Sixers Top Bulls, Tie Series 1-1

Elton Brand slams it down while the Bulls just watch. BLEACHERREPORT


Great all around team game played by the Sixers on Tuesday.  Evan Turner and Jrue Holiday really stepped up and overwhelmed the Bulls defense individually and simultaneously all game.  The backcourt of the Sixers proved to be too much with Evan scoring 19, grabbing 7 boards, and dishing 6 dimes.  Evan looked in control much of the game and dismantled whomever the Bulls put in front of him.  Jrue was even more spectacular with his jump shot dropping and using that to set up his driving.  He abused the Bulls defense for 26 points and dishing 6 dimes also.  The Bulls were punished for going under screens and not pressing the ball the way they were with Lou all season.  This was the best performance of Evan and Jrue's young career together and gives all the fans and haters of the Sixers something look forward to. With great support from the best bench in the business starring Lou (Williams) with 20, Lavoy (Allen) with 11 and 9 rebounds respectively, and Thad(deus Young) with 8 and 6 rebounds, it made their job easier.  Andre Iguodala had a solid all around game, including playing stellar defense on Luol Deng.    I personally thought before the series began that they were capable of winning, but now with Rose down I predict they will take it in 6.  If you do not believe me check my comments to SportsTalkDaily last week.  Evan is and will continue to show and prove.
