The Noah-Nene matchup is a wash. Nene is too big, and Noah can't handle his size down low. So Joakim has to make Nene work defensively and take advantage of that mismatch; Nene isn't an elite defender. I think Noah will show up the rest of the series simply because of his will and "heart." He plays too hard not to have an impact. They both posses elite basketball intelligence and understand the nuisances of the game. Extremely skilled at passing from the post and getting their teammates easy twos. However, Nene played one of his best games, while Joakim wasn't particularly impressive, and the score was still close. Plus, he's "day-to-day" Nene for a reason; I wouldn't be surprised if he gets dinged.
The key remains stopping John Wall's penetration. Athreeza, Webbie, and Bradley have been benefiting from open looks all year. Bulls did a good job game 1. The guy above is correct, Bulls just can't allow Nene and Gortat to keep feasting, but twos hurt less than threes. As a Wizards fan though, I know John is gonna ball the rest of the series. Beal will as well.

The only adjustment I see happening tonight is just more effort on the glass, getting more of those 50/50 balls.
