The Bulls are the superior team here and if every game was decided on talent alone the bookmakers would go out of business. The Bucks have the momentum winning the last 2 and if not for an overtime loss on this floor in Game 3 Milwaukee would be looking to knock Chicago out tonight. The Bucks continue to give the Bulls fits and this one goes down to the wire.
