    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Change is good? Try telling that to Bulls coach Scott Skiles, who debuted his eighth different starting lineup Friday and his third in three games.

    Change is good!

    The Bulls broke their eight-game losing streak with a 105-91 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks in what was arguably one of their best overall efforts of the season. Othella Harrington recorded his first double-double of the season (13 points, 11 rebounds). Kirk Hinrich led the team with 18 points and was one of seven Bulls with 10 points or more.

    "We did a lot of things well tonight. Everybody contributed,'' Skiles said. "For whatever reason, we meant business tonight. You could tell right when the ball went up, we had a lot of energy. We looked like our team, and we haven't looked like this in a while.''

    The Bulls, who also won their first game at the Bradley Center since 1998 -- a 14-game losing stretch -- committed a season-low eight turnovers. They were a season-high 93.3 percent (28-for-30) from the free-throw line.

    Though the team had gone with a three-guard lineup the last three games, alternating front-court combinations, guard Chris Duhon was excluded Friday for the first time this season.</div>

    And we are back in the playoffs.

    Only in the NBA can you lose 8 in a row and still be in playoff contention.
