Bulls Looking Good After All-Star Break, Top Nuggets 116-99

Saturday, February 21st, 2009 | Chicago Bulls, NBA, Sports | No Comments

Friday night’s contest against the Denver Nuggets was a formidable one for the Chicago Bulls. Denver is the 3rd best team in the Western Conference, and the Bulls only had the services of 8 players due to 2 recent trades that left the Bulls bench depleted until physicals had been completed. It looked like a recipe for disaster.

The Bulls responded to adversity, however, and overcame a roller coaster 1st half to pull away in the 4th quarter, en route to a 17-point victory. The Bulls fell behind in the 1st quarter trailing by 12 points after the game’s 1st 12 minutes. But the Bulls countered with a 35-23 2nd quarter edge to even up the score by halftime. Ben Gordon led the Bulls in scoring with 37 points. Luol Deng (22 points and 12 rebounds) and Tyrus Thomas (21 points and 12 rebounds) both had monster games for the Bulls, while Derrick Rose put another solid effort in reduced minutes – 10 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists in 27 minutes. Kirk Hinrich also came off the bench to score 9 points and dish out 8 assists in 31 minutes of playing time.

For the Nuggets, Chauncey Billups led the team with 25 points, 6 assists and 4 rebounds. The Bulls kept Carmelo Anthony in check – 12 points and 8 rebounds in a limited 31 minutes of playing time because of foul trouble.

The Bulls are 25-30 and sit just 1/2 game behind the Milwaukee Bucks for the 8th seed in the Eastern Conference. With the solid play, the Bulls are also trying to make a push for a higher seed in the East – trailing the Philadelphia 76ers and the Detroit Pistons by only 3 games for the 6th and 7th seeds and the Miami Heat by only 4 games for the 5th seed in the East.
