great all around job he was a catalyst both in offense and defense.Especially on D,he seems really improved.
NIGHTLY NOTABLE:Well this has to go to Taj Gibson. The 2nd-year pro was just fantastic for the Bulls. He came from the bench with great passion to play,and he looked, as we said before, as mature as ever.
NOT:When your name is Corey Maggette,and you're the most experienced player in this squad, you just have to do way better than this performance.10 points(most of them in the 4th when this were over) with 4/12 from the field is not good for an experienced veteran. Also Andrew Bogut failed to impress,scoring only 6 points and being rejected twice emphatically by Joakim Noah.FINAL SCORE:Chicago Bulls - Milwaukee Bucks 94-76
Jordan Brand Player Of the Game:Derrick Rose
32 Points - 8 Assists - 4 Steals - 2 Rebounds

For the poor Knicks,who in fact played really well offensively Steve Nash had a monster 41- point performance,in a game where four players combined for more than half of the points scored!!
