The Chicago Bulls did not head toward another blowout loss as many were expecting before the game. Instead, with Luol Deng scoring 24 points and John Salmons adding 20 points, they won Thursday night’s game over the New York Knicks by 98-89.
The Bulls took control with a 15-2 run in the fourth quarter. Salmons scored seven points in the final 47.7 seconds, hitting a key 3-pointer—an encouraging sight for a team that was counting on him to help compensate for Ben Gordon, who took off Bulls jersey to put on Detroit Pistons jersey during the offseason.
Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah came up big after taking cortisone shots and the Bulls came away with a much-needed win.
As for the Knicks, they did not lose lead until 4 1/2 minutes into the fourth when they were still leading 79-75, but the Bulls scored 10 straight points and 15 of 17 in time to send the Knicks to their second consecutive loss after winning four in a row.
