December 2nd, 2016 by Jared Johnson Leave a reply »
The Chicago Bulls earned an impressive home win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday night by a score of 111-105. Chicago is now 11-7 on the season, while Cleveland is 13-5 and now on a three-game losing streak.

All evening, the Bulls took advantage of weak interior defense by the Cavs, scoring 78 points in the paint. Taj Gibson chipped in a season-high 23 points to go with 11 rebounds and five assists, Jimmy Butler had 26 points, eight rebounds and six assists and Rajon Rondo had his first triple-double as a Bull with 15 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists.

LeBron James had a decent game of 27 points, five rebounds and 13 assists, but he also had eight turnovers and had trouble handling the ball much of the evening. Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love combined to shoot just 14-of-35 for 35 points. The team's offense stalled for most of the second half.

Cleveland will look to get back to its winning ways in Toronto against the Raptors on Monday, while the Bulls play in Dallas against the Mavericks on Saturday.
