Whether or not it was actually effective, it did slow down momentum and give the bulls a chance to regroup. I would like to see it used in such situations in the playoffs when needed. I am not a fan of the offensive rebounds, but I am a fan of forcing long shots  Watching the game, I understood the keeping Rose out of foul trouble, but my initial feeling was the Heat were on a run, starting to break out a lead, and Thibs ran it to through a speed bump in the roll they were on.
