Chicago Bulls vs. Utah Jazz

The Chicago Bulls defeated the Utah Jazz on Saturday night with a 118-100 victory. The Bulls allowed 100 points for the first time since giving up 118 to Toronto on February 23rd. The Bulls went into half-time with a 68-41 lead and they never looked back. Derrick Rose had 17 points in the first quarter alone and had 5 three pointers in that quarter. Both Derrick Rose and Luol Deng finished with 26 points for the Bulls. Chicago had 18 three point shots made in game and tied the NBA record with 13 3 pointers made in a half. The Bulls celebrated the 1991 championship team with the old Bulls coming back including Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Horace Grant, John Paxson, etc. Michael Jordan got a huge ovation as he deserves and Scottie Pippen got a big ovation as well. The Bulls are within striking distance of getting that top spot from Boston in the East. The last 17 games of the season should all be exciting for the Bulls. They will look to continue their six game winning streak when they play the Washington Wizards on Tuesday night.
