27-16 with the NBA Central gap closing and fast. The Bulls Madhouse Woes followed them on this night as the Bulls lose to "Believeland" as the Cavs all of a sudden look like they might just run off a few and maybe right to the top of the central. The came out Madhouse-esque with a slow starts and coming out of the motel sluggish after a mid-afternoon nap and lunch was not what Bulls Nation called for!

The Cavs were up 54-39 at the break and that continued in the 3rd as C-Town moved out to a 82-64 lead at the end of he 3rd. Bulls only had 8 turnovers but it was their inability to keep the Cavs off the offensive glass (20 off rebs) which is 20 2nd chance scoring opportunities.

The Cavs on 4th frame cruise control win 108-94 as King James goes for a game-high 26 points with "Get Shots" J.R. Smith adding 20 and Kyrie 18 points and a bakers dozen in assists. Cavs didn't shoot lights out but it was their work on the offensive glass. Russian Timofey Mozgov will help them in the middle immensely as he is a rim-protector and an inside presence.

Bulls get 20 from Jimmy Butler and 18 points from D-Rose as they need to fix it and fast. Is it Coach Thibs tight wrap on the squad as he never lets up? Is it someone in the core group always out of the line up with injuries not making excuses? Bulls fall to 27-16 with the NBA Central Gap closing and closing fast.

Cavs move to 22-20 and Bulls Nation and Cavs Nation remember the W-L on this date and look back at All-Star Break and see who will be in 1st place...and I know what your thinking Bulls Nation!

Bulls take a deep breathe and R.E.L.A.X. but just don't blow the game 7 lead in the East Finals...
