Morning Box Score: Bulls Keep A-Rollin'

Bullls 111, Raptors 91: That Christmas Day nightmare against the Knicks notwithstanding, the Bulls have shown two of the hallmarks of good teams the past couple of weeks. They're winning games in which they're struggling, as they did against the Nets and Cavaliers. Last night, they handily beat a team they were expected to beat handily.

Luol Deng scored 24 points to spur a balanced team performance as the Bulls won their fifth straight game. Carlos Boozer and Taj Gibson each had double doubles, Derrick Rose added 19 points. The Bulls travel to New Jersey tonight to face the nets again. Tip off is at 6 p.m. (CSN, WMVP-AM 1000)
