Deng needs to learn that if your not in a good position to score on an offensive rebound, to pass the ball out, and reset the offense.</p>

<div class="pre">LOS ANGELES (Ticker) -- The long road trip just got a little</div>less arduous for the Chicago Bulls.


Ben Gordon scored 14 of his 25 points in the first half and theBulls never trailed during a 92-73 victory over the strugglingLos Angeles Clippers on Saturday night.


Ben Wallace added nine points and 13 rebounds for Chicago, whichimproved to 1-1 on a six-game road trip that continues over thenext week with games against the Los Angeles Lakers, DenverNuggets, New York Knicks and Toronto Raptors.


Chicago shot 63 percent (12-of-19) and Gordon had nine pointsand four rebounds en route to a 29-16 first-period lead. TheBulls pushed the lead to 19 on Kirk Hinrich's 3-pointer with4:53 left in the half, but the Clippers pulled within 51-40 witha closing 9-2 run fueled by a pair of 3-pointers by Tim Thomas.

Los Angeles pulled within seven on a 3-pointer by CuttinoMobley, but Chicago quickly got the lead back to double figuresand pushed it to as many as 21 in the fourth.


Clippers center Chris Kaman continued perhaps the best stretchof basketball of his career. The 7-foot Kaman, who enteredaveraging 18.1 points and 14.3 rebounds, scored 21 points on10-of-17 shooting and added eight rebounds.


But he couldn't prevent the Clippers' fourth loss in five gamesafter a 4-0 start.


Prior to losing to the Bulls, who entered with one win, theClippers dropped a 122-105 decision to the winless Golden StateWarriors on Friday.


Thomas scored 14 points but no other starter reached doublefigures for Los Angeles, which played without leading scorerCorey Maggette, who missed the game due to a strained righthamstring.
