Noah was injured midway through beats by dre earphones cheap the third quarter of Game 3 when he stepped on Andre Iguodala’s foot driving the lane and crashed to the court. Noah instantly grabbed his left ankle in pain. Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said Noah felt better Sunday.
Boozer actively did his best to keep the Bulls in the game. He played through foul trouble to score 18 points through three quarters (matching his combined total for the first two games) and he fought for some of the tough rebounds Noah would grab.
It wasn’t enough.
Iguodala stopped a Bulls run in the third with a 3 for a 57-56 lead. Bad leg and all, he still soared for a thunderous dunk on the break in the first half for an eight-point lead. One of the worst fourth-quarter foul shooters in the NBA, Iguodala even made both with 26.6 seconds left.
Game 4 lacked the electric atmosphere early that accompanies a postseason game because the 10-mile Broad Street Run was routed in front of the sports complex. The Wells Fargo Center was barely half full by tip and the announced crowd of 20,142 needed time to warm up.
Iguodala shot 23 for 51 from the line during the final quarter this season, which is not good at any level of basketball. Take the game into the final three minutes and Iguodala was just a 33 percent (6 for 18) shooter from the line. Needless to say, in clutch situations at the end of a tight game, anyone else in a uniform might have been a better option.
But Iguodala stepped up to the line, went through his routine and buried two straight shots to take a tight, four-point game and turn it to a insurmountable six-point lead. There was no way the Bulls were going to come back now. Iguodala had iced the game and maybe even the series as the Sixers took a commanding, 3-1 lead in the best-of-seven quarterfinals round
Eight years into his NBA career, Iguodala has not been out of the first round of the playoffs. Actually, he’s never been on a team that has won three playoff games before, either. So Iguodala may cede the spotlight to the young players on the team like Jrue Holiday, Evan Turner and Thad Young, but in a sense it’s very much beats by dre pro cheap new ground for him, too.
Because of that, Iguodala might sound like a coach when talking about his teammates and what they have to do in Game 5 in Chicago on Tuesday night.
