Chicago Bulls vs. New Jersey Nets

The Chicago Bulls defeated the New Jersey Nets on Wednesday night 97-92. The Bulls finished the season at 62-20 and after the Spurs fell to the Phoenix Suns, the Bulls wrapped up home-court throughout the playoffs. The Bulls also had an undefeated month going 8-0 in April. The Bulls starters were not much of a factor in this game as the 'bench mob' came in and sealed the victory for the Bulls. The bench scored 55 points for the Bulls led by Kyle Korver with 19 points. Taj Gibson had 9 points and 8 rebounds off the bench and contributed to the Bulls comeback late in the game. New Jersey was led by Jordan Farmar who had 21 points for the Nets. For the Bulls, the regular season is complete and they end with the best record in the NBA. Not many people would have predicted to not only be number one in the East, but to finish with the best record. The Nets season has ended and the Bulls postseason will begin on Saturday at noon against the Indiana Pacers in Chicago. GO BULLS!!
