The 2015 NBA playoffs continue Wednesday with Game 2 of the second-round series between the Chicago Bulls and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Tipoff is at 7 p.m. ET. Watch the live stream or listen to the radio broadcast via the links provided below.
Chicago stunned Cleveland on Monday with a 99-92 win in Game 1, backed behind Derrick Rose's 25 points. Rose showed flashes of his former MVP self, from three pointers to driving fearlessly to the rim. Rose admitted after the game that he has a newfound appreciation of basketball after missing more than 180 games since 2012.
"I just appreciate everything," he told the Associated Press, "getting back on the floor and just every aspect of basketball. It's allowed me to change my life and my family's life. I owe so much to this sport. I'm just trying to roll with it."
Pau Gasol added 21 points and 10 rebounds, and Jimmy Butler chipped in with 20 points.
Cleveland, meanwhile, looked like a team missing two of its starters. Both Kevin Love and J.R. Smith were out for Game 1 - they'll also miss Game 2 - and left the Cavaliers undermanned. Kyrie Irving led with 30 points, Iman Shumpert followed with 22 points and LeBron James chipped in with 19 points, nine assists and 15 rebounds. Despite almost finishing with a triple-double, James admitted he - and the rest of the team - needed to play better.
"We all have to be better," James said. "I have to be better. I wasn't that good."
