Already the series between the Miami Heat and Chicago Bulls is more interesting than many expected.
The Heat after rolling the Milwaukee Bucks in four straight arrived in the second round healthy resting and confident.
The Bulls after surviving the Brooklyn Nets in the full seven arrived in tatters.
Yet Chicago's Game 1 win put the Heat on their heels and they responded with a rout winning by the largest margin in their postseason history while handing the Bulls their worst ever playoff loss 115 78.
That Game 2 also featured nine technicals two ejections and several confrontations.
We flat out sucked Bulls guard Nate Robinson said.
Still as LeBron James noted It's just one game.
In fact as Heat coach Erik Spoelstra elaborated
For Chicago it's almost a perfect loss. You get beat by a number like that and have guys ejected you can come back with a clean slate the next game with a chip on your shoulder.
The Bulls also come back home where the United Center will surely rock with more than 20 000 urging on the decided underdogs.
So what can alter the state of the series
