Late Losses
One way to close out these games that the Bulls have let slip away, is to keep doing what they were doing to get the lead in the first place. They got the lead early in both games against Phoenix and New Jersey, but then got complacent and careless and started to fire outside shots, going for 3-point field goals. Maybe if they had waited, they might have had a chance to take the ball down and get a better shot.
After you get the lead, you've gotta bear down and put your foot on their throat. If you can close it out in the 1st quarter, why wait until the 4th??
