I don't know where to start as I am at a loss for words imagine that a Sports blogger that puts up an average of 220 stories per month and I have nothing to say.
With the Bulls down 53-43 late in the 2nd frame Rose goes out with a reported hamstring tightness. The Bulls finished the game without Rose and 114-109 but hung tough. It was Nugs point god Ty Lawson taking full advantage of no Rose in front of him going for 20 points and dishing out a dozen assists. All five Nuggets starters were in double figures with Arron Affalo adding 19.
The Bulls get a game-high 32 points from the "See Red Butler" Jimmy Butler with 32 points and 9 boards including 18 of 20 from the line. Pau Gasol adds 22 points and grabs eleven boards with Aaron Brooks with 16 points playing heavy minutes due to Rose's absence.
Bulls lost allowing the Nuggets to shoot 50% from the field and the arc. They also didn't have All-Star and 2013-14 1st Team All-NBA Center Joakim Noah due to left knee and eye injuries. The Bulls fall to 9-6 and 2-3 on the Circus Trip. The Nugs move to 7-7 after starting the season 2-7 and that is five W's in a row for Denver.
