Bulls take it inbounds, Duhon threw it away, looking for another alley-oop. Kings find Moore inside for the dunk. 35-32 Thabo misses from the FT line, gets his own board and drives for the layup. 35-34 Salmons threw it away after driving and getting into trouble.
What a weird loking offensive set. Thomas and Duhon at the top of the circle. Thomas grabs an offensive board and steps OB with it.
I won't be happy unless this game is a blowout. Sacramento's roster is just awful. Who are these guys?
Udrich short off the front rim, Thabo from the FT line again misses. Moore boards, Udrich layup. 37-34. Miller almost steals it, but it's OB to bulls. Wallace and Smith about to come in.
Tyrus is exciting but he sure seems to have his head up his ass a lot. He and Du were clearly not on the same page there (missed ally oop... by 6 miles)
Duhon misses the 3, Gray over the back. Thomas and Gray to the bench. Thabo with the steal, drives the length of the court, makes a crafty layup and draws the foul.
Yeah, the Bulls definitely can't complain about calls tonight. But great shot by Thabo regardless. I can't remember the last time he looked this good. Hopefully Gordon gets some shots eventually.
Thabo hits the FT Tied at 37 Miller drives on Wallace, misses a tough bank shot. Gordon is shadowed, makes a little space and hits the 2. Bulls up 39-37, 4:59 left. Miller misses again. Great D by Wallace all game.
Gordon uses a pick and gets some space. Hits another 2! Udruch misses, they gong the bell for Big Ben. Duhon misses the layup on the other end. Jones misses a 3, Moore kicks out the rebound. Doubie hits a 3. 41-40, 3:47 left, bulls lead.
Gordon again double teamed, finds Du in the corner, 3 missed. Wallace rebounds, back to gordon, he feeds Smith at the FT line, wide open shot for 2.
Hinrich back in, thabo out. Nice minutes for thabo, though he still doesn't have an outside shot. 43-39 bulls, 3:05 left timeout kings
Noc is in for Duhon as well. Hinrich, Gordon, Noc, Wallace, Smith. That's our best lineup given Deng is out.
Did anyone else laugh when Gordon clapped his hands and demanded the ball from Thabo before heeding Joe Smith for a jumper? Heh.
