Where would the 2014-15 Chicago Bulls be without the services of one Jimmy Butler who is the best player from Marquette University in the Logo not names Dwayne or Doc. The "See Red Butler" making play after play down the stretch helps the Bulls stay in the win column with no D-Rose with a game-high 31 points in the Bulls 103-97 victory.

The Grizzlies didn't make it easy but Grizz lead man Dave Joerger did sitting Mike Conley Jr. and Marc Gasol for some of the 3rd frame and half of the 4th. What was really surprising was the benching of one Zach Randolph as there should be more to that story later.

The Bulls won the game by for one taking care of the Spalding orange (9 turnovers). Two they shot an amazing 29 for 33 from the charity stripe including Butler 9 for 9. Lastly the Bulls were +24 points from deep as Memphis could not find their Money Ball. I told you in "Playbook" earlier today that Aaron Brooks and Nikola Mirotic would be a factor and they were exactly that! Mirotic nets 27 points and eight boards shooting 6 for 6 from the Arc as Montenegro needs to stand up for their star! Brooks added 17 points as Grizz reinforcements had no answer for them.

Mike Conley Jr. led the Grizz with 21 points hitting some big shots down the stretch keeping the Grizz close. Marc Gasol added 13 points and ten boards as that 2 for 13 from the Arc the Grizz shot put them in the "L" column!

Bulls move to 17-9 while the Grizz falls to 21-5...
