Regular Season Round 136: Chicago B. - Washington W. 98-79
Date: March 15, 2011
The Bulls aren't chasing anymore. For weeks, coach Tom Thibodeau has tried to downplay expectations in the chase for the Eastern Conference's top seed, repeating over and over that the Bulls were the ones doing the pursuing of the defending conference champion Celtics. Not anymore. The Bulls downed the Wizards 98-79 Tuesday night, posting their 12th straight victory at the United Center and their second seven-game winning streak this season. In the process, the Bulls took a half-game lead over the Celtics for the No. 1 playoff seed with 16 to play. Not surprisingly, Thibodeau preferred talking about the Bulls' defensive collapses rather than the significance of overtaking the Celtics. "The second-quarter defense was very poor," Thibodeau said. "Our floor balance was bad. (Jordan) Crawford got going on us. I didn't like our whole defense the whole game. I didn't think we contained dribble penetration. They got to loose balls." Derrick Rose scored 23 points, Luol Deng added 20 and Keith Bogans contributed a season-high 17 to lead the Bulls, who played without Carlos Boozer, which was expected, and Joakim Noah, which was not. Noah arrived at the morning shootaround ill with nausea and team officials sent him home. He rested all afternoon but didn't come to the United Center. *Courtesy of www.wgnv.com
