Bulls Slide Continues
The Chicago Bulls have managed to mix it with the Cleveland Cavaliers however in the end it was another loss to see the Bulls go 0-10 over the last ten matches.
Playing at home the Bulls fans gave LeBron James a good cheer when he was introduced during the pre-game ceremonies. The fans clearly would like to see him pull on the Bulls uniform next season.
It was LeBron that made the difference when he re-entered the game with 7:04 left to play and the Bulls leading 75-74. He score 13 points down the stretch to give the Cavs a 92-85 victory.
In what was a milestone game for LeBron he scored 29 points including points that took him to 15,000 career points. He became the youngest player in the NBA to reach that milestone bettering Kobe Bryant’s mark by more than two years.
James reached the milestone at 25 years and 79 days and was playing his 540th game. Bryant was 27 years and 136 days we he reached the milestone. Bryant took 657 games to reach that mark.
For the Bulls they are hoping to see Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah return to the lineup, possibly on Saturday night against the 76ers. The other injured starter Luol Deng is out for another two weeks and maybe the season.
The Bulls now find themselves in ninth spot on the Eastern Conference ladder at 31-37. The next team is the Toronto Raptors with a 33-34 record. The Raptors have nearly been as bad as the Bulls over recent times with an 2-8 record.
It remains to be seen if the Bulls can turn things around with the return to the team of Rose and Noah.
