It started out as a blowout, with the Cavs leading by 17. Ben Gordon kept them in the game with 24 points and Larry Hughes' 25 points came mostly during the 2nd half to lead the Bulls in a comeback victory. Noah, Deng and Noc all had double figures. The scoring wasn't that great overall, but they won it with effective fast breaks. The magic number for the 8th spot is now 3... any combination of Bulls wins and Hawks losses. Based on the way both teams are playing and the momentum, I don't think the Bulls will make it. I'm just glad they're playing hard though. They played great 4th quarter defense against the best player in the NBA tonight... a sign of life, but can they keep it up for the rest of the season?
