Bulls upset Celtics in Boston in overtime thriller 105-103...

In his first ever playoff game Derrick Rose scored 36 points and had 11 assists while leading the Chicago Bulls to a 105-103 overtime thriller win in Boston. Tyrus Thomas scored 16 points including the game winning basket with 51 seconds left in OT. Eventhough Kevin Garnett did not play in this game it is still a huge step forward for this young Chicago team. I expected the Bulls to defend their home court by winning at least 1 but I never thought they would take a game on the road. Joakim Noah had 11 points and 17 rebounds in his playoff debut, he has really come into his own this season leading the Bulls in rebounds during the regular season. Look for Boston to come out on Monday and reestablish home court. The Bulls may make a strong showing but they will come up short.
CHIGAGO LEADS SERIES 1-0 OVER BOSTON

GO BULLS!
