NBA Playoffs -- Bucks stave off elimination, win Game 4 thriller, 92-90 By Hector Posa PhilBoxing.com Mon, 27 Apr 2015  MILWAUKEE -- The Chicago Bulls were 1.3 seconds away from sweeping their first-round series on Saturday afternoon. But 1.3 seconds can be an eternity in the NBA and the improbable always happens. And that's exactly what transpired when Jerryd Bayless escaped Derrick Rose's guard a made a series saving lay-up that gave the Milwaukee Bucks a 92-90 Game 4 victory at the BMO Harris Bradley Center. The thriller sliced Chicago's lead in this best-of-7 series to 3-1. "I put that all on me. I just wasn't paying attention to the ball,' Rose said of the defensive lapse. The former MVP recorded 14 points and 6 assists, but he also had 8 turnovers. He played for 39 minutes after logging 48 minutes in Game 3 two nights before. Jimmy Butler established a career playoffs high of 33 points while Pau Gasol added 16 points and 10 boards, but the Bulls had 28 turnovers that produced 39 Bucks points. "When you turn the ball over like that you're not going to have success," Bulls head coach Tom Thibodeau said during his post game press conference. The Bulls hope to find redemption on Monday night (Tuesday AM in Manila) when they host Game 5 at the United Center in Chicago. A win will propel Rose and company to the second round against, in all likelihood, the Cleveland Cavaliers. O.J. Mayo finished with 18 to pace the Bucks. Jared Dudley had 13 points and five dimes. Giannis Antetolounmpo and Kris Middleton contributed 10 apiece. Click here to view a list of other articles written by Hector Posa.  |
