-- This game, like Games 1, 2, and 4, looks like it won't be decided until the final possession.

Neither team has been able to take control of the game. Neither team has led by more than six points.

The Celtics looked like they were going to take a lead into the fourth quarter, but back-to-back 3-pointers by Chicago sparked an 8-2 run to close out the quarter and put the Bulls back on top, 70-66.

The Bulls already has four players in double figures, and their team basketball, along with their ability to score in transition, off the dribble, second chance points, and free throws are the reasons why they are up.

If this game remains true to form, the Celtics won't be happy when it is all over. Chicago has gone on a run to close out all three of the first three quarters.

Kirk Hinrich leads all scorers with 19 points. John Salmons (14 points), Tyrus Thomas (12 points, 8 rebounds) and Ben Gordon (12 points, 5 assists) have also reached double figures for Chicago.

Rajon Rondo is having another sensational game for Boston (16 points, 7 assists, 5 rebounds), as is Glen Davis (18 points, 5 rebounds). Boston's Big Two, Ray Allen (7 point) and Paul Pierce (11 points) have struggled so far.
