Which Bulls team will show up for Cavaliers series?

The Cavaliers had prevailed 99-94 as LeBron James posted a triple-double and Derrick Rose sat the final of his 20 games following Feb. 27 surgery to remove a small tear in his right meniscus.
Kyrie Irving sank two buzzer-beaters, including a 52-footer to beat the shot clock, and J.R. Smith dropped in a third, an off-balance, double-pump bomb from 40 feet, as one of his NBA record eight three-pointers without attempting a two-point shot.
