The Chicago Bulls defeated the Atlanta Hawks in game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals 86-73. The Bulls led after each quarter of this game and locked down Atlanta in this game especially Joe Johnson. Derrick Rose received his MVP trophy before the game and Derrick Rose played like an MVP in this game scoring 25 points and added 10 assists. Luol Deng had 14 points and 12 rebounds and played tremendous defense on Joe Johnson holding him to only 16 points after scoring 34 in game 1. Carlos Boozer had another lackluster performance only scoring 8 points, but did add 11 rebounds. The Bulls came out with great tenacity in this game and they never looked back in this game. The Bulls were a team on a mission in this game and if they play with this intensity, the Bulls will have no problem winning this series. The series will now shift to Atlanta with game 3 coming up on Friday night. The Bulls come out of Chicago with a 1-1 series tie and that is a heck of a lot better than being down 2-0 going to Atlanta. If the Bulls come out with the fight they did in this game, game 3 will go to the Bulls and they will take a 2-1 series lead!
