MVP: Nene scored a game-high 24 points (8 rebounds 3 assists) and was spirited from distance in going 7-for-13 from beyond 10 feet. As good as Joakim Noah has been on defense this season, it was often the case that he didn’t have the muscle to compete with Nene.
X factor: Andre Miller got off to a slow start in the first half, looking surprisingly rusty for a vet (but also one who’s never been out of the first round of the playoffs). But early in the fourth quarter, once the Wizards had built momentum in the third, Miller scored eight of his 10 points on an array of crafty moves.—Gortat added 15 points and 13 rebounds.
My take–This is no upset. Both Shaq and Barkley picked the Wizards to win the series. the Bulls have no answer for the interior size of Washington
