Cavs Rock Bulls
The Cleveland Cavaliers sent Chicago packing on Friday night, handing the Bulls a 117-92 loss. Undefeated at home, the Cavs used a three-minute, 13-2 run early in the first quarter to make sure it would stay that way. The Bulls never again came within striking distance. Cleveland took fewer shots than Chicago, but converted 50.6 percent of them, which was 14 percent better than their opponent. The Cavs' LeBron James masterminded his first triple-double of the season, recording 16 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds. Chicago's high scorer was Ben Gordon, with 22. The Bulls look to rebound against the Timberwolves at home tonight.
