I would say with how this series has gone THIS would be the most important game of the series. Has anyone been paying attention to other any other matchups? Is there another one out there with this much intensity?

QUOTE The Bulls took Monday off and flew to Boston at 1 p.m., just after MRI results on Ben Gordon's injured left hamstring confirmed he has a strain. The test showed no unexpected damage. KC
The Bulls list Gordon as day-to-day, but Gordon said at least three times in the aftermath of Sunday's stirring double overtime victory that he would play in Tuesday's Game 5 (6 p.m., CSN, TNT). Gordon already has played through pain with the injury given that it happened in the second quarter and he finished the game. |

I would say Orlando/Phillly has been the runner up to this. Philly would definately be the story of the first round if it weren't for us . Atlanta, San Antonio, and Portland have all disappointed |

Gordo will start.
QUOTE Despite a grade-two hamstring pull (grade-three being the worst), Bulls guard Ben Gordon will start tonight coach Vinny Del Negro said.
"He's going to try to play," Del Negro said. "It loosened up a bit and we're going to give it a try." Del Negro said Gordon will start so his hamstring can still be loose after pre-game warm-ups. It's also a wise decision considering TD Banknorth Garden is one of the colder arenas I've been in this season. "We'll have heat packs and bike so he can pedal and stay warm," Del Negro said. "We'll be monitoring it." Gordon emerged from the Bulls locker room at 5:28 p.m. ET, headed for the floor and reporters fell in line like ducklings behind him. Gordon sat down, slipped a neoprene sleeve over his left thigh and gingerly went to work. He made his first seven shots before missing one from the left baseline from about 17-feet before working his way "around the world" from that distance. He then stepped back behind the 3-point line and launched shots, leaving his feet a bit each time. Gordon then jogged and dribbled, doing a couple crossovers and trying to switch directions. After conferring with Bulls head athletic trainer Fred Tedeschi at half court, Gordon shot free throws before heading into the locker room around 5:55. Back in the locker room, Gordon said his hamstring felt the same as this morning, when he said it didn't feel any worse, but it didn't feel any better either. Gordon noted that changing directions on the crossovers gave him the most problems. "It felt all right, it was painful," Gordon said, "but it wasn't really game-speed. I don't know. It felt all right." And that's the biggest question: how will Gordon's hamstring respond at game speed? The Celtics and Bulls both intend to find out. |

Bulls have gotten a few TO's and a few ORebounds so far, have taken 5 more shots than Boston. Boston's just hitting 60% for now.
