Derrick Rose nails a three over LeBron James (Video)
With the Bulls jumping all over the Cavaliers, Derrick Rose nailed a three pointer right in the face of LeBron james to extend the Bulls lead.
The Cleveland Cavaliers have had no answer for the Chicago Bulls in Game 1. With big stars like Derrick Rose and LeBron James doing battle, all eyes have been on the two superstars.
So far Rose has continued to get the better of James, hitting big shots to help his team build a lead as they try to steal away homecourt advantage with a victory.
In the third quarter, the Bulls continued to take the Cavaliers to school physically inside and with great shooting outside.
One such play came when Derrick Rose manned up and put a three right over James.
Thus far the Cavaliers have had no answer for Rose, who has gone on a scoring tear.
If he continues to hit the outside shot, then the Cavaliers are in very real danger of this series turning away from their favor.
One of the greatest things about playoff basketball is seeing stars take on stars, and thus far Rose is getting the better of James, much like he did in the 2011 MVP race.
