Bulls Easily Beat Timberwolves

January 30, 2008

The Chicago Bulls ran away from the Minnesota Timberwolves in their game at the Untied Center last night. Chicago won 96-85 over the team with the league’s worst record. Kirk Hinrich scored 27 points to lead the effort for the Bulls, who played the game with only ten available players, due to the large amount of injuries the team is dealing with currently. Luol Deng is healing an ankle with tendonitis, Ben Gordon has a sprained wrist, Chris Duhon has a bruised left knee, and Joe Smith was at home with the flu.

When you look at the Bulls in these situations, you have to wonder why they aren’t doing as well as they should. The Bulls were up against a wall, with several of their best players out, but they managed to handle the game easily. Albeit, they were playing the team with the NBA’s worst record, but all the same, it seems that the Bulls play at their best when people expect the worst out of them, and play at their worst when people expect the best of them. The Bulls can work on reversing that formula in their upcoming games.
