In East finals, Luol vs LeBron a key matchup

Published May. 16, 2011 8:40 p.m. ET

The Chicago Bulls are up 1-0 in their best-of-seven showdown with the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference finals.

Derrick Rose was up to his usual MVP tricks, scoring 28 points in Sunday night's 103-82 victory. But it was Luol Deng with the big assist, clamping down on LeBron James. The King finished with just 15 points on 5-for-15 shooting and was quick to point out the Bulls ''did a great job'' on defense.

Deng also added 21 points, seven rebounds and four steals while neutralizing James.
