The Chicago Bulls methodically took care of the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday Night who would not go quietly. No D-Rose with the night off and it was See Red turning to the Spain National Team's Face Pau Gasol to carry the offensive load and that's exactly what he did.
Gasol came out the gates with 20 in the 1st frame and 28 for the 1st half with the Bucks having no one to guard him. The Bucks though wouldn't be deterred by Gasol's big night as they hung tough. Former Big Mac All-American and the #BBN Standout PG Brandon Knight led the Bucks with 20 points and five helpers. The Bucks 2014-15 leading scorer also landed on Jimmy Butler's Dawgs early in the 3rd but stayed in the game to finish it.
The Bulls winning 95-87 after losing the 2nd half 48-47 was led by Gasol's 46 points on 17-30 field goals and 12-13 from the stripe. He also grabbed 18 boards with Captain Kirk Hinrich's 16 points as the only two Bulls in double figures.
See Red moves to 26-12 while having a poor night from the field (39%) and the arc (23%). The Bucks playing tonight as NBA Road Kill (at least by the Spaniard's Perspective) falls to 20-19.
