Regular Season Round 14: Chicago B. - Denver N. 94-92

Date: November 8, 2010
After a tough first few quarters, Derrick Rose came through for the Chicago Bulls. Rose scored 18 points, including eight during a furious fourth quarter rally, to help the Bulls beat the Denver Nuggets 94-92 on Monday night. "Derrick struggled a lot," said Bulls forward Luol Deng, who added 17 points. "That's going to happen because we play so many games. It was just a good team win." Taj Gibson had 16 points for the Bulls. Denver led 80-74 with just under seven minutes left before Chicago went on a 16-6 run sparked by Rose. Carmelo Anthony's basket with 15.3 seconds left cut the Bulls' lead to 90-88. Joakim Noah hit a free throw to extend the margin back to three points. Deng fouled Anthony, who made two free throws, to make it a one-point game with 11 seconds left. "They got the last run," said Anthony. "We made our run in the third quarter." Chicago hit two more free throws and Arron Afflalo missed a 3-pointer that would have tied it. Afflalo came open after the ball swung to him from Nuggets point guard Chauncey Billups. "Chauncey just made a great play," Afflalo said. "He made a great play. I'm trying to take the blame for missing that shot little bit. Actually I thought he was shooting. He was leaning, but he made a smart basketball play. "I took an off-balance shot and I couldn't square up like I wanted to, otherwise I think I would have made it." Chicago hit two more free throws and Aaron Afflalo missed a 3-pointer that would have tied it. Anthony led Denver with 32 points. *Courtesy of www.chron.com
