Despite an entertaining fourth-quarter scoring run courtesy of Bulls two-way player Adam Mokoka, the Bulls were unable to keep up with the Pelicans for the majority of Thursday night.
So how about those last four minutes Thursday even though the Bulls ended up losing 125-119 to the New Orleans Pelicans?
"I thought we weren't not trying; I thought they were better than us offensively," admitted Bulls coach Jim Boylen. "Our second unit came in at the end there and played hard and played the right way and I thought made some real solid, good plays."
Especially in a pretty remarkable four minutes in which Bulls two-way player Adam Mokoka set some kind of NBA record for most points scored in the shortest time and the Bulls cut a 23-point Pelicans lead with about four minutes remaining to four with 6.
