Bulls' Noah: 'We're not a 48-minute team'
SACRAMENTO -- Perhaps the most impressive part of the Bulls' 4-3 circus trip
is that the players and coaches weren't impressed.
"We're not a 48-minute team," Joakim Noah said. "We have to improve on a lot
of things."
Indeed, poor starts have led to double-digit deficits that are needing a lot
of energy to overcome. This is where Carlos Boozer's return, in theory,
should help. Not only will he be able to lessen heavy minutes for players
like Luol Deng and Noah, but Boozer is the type of player who can slow other
teams' runs because of his ability to score in the post.
As tough as the schedule was on this trip, it doesn't get much easier when
the Bulls return. They face Orlando at home on Wednesday, then travel to
Boston on Friday and finish a back-to-back at home against the Rockets.
"When we get to practice (Monday), we have to get to work," coach Tom
Thibodeau said.
The Bulls' depth proved impressive on the trip. In Phoenix, Kyle Korver had a
big game. In Denver, C.J. Watson stepped up with 33 points when Derrick Rose
sat. In Sacramento, Ronnie Brewer supplied energy and almost tallied a
double-double.
And so the Bulls take a winning record into December, something that has
occurred just once before since the dynasty ended.
"We're just balling right now," Rose said. "We know we have a good team."
