The Chicago Bulls he lives year-round Luol Deng, so what he was doing little against LeBron James and Miami Heat in game 1 of Conference final is shocked the.
Hit big shots? Hitting advice? Limit the most talented player of the game? Check, check and check huge.
The Bulls lead the heat 1-0 after a 103-82 victory Sunday and a large ground which is Deng. It was mark 21 points, to capture seven rebounds, and to contribute to four interceptions while neutralizing James in individual overall performance which helped to lift Chicago to an impressive victory.
Yes, Derrick Rose was up to his usual tricks of MVP, scoring 28 points, but it was Deng providing big assistance if it has been registered or fight against the King.
"It's Luol Deng," Carlos Boozer of Chicago said. "He is a hero unknown to us." It should have been an All-Star Game this season. It's a normal game for Lu. He played most of best player the other teams - or the second best player, whatever the case may be. It marks for us, strike big shots in clutch for us, the bouncing ball, is a great leader, always to inspire us. "Luol need get more love".
If he keeps this, which should not be a problem. Game 2 is Wednesday at the United Center, but the Bulls are certainly not write off the coast of Miami.
"They have lost big games and come out aggressive the next day," Deng said.

They also got hammered on the glass, with Chicago outrebounding their 45-33 and crushing 31-8 on second-chance points.
Now, they are in a hole.
"Everyone understands that we are disappointed about the game last night and we still have an opportunity, and sometimes you must have amnesia enter in game 2," coach Erik Spoelstra said. "You can not just let go, the next few days 2? that we will work to solve some of these challenges that we had last night." But we still have to understand that Wednesday is an opportunity for us. I don't care. Sometimes there are of good performance, bad performances in the playoffs. "It is really not relevant, that it really boils just to a victory and a loss".
Their chances would be certainly better if James performed as it is able.
He scored just 15 points on 5-of-15 shots. If it was Deng sticking to him or the great men, he simply had no place to operate and was essentially a non-facteur in the game.
He appeared fairly well to the move at the beginning when he blocked stacking of Deng in the opening seconds and fed Dwyane Wade for a fastbreak slam.
Then, he picked off the coast of a pass by Rose and dunk was broken, and it did everything in the first 40 seconds. He also picked up two fouls in the first quarter and two of its four-digit business, committed with Joakim Noah undressing him and Deng ousted a pass, and it was not found in the second half.
In the third quarter, when the upgraded Bulls Miami 24-15, James scored two points and attempted four shots. At one point, he loses the ball near the bench in Chicago and blocked a few seconds later try to go to individual against Taj Gibson.
James hit a 3 at the beginning of the fourth, but did not score another point. Deng was a great reason - but not the only reason - it fought.
He had help from Gibson, Noah and same Omer Asik. The Bulls were quick to do rotate and plug gaps, making it difficult for James and Wade get to the rim.
