Bulls win to the Pacers without leading scorers

The Bulls found the path to the victory against the Pacers on a game without Ben Gordon, Luol Deng, and Chris Duhon, the leading scorers for Chicago.

But nothing is written, and Kirk Hinrich came up from the bench to score a career-high 38 points to help Chicago in their 108-95 win. The Bulls entered this game as the NBA's worst-shooting team but could managed to shot 48 % while the Pacers are ranking last in the NBA in turnovers, proof of that are the 19 they commited just in this match, which was another factor that played in Chicago’s favor.

I would say that the Pacers brought the lost on themselves, mostly because they haven’t managed to work out their perimeter defense which has lack consistency during this season.

"We're not doing a good job of keeping the ball out of the paint, it's a very big concern for us. Absolutely." Pacers coach Jim O'Brien said.

On the Pacers, Danny Granger also scored a career-high 33 points in just 35 minutes, including 7 free throws but it just wasn’t enough to save the night.

Now the Bulls would have to trust his bench to keep on winning games, as the injured starters will switch seats with those who don’t see action regularly.
