Randolph. The Thunder, three seasons into their relocation to Oklahoma City, are on the brink of the franchise's first conference finals since 1996, when the Seattle SuperSonics beat Utah in seven games before losing to Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls in the NBA Finals. The teams are vying for the chance to play the Dallas Mavericks, who swept the Lakers in the other conference semifinal. "We'll leave it all on the floor in Game 7," said Durant. This marks the first series in the 2011 post
Heat eager for challenge of facing Bulls' Rose Sat May 14 08:50:00 2011 EST

MIAMI (AP) - Stopping Derrick Rose, well, the Miami Heat know that won't happen in these Eastern Conference finals.

Slowing him, that's the more realistic goal. And it might be the top Heat priority entering this matchup with the Chicago Bulls, which opens Sunday night.

Rose is the league's reigning MVP and averaged 29 points against Miami this season, leading his team to three wins by a combined eight points.

Heat guard Dwyane Wade is one of the handful of Miami players who will take t

ly committed to memory.

Go figure. Chalmers is in a Final Four, the NBA version, for the first time. And his primary assignment when he's on the floor for the Miami Heat in this East championship series will be trying to slow down Rose, the Chicago Bulls star, the NBA's reigning MVP - and the player Chalmers made the shot of his life against in the 2008 NCAA title game.

Game 1 of the series is Sunday night in Chicago.

``It's a lot of different now,'' Chalmers said. ``Two different hypes.

Rose leads Bulls past Hawks 95-83 Wed May 11 03:31:00 2011 EST

CHICAGO (AP) - Derrick Rose attacked the rim like a fish going for the bait, driving at will and doing all he could to lead his team to a crucial victory.

Taj Gibson pitched in, too. So did Luol Deng, and now the Chicago Bulls are one win away from the Eastern Conference finals.

The last time they got there? Two guys named Michael and Scottie were wreaking havoc on the rest of the NBA. All they have to do is take out the Atlanta Hawks in Game 6 of the conference semifinals on Thursday.

Rose doled out nine assists, had just two turnovers and got plenty of help from his supporting cast to put Chicago ahead 3-2 in the series and on the brink of its first Eastern Conference finals appearance since 1998. Luol Deng chipped in 23 points, Carlos Boozer had 11 poi

hat David Morway will stay on as general manager.

The Pacers now will decide how interim coach Frank Vogel fits into their plans. The 37-year-old Vogel stepped in at midseason and had a 20-18 regular-season record. The Pacers challenged the Chicago Bulls in the playoffs before losing their first-round series 4-1.

The Pacers are coming off their first postseason berth since 2006. The team has four starters with three or fewer years of experience, and the franchise will have the financial fle

an eerie silence throughout the stands of the United Center in the closing seconds of Game 1, when All-Star point guard Derrick Rose appeared to turn his ankle - the same foot he injured against the Indiana Pacers in the first round - and the Chicago Bulls stumbled to a lackluster loss in the opener of their second-round series against the Atlanta Hawks. The next game, a chill ran across the arena. Yet, it wasn't out of fear of seeing their beloved club possibly getting buried by its opponent i
