Rose, Bulls trying to get their groove on

Two games into the NBA season, the Bulls are still waiting for a result that doesn't require an asterisk or explanation.

They looked good on opening night against San Antonio, an opponent playing the second leg of back-to-back games. Placed in the same scenario on Friday at Boston, the Bulls were blistered by the hot-shooting Celtics, losing 118-90.

Their brief road trip concludes against Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat (2-0) on Sunday.

"It took a long time for us to get in a groove," Rose said after the game. "I'm still trying to find my groove out there. It's going to take (more) playing and the team, we just didn't get in a good groove tonight. We can definitely learn from this."
