The Bulls Saturday didn’t get much out of a late third quarter sequence in their escape 104-102 victory over the New York Knicks, their second straight win after losing 10 in a row.
But with the interaction, teamwork and sacrifice between none other than Bobby Portis and Nikola Mirotic, the combatants in that ugly preseason fight scene, perhaps this Bulls team is becoming a team.
“I think the biggest thing (the win) shows you is a group that really cares and a group that is going to go out and compete every night regardless of what the circumstances are,” said Bulls coach Fred Hoiberg.
