It would have been very easy for Billy Donovan to focus on the now, especially with Wednesday’s 119-113 signature overtime win over Milwaukee at the United Center.
After all, to come back from 11 down with just over three minutes left in regulation and get the W spoke volumes.
“I think our compete level was really high,’’ Donovan said of his team’s resiliency. “Our guys stayed together and kept battling, kept fighting, and I give them credit.’’
Especially considering the Bulls (15-19) now have two wins each over the Bucks, Heat and Celtics, as well as a win over a suddenly streaking Brooklyn team.
