It was a familiar script as the Bulls lost their 3rd straight game in not-exactly-close fashion due to a terrible 4th quarter. Chicago had their highest lead at 13 points midway through the third quarter, only to see it go to to a 13 point deficit by the time it was under four minutes to go in the game. A big chunk was the Cavs going on a 22-4 run to start the 4th quarter. The Bulls showed Arturas Karnisovas some resiliency and improvement against better opponents to get that deficit to within two possessions, so I suppose this was another ‘close loss’ in AK’s eyes as his Bulls went down 97-89.
