The only yells in the Chicago Bulls' locker room on Tuesday night were happy ones.
Nikola Vucevic had 29 points and 12 rebounds, DeMar DeRozan scored 24 points, and Chicago stopped a four-game slide by beating the short-handed Miami Heat 113-103.
The Bulls looked nothing like the team that lost 150-126 to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday, a rout that saw players confronting each other in the locker room at halftime.
The 11-18 start entering Tuesday had clearly taken a toll, and coach Billy Donovan spent considerable time before the game against the Heat discussing the state of the team.
