Chicago Bulls Ready to Take on Miami Heat in Eastern Conference Finals
When the Chicago Bulls took control of the Eastern Conference in the latter stage of the season they never let it go.
Now, a few months later and two playoff series down, they have to get past the former two-time MVP and a former NBA Finals MVP to get a chance at their own Finals glory.
LeBron James has been there before but without success.
Dwyane Wade has been there and won.
The Chicago Bulls, a young squad led by a second-year point guard MVP, have a few role players with experience but this will be a battle they haven't faced yet this season.

Yes, the Bulls did defeat the Heat all three times they played this season, but the postseason is a completely different animal.
Chicago coach Tom Thibodeau was quoted by Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times as saying:
For us, it doesn?t change. We want to try to keep the ball out of the paint and make our opponent take contested twos. That?s the big thing. When we?ve had some problems, it?s been what we?re doing wrong offensively and not having the proper floor balance, something from that standpoint.
That could be a huge problem in this series considering that their opponent plays defense almost as effectively as they do.
The Bulls offense goes as Derrick Rose goes and everybody knows this.
Chicago may not want to do anything differently, but they'll have their hands full regardless with this team.
LeBron, Wade, Chris Bosh and the Heat make teams change, now we'll see if the Bulls can handle it.
