PHILADELPHIA – Billy Donovan saw it every March in his days at the University of Florida.
Styles make the fight in basketball, and March Madness was the greatest example of that.
“Just being in college a long time, it happened a lot in the NCAA Tournament,’’ Donovan said on Friday. “Sometimes you get these matchups where, ‘This is just a hard matchup for us,’ or ‘We’re going to be a hard matchup for them.’ I think that happens in the playoffs in the NBA, and sometimes it happens in the course of the regular season.’’
That’s also what he’s seen his current Bulls roster go through this season, with the recent home-and-home series with Cleveland the best example of that.
