I was thinking going into the last game that Deng should be guarding Lebron more, but for some reason they tried to play Nocioni on him. I'm glad Deng guarded him more this game, because he has the length to bother Lebron, who hasn't developed his jumper fully yet. Deng can use his length and play off him a bit. Theres not a lot of people who can guard Lebron successfully, but I think Deng does it pretty damn well.
I'll keep saying it, the Bulls are slept on. They play in the east, and have played a harder schedule than any team in the league. Their schedule in 2005, after the next couple weeks, is really easy.

Come on - the Cavs were off tonight, everbody. Not making any excuses although it was the second game of a road back to back and the Bulls played up to their talent level for once. But if you actually watched the first Cavs-Bulls game you would have seen that Deng didn't give 'Bron any trouble. When Deng was in he was guarding 'Bron that first game almost exclusively and Nocioni had him when Deng was out.
Bulls won and rightfully so because they actually put some effort on to the court. Just don't think I would start making comments that Deng is some sort "Lebron-stopper" quite yet
