So tonight it is time to set an end to the losing streak at the Rose Garden.

Go Bulls!

Bulls 93 Blazers 100 with 1:30 left

Go Bulls!

96-100 with about a minute left after 3-pointer from Rose

Aldridge with 2 points and Gibson with turnover....2nd straight loss

:-(

Bulls again have bad FT shooting night 9-16

ok, I think it isn't the reason for the loss, but it didn't help

down 6 after Deng makes 2 points...good that he get the offensive rebound after he get his shot blocked

100-106

14 second left

Fernandez to the line

Fernandez missed the second

Korver hits the 3

Bulls trailing 103-107
