The Bulls know they have had trouble playing in front of the home folks and its has been well-documented the play has been particular bad right after the Bulls P.A. Announcer says, " From Chicago...Derrick Rose" then the smoke clears on end just beginning on the other!

The Bulls saw that memo and ran up a 50-44 lead at the break as the Washington Wizards never looked worried. After the break the Wizards took over in the 3rd breaking up a 59-59 tie with just over six minutes remaining in the 3rd for a 76-69 lead at the end of the frame. The Wizards ended that 3rd frame on 17-10 run highlighted by a nice mix of John Wall, Paul Pierce, Kris Humphries, and Marcin Gortat.

In the 4th the Bulls were back and forth back and forth never getting the lead but staying as close as two pints from getting it. Then with just under six minutes to go in the 4th with the score Wizards 85 Bulls 83 the Wiz Kids D.C. took off.

Behind tip-dunk by Kim K's Ex K-Humps and a an and 1 from Wall-Star and Bradley Beal "J" that lead quickly went out to 90-83 and See Red never recovered. The final was 105-99 and it wasn't that close.

The "Truth" Paul Pierce nets 22 points with six boards with Wall-Star adding 21 points and nine boards. All five Wizards Starters were in double figures as that front line of Ne Ne Hilario and Marcin Gortat gave the Bulls fits again. The Wiz shot 51% from the field and 80% from the stripe.  

The Bulls get 32 points from D-Rose but the starters failed again versus the Wizards. Jo Noah sprained his ankle at the end of the 2nd and Pau Gasol was under heavy fire again from Ne Ne among others. Both Gasol and Jimmy Butler added 13 points as the Bulls lose to the Magic on Monday and Wizards on Hump Day...go figure falling to 26-14.

Wizards move to 27-12 and lookout East it was all Cavs and Bulls before the season and now it has been all Wiz, Hawks, and Dinosaurs as we head into mid-January.
