Nothing new when it comes to Chicago, the Bulls continue to play hot and cold, so after three losses in the last four matches, they played the right way last night and registered a victory...
And the victim of the "bulls" were the "hornets" - the team from "United Center" defeated Charlotte away (117:110). It was Chicago's sixth consecutive victory in duels with the Hornets.
Billy Donovan's team was led to victory by the tandem Kobi White - Nikola Vucevic.
Montenegrin center achieved a double-double (33 points, 22 rebounds) in less than 12 minutes on the field, and had three assists and two blocks, while White finished the match with 35 points.
"We couldn't stop White. Vucevic and he have a really good relationship," said Miles Bridges, Charlotte's "four", after the match.
The aforementioned Bulls tandem was followed by Ajo Dosunma (16 points) and DeMar DeRozan (15).
With the Hornets, Bridges was the best with 30 points.
The evening in the NBA was also marked by Damian Lillard's return to Oregon - the guy who after 11 years in Portland moved to Milwaukee to his former club scored 25 points, but left the "Moda Center" with his head bowed.
