This is one of the best games I seen Chicago play this year.  The Bulls hosted the New Orleans Hornets and they came out on fire, shooting the ball extremely well and playing some lock down D.  Once the Bulls got the lead to double digits they never looked back, fending off the Hornets and their two superstars.  Chicago beat the Hornets both times this year giving them a sweep on the season.  The final score ended at 97-79.

The top three leading scorers for the Bulls were Ben Gordon with 27 points, John Salmons with 24 points and Brad Miller with 15 points off the bench.  The team as a whole shot 47% field goal shooting and committed only 7 turnovers.  The Bulls are 7 games below 500 and need to get a nice winning streak going to have a chance at getting in the Playoffs this year.
