Carlos Boozer's double-double wasn't enough for the Chicago Bulls. They fell to the Golden State Warriors on Saturday night.
During the Chicago Bulls' media day in September, Derrick Rose asked a simple question: "Why can't I be MVP?"
To say the Bulls are clicking on all cylinders right now would be a bit of an understatement.
When John Paxson kicked himself upstairs in May of 2009, he expressed a desire to spend less time in the limelight. He became the Bulls' VP of Basketball Operations, and installed Gar Forman to be his proxy as GM.

The Chicago Bulls' constant quest to get healthy might be extended, in the case of Carlos Boozer, by at least one more game.
If the Bulls want to make a serious run at an NBA Title this season, they're going to have to win games on the road. And that's something they've struggled with this season.

Wednesday's loss to the New Jersey Nets might not have been the best example of the Chicago Bulls this season. But it does represent something the 23-11 Bulls can improve.
After sitting out the entire fourth quarter last night and watching his teammates lose in New Jersey, Carlos Boozer told reporters "It was a coaching decision."
