Bulls 92, Bucks 83: The Bulls have been feasting on the lesser competition in the Central Division heartily this season, coming into last night's game against Milwaukee with an undefeated record against division opponents. The Milwaukee Bucks really didn't provide much of a test against the Bulls last night. During the second period a lineup of Kurt Thomas, Kyle Korver, CJ Watson, Ronnie Brewer and Taj Gibson expanded on a one-point first quarter advantage. The veteran Thomas, notably, had some pep in his step in the first half, with 16 points on the way to a team-high 22. It was the first time Thomas cracked the 20-point barrier since 2005. When informed of that after the game, Thomas said, "Wow! It's been that long?"

Derrick Rose added to his MVP highlight reel with 21 points and 10 assists for the Bulls.
