ATLANTA – Derrick Jones Jr. did almost everything right on the play.
Almost.
And for a Bulls team that spends way too many early quarters seemingly OK with nonchalant turnovers and digging themselves into deficits, almost can be haunting.
Even when there’s less than a second left on the clock and victory is in hand.
Thanks to an unbelievable twisting alley-oop lay-in at the horn by AJ Griffin – yes, the son of former Bulls assistant coach Adrian Griffin – Atlanta not only snatched victory away from the Bulls in the 123-122 overtime win, but snatched a couple hearts out along the way.
