The Miami Heat shut down the Chicago Bulls in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals thanks to Chris Bosh and some great defense.

The Miami Heat beat the Chicago Bulls 96-85 in Game 3 on Sunday night.  Chris Bosh erupted for 34 points on 13-for-18 shooting from the field.  Another great defensive effort by the Heat helped hold the Bulls to only 85 points.  Derrick Rose was only able to score 20 points while shooting 8-for-19.  It was another subpar game for the 2011 NBA MVP.

Game 4 on Tuesday night is a must-win game for the Chicago Bulls.  The Bulls will not have a legitimate chance to come back from a 3-1 deficit if they are unable to win tomorrow night.  Derrick Rose will have to rebound from two lackluster games against the Heat.  Rose had a good effort in Game 1.  He scored 28 points on 22 shots.  It wasn't a coincidence that the Bulls won that game by 21 points.  As D-Rose goes, so go the Bulls.
