Bulls at Hornets. Paul is day to day and likely will not play tonight. Tyson Chandler may return for the Hornets. Bulls lost the first matchup earlier this year in Chicago with CP3 scoring 37.

Tyrus with 10p/6r/2stl/1blk in the first quarter.

Bulls go to the small lineup to start the 2nd and suddenly NOLA is closing in as the Bulls can't get a rebound.

The big 5 are back in now, and the bulls are suddenly dismantling them. Repeated steals, blocks, Noah and Rose and Tyrus and Gordon suddenly scoring all over the place, Rose and Noah playing behind the back give and go on the break, yay.

This is the best I've seen the Bulls starters play all season. Very fun to watch.

We haven't had the greatest competition, but these 4 games are like a different team from the month beforehand.

Bulls still having trouble with the finish.

The Bulls are now 1 game behind the Bucks and Nets for the 8th spot in the East, and the Bucks just lost Bogut for 2 months.
