Employing a remarkable big-man quartet of Joakim Noah, Pau Gasol, Taj Gibson and rookie Nikola Mirotic, the Chicago Bulls undoubtedly possess one of the league's deepest frontcourts. But with starters Noah and Gasol ailing, the Gibson-Mirotic reserve duo must step up in order for the Bulls to make a deep postseason run.
Noah hasn't been the same player he was a year ago due to an offseason knee surgery in May 2014. The two-time All-Star has scored a total of eight points and is shooting just 18.8 percent from the field during the Eastern Conference semifinals, which the Bulls currently lead the Cleveland Cavaliers 2-1.
