The Bulls forgot to play defense and allowed the Mavericks to hit 50% of their shots last night. Kirk Hinrich played tough as he scored 25 points, grabbed 3 rebounds and dished out 6 assists. Luol Deng had a great game with 24 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists. Ben Gordon came off of the bench as scored 18 points, but he only made 6 of 18 shots from the floor. Andres Nocioni got to start last night and scored 11 points & grabbed 5 rebounds.

If the Bulls want to be a title contender, they must play better defense and play with more effort every night….not just when they feel like it. The Bulls have dropped to 3-4 on the season.
