Cavaliers Go Down In OT
The Cleveland Cavaliers who have the best record in the NBA so far this season, go down in defeat after Lebron James misses a game winning basket in the final seconds of game play, sending it into overtime, where the Chicago Bulls and specifically Luol Deng’s 3 pointers take control of the game and come away with the victory with a final score of 102-93. It also didn’t help that the Cavs 2 big men, “Big Z” and “Big Ben” were out due to injury.
The top 3 scorers for the Chicago Bulls were Luol Deng with 22 points, Derrick Rose with 16 points and Tyrus Thomas with 15 points. The high man off the bench was Kirk Hinrich with 12 points, who played his first game after a several months long injury. Hopefully the Bulls can now get back on a good pace with Kirk’s steady and consistent point guard play as he directs the chemistry for the team.
