The Chicago Bulls and the Cleveland Cavaliers play Tuesday in Game 5 of their second-round series. The 2015 NBA playoffs continue at 7 p.m. ET and can be watched or listened to via the live stream and radio broadcast links below.
Bulls star Derrick Rose won Game 3 on a buzzer-beating game-winner, and Cavaliers star LeBron James responded two days later with his own buzzer-beating game-winner to win Game 4. James said later of his last-second fade away, which gave Cleveland an 86-84 win, that he wanted to end the game himself.
"I was supposed to take the ball out," James, who led his team with 25 points, told the Associated Press. "I told Coach (David Blatt) there was no way I'm taking the ball out unless I could shoot it over the backboard and go in. So I told him, 'Have somebody else take the ball out.' The play that was drawn up, I scratched it. I just told Coach, 'Just give me the ball. We're either going to go into overtime or I'm going to win it for us.'"
James, who played the fourth quarter with a sprained left ankle, took on added responsibilities in Game 4 to compensate for an injury-hampered Kyrie Irving, whom the team announced Monday had tendinitis in his left knee and a sprained right foot. Despite the injuries to both his legs, Irving intends to play Tuesday night.
Rose continued to look like his former MVP self, finishing with a game-high 31 points, and guard Jimmy Butler chipped in with 19 points. The status of veteran Pau Gasol, who has a strained hamstring, is doubtful for Game 5.
