The Chicago Bulls traveled to Cleveland on Friday night looking for a win to lock up the number one seed in the East. The Bulls defeated the lowly Cavaliers 93-82. The Bulls wrapped up the number one seed in the East and now will look to continue winning to possibly have the best record in the whole NBA. The last time the Bulls were number one in the East was in Michael Jordan's final season in 97-98. As for the game, the Bulls lacked the tenacity in this game and almost allowed Cleveland to get back into the game. The Bulls still are without that 'killer instinct,' to just put teams away, but to me a win is a win in the NBA. Carlos Boozer had a great game with 24 points and 11 rebounds. Derrick Rose was held to only 11 points and 8 assists in the game, as the Bulls continue to show that Rose does not have to have a great game in order for the Bulls to win games. J.J. Hickson had a fantastic game for the Cavaliers as he ended with 22 points and 15 rebounds, and he would have done more damage if Coach Byron Scott would have had him on the floor for longer than 32 minutes. Up next for the Bulls is a date against the Orlando Magic in Orlando on Sunday afternoon, as the Bulls look for win number 60.
