DeRozan's 50 points help Bulls take down Clippers, hold 5th place in East

DeMar DeRozan: "The win is more meaningful...No more room to drop any more games; that's just my mentality.”

It was the last day of March Thursday, though it felt like November again in Chicago, shivering wind driven cold that defied multiple layers, slate skies and slanting rain mixing with snow flurries.

And DeMar DeRozan and the Bulls heating up.

Just in time to spring a playoff upset?

In any case, it felt good as DeRozan reawakened the MVP talk—Magical, Valiant and Paralyzing—with a milestone 50 points, including 27 combined in the fourth quarter and overtime, in a 135-130 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers.
