CHICAGO -- The Chicago Bulls bounced back in a mighty way, defeating the Philadelphia 76ers, 103-78, Saturday night at the United Center.
Strong and dominant play from the Bulls bigs, Joakim Noah and Carlos Boozer, propelled them to the double digit victory.
Noah and Boozer cleaned up the boards with a combined 29 rebounds. Each recorded a double double to demonstrate Chicago's paint dominance for the game.
After a nail-biting 96-93 loss to the Washington Wizards on Friday at the Verizon Center the Bulls are back on the right track and improved their record to 19-20.
Philadelphia was unable to match the Bulls energy throughout tonight's match up. The 76ers shot a paltry 35.1% from the field which, resulted in only three players reaching double digits in scoring. Thaddeus Young led the way with 12 points on 6-17 shooting.
The Chicago Bulls outscored Philadelphia in each of the game's four quarters. The Bulls have now won 7 of their last 9 games. They square off against the (15-25) Los Angeles Lakers this upcoming Monday. (JZ)
