Morning Box Score: Bulls Take Wind From Clippers' Sails

The red-hot Bulls kicked off their second west coast road trip of the season in Los Angeles with a 106-88 win over the Clippers at the Staples Center. The win snapped a 9-game home win streak for the Clippers and avenged a December loss to the Clippers at the United Center.

Derrick Rose led the Bulls with 32 points and 11 assists, aided capably by the resurgent Luol Deng's 26 points and 6 rebounds and Carlos Boozer's 16 points and 10 boards. Deng has emphatically made his candidacy to be included on the Eastern Conference All-Star team in recent games.

The Staples Center crowd didn't leave home completely deflated, though, as Clippers star Blake Griffin tore the court up with 32 points, 13 rebounds, 7 assists and this alley oop over Kyle Korver that he called for at halfcourt.
