If only the Bulls could bottle what they had Tuesday night. Or better yet, if only they could play the 76ers every night.
The Bulls got right back to their winning ways, after having their seven game win streak snapped just a few days ago.
The Bulls will really be short handed when they play host to the Philadelphia 76ers tonight. Taj Gibson joins Joakim Noah on the sidelines, as Gibson is still bothered by the effects of the concussion he suffered Saturday night.
After a so-so start, the Bulls were given a shot of energy by the debut of Carlos Boozer. In Boozer's first nine games as a Bull, the team is 7-2 and all seven wins came in a row.
It was the first game the Bulls were without Joakim Noah and they trailed most of the game against the Clippers. Chicago made a push to comeback in the fourth , falling short by one point. If that's not enough bad news, Taj Gibson left the game during the third with a concussion.
LeBron James joining the Miami Heat was the signature moment during the free-agent rush last summer. However, it wasn't the only move that has shaken up the Eastern Conference standings early this season.
The Bulls were nothing short of astounded that Joakim Noah was able to play with his injury for the last 3 weeks. That injury finally necessitated surgery which was performed successfully Thursday morning.
The Bulls have potentially lost Joakim Noah for up to ten weeks. The Bulls' center will have surgery to repair an injured right hand.
Despite Joakim Noah's injured thumb, the center played against the Raptors and helped lead the Bulls to a 110-93 victory.
