Portland's Damian Lillard hit a fadeaway three-pointer at the horn to give Chicago the 123-122 defeat on Saturday night.
The Bulls came roaring back from a 19-point hole to get into a fourth-quarter duel with the Trailblazers, but it was Damian Lillard who knocked down the game-winning three-pointer as time expired as Portland stole the 123-122 win. Chicago falls to 7-11 on the season. Lauri Markkanen led the Bulls with 31 points, Zach LaVine added 26 points on an efficient 9-of-12 shooting.
There's the old joke about the operation being a success but the patient died.
