Saturday, January 10th, 2009 | Chicago Bulls, NBA, Sports | No Comments
The Chicago Bulls beat the Washington Wizards 98-86 on Friday night at the United Center. It was the first time that the Bulls had won back-to-back game since they beat the Wizards and Knicks at home on December 6th and 8th respectively. Ben Gordon led the Bulls with 22 points. Big men Drew Gooden (16 points and 11 rebounds) and Tyrus Thomas (16 points and 10 rebounds) both put in spectacular nights. Larry Hughes also poured in 17 points in only 20 minutes off the bench. If the Bulls expect to make a run at the 2008-9 NBA playoffs, they will need to get more consistent efforts from Hughes and Thomas to make that a reality. The Bulls are currently tied with the Philadelphia 76ers in 9th place in the Eastern Conference, just 1 game behind the Milwaukee Bucks for the 8th seed and 1.5 games behind the New Jersey Nets for the 7th seed. The Washington Wizards, on the other hand, have only 7 wins – the worst record in the Eastern Conference.
