After their season-best seven-game winning streak was snapped in dramatic fashion, the Chicago Bulls will look to get back on track against a Philadelphia 76ers team they've dominated recently.

The Bulls will try for their fifth win in six games versus the 76ers when they meet for the first time this season Tuesday night.

Playing for the first time without leading rebounder Joakim Noah, Chicago (16-9) found itself in a close game against the Los Angeles Clippers at home Saturday night.

Trailing by two with 0.8 seconds to go, Derrick Rose went to the free-throw line to try to tie the game. However, after hitting his first attempt, he missed the second and the Bulls fell 100-99.

"I thought I was going to hit them. That's basketball. I hope I get put in that position again. I know I'm not going to miss it," said Rose, who is the only player in the league averaging at least 24.0 points and 8.0 assists. "It felt good, but I left it a bit short."

Rose scored 34 and dished out eight assists while Carlos Boozer had 25 points. Boozer is averaging 27.0 points - 9.7 more than his career average - over his previous three games, and he's averaged 22.6 points and 10.7 rebounds in his last nine against Philadelphia.

Taj Gibson made his first career start at center but was forced to leave in the third quarter after sustaining a concussion. Gibson, though, is likely to be available Tuesday.

The Bulls were outrebounded for the first time in eight games and know they need a better effort with Noah out for up to two months with a thumb injury. He was averaging 11.7 rebounds, among the best in the NBA.

"Teams are going to try to go big against us, especially when we have our three (Luol Deng) at four," Rose told the Bulls' official website. "We've got to know that as a team and all five rebound or give help when they go in the post and go for the rebound."

On the first stop of an eight-game trip, Philadelphia (11-16) recorded consecutive road wins for the first time all season by defeating short-handed Orlando 97-89 on Saturday night.

Elton Brand recorded 20 points and 13 rebounds after scoring eight in a 93-81 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night that ended his stretch of 10 straight games in double figures.

The 76ers, winners of six of eight, have stepped up on the defensive end, allowing an average of 84.0 points in their previous five matchups.

"Defensively as a team, this is the best we've played as a unit," Brand said. "It feels like we're hitting on all cylinders defensively."

Andre Iguodala, averaging 14.5 points, has scored 19.7 in his last three games and 23.2 over his previous five visits to Chicago.

Philadelphia, which is 3-10 on the road, has lost three straight at the United Center by an average of 17.4 points.

Rose, Deng lead Bulls to 121-76 rout of 76ers

Posted Dec 21 2010 11:43PM

CHICAGO (AP) The Chicago Bulls were just looking for a quicker start and better defensive play against the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday.

What they got was perhaps the season's most complete effort in a 121-76 rout.

"There was not much not to like," said Chicago coach Tom Thibodeau, whose team won its eighth in nine games. "We came out from the start with great energy. The shots went down for us early. Defensively we did a good job with body position and getting back challenging shots."

Derrick Rose collected his seventh double-double with 22 points and 12 assists. Luol Deng also had 22 points and four other Bulls hit double figures as Chicago led by as many as 51 points late in the game.

"It was a good, old-fashioned butt kicking," said Sixers forward Elton Brand, who managed just six points and two rebounds. "They did whatever they wanted. They scored on eight of their first 11 plays and we couldn't come back. They scored at will."

Despite missing two big men, Chicago dominated nearly every offensive category and recorded its most lopsided win of the season.

Carlos Boozer had 16 points and 11 rebounds, and Kurt Thomas added 12 points. Andre Iguodala scored 17 points and reserve Thaddeus Young added 12 for Philadelphia.

Chicago, coming off a 100-99 loss to the Clippers, trailed only in the opening minute. The Bulls then used a 10-0 run later in the first quarter to open its first double-digit lead. The advantage grew to 90-50 with 1:01 left in the third and 50 with less than five minutes to play.

"We did a great job getting ready to play," Boozer said. "We were disappointed at how we started the last game (and) it's been a point of emphasis in the last couple days of practice. We did a great job of being ready offensively and being ready defensively."

Chicago was without 6-foot-9 forward Taj Gibson, who suffered a concussion during the home loss to the Clippers. He was the second Bulls big man sidelined in the last week following Joakim Noah's thumb surgery last Thursday.

Rose shook off a sore right wrist and scored 11 points in the first quarter. Deng added 10 as the Bulls opened a 33-19 lead. Chicago made 10 of its first 14 shots (71 percent) in the first 8:40.

The Bulls' lead never slipped under 10 points in the second quarter. Kyle Korver had eight points off the bench, including a pair of 3-pointers to help the Bulls to a 61-43 lead by intermission.

The lead passed 30 points during a 16-0 run and hit 40 with 1:01 remaining when Rose hit his second 3 pointer of the game to open a 90-50 lead. James Johnson's two free throws with less than five minutes to play pushed the lead past 50.

"I told the guys that I'll give you one," said 76ers coach Doug Collins, whose team came into the game with six wins in its last eight games. "In the NBA you're going to have games like this, it just happens.

"It'll be easier tomorrow (at Boston). Our effort will be better tomorrow. We were just discombobulated on offense tonight. I didn't recognize us out there. I didn't even know what plays we were running."

Chicago shot a season-high 64.5 percent, while Philadelphia managed just 28 of 80 (35 percent), its lowest of the season.

Notes: The crowd of 21,521 was the Bulls' 14th straight sellout this season. They led the NBA in average attendance entering the game with a 21,397 average. ... Both teams play on Wednesday on the road. The 76ers travel to Boston while the Bulls are at the Wizards. ... Thibodeau said after the game that he was uncertain about Gibson's status for the Wizards but said the Bulls forward was training on a stationary cycle at practice and looked better.

THE FACTS: Whatever had been working for the Philadelphia 76ers recently didn't work Tuesday. Derrick Rose and Luol Deng each scored 22 points and the Bulls shot 64.5 percent for the game on the way to a 121-76 victory over the visiting 76ers. After taking a 61-43 lead at halftime, the Bulls outscored the 76ers 31-11 in the third quarter. Andrea Iguodala had 17 points and Thaddeus Young had 12 points as the only double-figure scorers for Philadelphia.

THE FACTS II: The Bulls, who are 6-6 on the road this season, play the next three games away from home, a trip highlighted by a Christmas Day game against the New York Knicks.

QUOTABLE: "I knew in the first three minutes of the game we had no juice. I don't know if it was a couple of nights in between games in the same city and guys, at this time of year where you are out Christmas shopping and getting stuff taken care of, they jumped all over us."
-- Philadelphia coach Doug Collins

THE STAT: The 76ers entered the game as the No. 2 team in the league in defensive field goal percentage at 43.6 percent. The Bulls shot at least 61 percent in each quarter Tuesday, and shot 70 percent in the third quarter.

TURNING POINT: The opening tip, with Kurt Thomas on the floor in place of Taj Gibson, who started the last game in place of injured center Joakim Noah. Gibson was held out of the game after suffering a concussion in the Bulls' home loss to the Clippers Saturday. Thomas provided 12 points, eight rebounds and five blocked shots in almost 28 minutes of playing time.

HOT: Ronnie Brewer, who comes off the bench at shooting guard for the Bulls, had nine points, three rebounds, two steals and a blocked shot in a tremendous all-around performance. He also had zero turnovers in 27 minutes of playing time.

NOT: Elton Brand, the former No. 1 pick of the Bulls, was two for nine from the field for six points, although he had nine rebounds.

QUOTABLE II: "He's been doing it for 100 years."
- Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau on veteran center Kurt Thomas.

NOTABLE: Bulls forward Luol Deng, who ranks in the top 10 in the league in average minutes played, was 10 for 14 Tuesday in a game-high 33 minutes played.

UP NEXT: For the Bulls, @ Washington Wednesday, at New York Saturday, at Detroit Sunday. For the 76ers, @ Boston Wednesday, @ Denver Sunday, @ Golden State Monday.
