Rose: Bulls need perfect game vs. Heat - ESPN (blog)
Mar 13th 2012, 19:30

Derrick Rose said the Chicago Bulls will have to play a "perfect game" to beat the Miami Heat in their second regular season meeting on Wednesday in Chicago, and he looks forward to the challenge of being guard by LeBron James.

The Bulls, whose eight-game winning streak was snapped last week by the Orlando Magic, have won two in a row since and sport the NBA's best record at 35-9. The 31-9 Heat have won three in a row heading into their game against the Magic on Tuesday in Orlando.

"To beat them you've got to play almost a perfect game," Rose said Tuesday on "The Waddle &Silvy Show" on ESPN 1000. "All your guys have to be on the same page, play hard and really play defense throughout the whole game because they've got so many people who can affect the game, even the guys who don't score like [Joel] Anthony, [Mario] Chalmers and [Udonis] Haslem ... They're definitely a hard team to play against."

The Heat beat the Bulls 97-93 in January, the latest in a string of close games between the teams. The past four regular season games between the East powers have been decided by an average of three points.

Aside from his team's matchup, Rose is looking forward to the challenge of playing against LeBron James, who had success defending Rose in the Eastern Conference finals last season.

"It's going to be fun," Rose said. "If you know anything about me you know I'm willing to take any challenge. For him to be sticking me shows respect, and all I can do is go out there and try to win that game and play smart."


Derrick Rose joined "Waddle & Silvy to discuss his criticism of the officiating against the Knicks, Dwight Howard and beating the Heat.
