The Miami Heat defeated the Chicago Bulls 96-85 Sunday at AmericanAirlines Arena in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals. The Heat now lead the series 2-1. Forward Chris Bosh led the Heat with 34 points while LeBron James added 22 points.
The Heat turned it on in the fourth quarter behind Bosh, who rebounded to have a strong game missing his first three shots. The Bulls got 26 points from forward Carlos Boozer, but received another subpar game from point guard Derrick Rose. He finished with a quiet 20 points on 8 of 19 shooting.
Miami once again was solid on defense, holding the Bulls to 41 percent shooting. Rose, Boozer and Luol Deng, Chicago's top three scorers, all shot below 50 percent. In contrast, Miami hit 50 percent from the field and made 25 of 29 free throws.
