Nocioni Apologizes to Boylan; Bulls Beat Hawks

March 26, 2008

You might have noticed that Bulls guard/forward Andres Nocioni was fired up at last night’s game. Nocioni was fed up with the time he was allotted to play- roughly three minutes in the second quarter. He verbally berated interim coach Jim Boylan before Boylan sent him to the locker room without any supper. After the game and in talking with reporters this morning Nocioni apologized to Boylan and to the team. He remarked that he was out of line, and that he was sorry he lost control. Case closed.

Onto the basketball portion of the evening, which also ended well. The Bulls won their game against the Atlanta Hawks 103-94. Chicago took a lead into the fourth quarter, and unlike their recent trend, they were able to hold onto it, and closed out a win. The Hawks are not a great team, but a win is a win, and it would have really been awful for the Bulls to have lost the game while all of the turmoil on the bench was happening. All’s well that ends well.
