    Who's watching the game right now? Tyrus is pissin me off, twice he could pass back out and he didnt, which ended up in a turnover and a missed turnaround.

    NBA.com is streaming video, but the commentators left so this game doesnt have any commentary.

    OK, I found it and watched Q2.

    Rose can't buy a basket, but he made his free throws.

    He looks a LOT better than JWill did. I'm a lot less worried about him at this point.

    And it sure looks like Del Harris is doing most of the coaching for us.

    They pulled out to a lead with him at PG and he's fed Gray a few times for easy shots. He looks way more aggressive, too.

    <span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:100%">Error-prone Pacers lose to Bulls with bad quarter</span>

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>A poor fourth quarter was the downfall as the Indiana Pacers lost to the Chicago Bulls 89-84 Tuesday night in the Orlando (Fla.) Pro Summer League.

    Andre Emmett hit a 3-pointer just ahead of the buzzer to give the Pacers a 59-51 lead going into the fourth quarter. But once in the final 10 minutes, it became a reversal of offensive fortunes. With Derrick Rose, the top overall pick from June's NBA draft, sitting out most of the fourth quarter, Chicago mounted a comeback behind JamesOn Curry and Aaron Gray.

    Curry scored six of his 10 points, to go with five assists, and Gray scored 13 of his 14 points in the fourth as the Bulls scored 38 points on 13-of-20 shooting from the field. The Pacers, meanwhile, struggled from the floor, hitting just 4-of-17.

    "We just couldn't guard Aaron Gray," Pacers assistant coach Lester Conner said in a release from the team. "We made him look like an All-Star. He was the key to their turnaround. We just weren't consistent on both ends, particularly offensively. And 42 turnovers in two nights is not a good statistic."</div>
