Tonight at 8:00 p.m. ET the Chicago Bulls, led by a rejuvenated Derrick Rose, will try to close out the No. 6 seed Milwaukee Bucks on TNT in an Eastern Conference Game 5 tilt that can be live streamed free by clicking this link. Bulls fans can listen to the radio broadcast on ESPN 1000, while Bucks fans can tune in on 620 WTMJ.
Rose is averaging 21.5 points and 7.5 assists in this first round series vs. Milwuakee and making plays that are reminiscent of 2012 MVP Rose. That was clearest in Game 3, when Rose hung 34 points and eight assists on them. He came back down to Earth a bit in Game 4 however, scoring only 14 points and turning the ball over eight times.
Bulls head coach Tom Thibodeau cited the turnovers as Chicago's biggest area of improvement moving forward. "We are going to have to be a lot stronger with the ball," Thibodeau told the team's official website. "They are coming through us. We are going to have to hold our ground."
Rose thinks the Bulls will rebound from the disappointing loss-the Bucks still needed last-second heroics from Jerryd Bayless to seal the win-and didn't lose sight of their series lead.
"If this was the last game or Game 7, it would have been totally different," Rose said of his Game 4 struggles. "But we play again soon, so get this game out of my mind. We're going to come out and play hard. I can say that."
The Bulls are also returning home, where they've won nine straight games.
