While we can’t say it was the most efficient play, they were making an effort to keep the Denver defense on its toes.īy the time halftime came around, Chicago had themselves a 53-51 lead in large part thanks to their unselfish ways. The Bulls dished 15 assists on 18 made field goals. As the tempo of the game started to pick up and the Bulls were able to turn some defense into offense, we saw arguably the most unselfish half of basketball this season. Jevon Carter went 3-4 from downtown in the first half, while Patrick Williams provided some strong defense with two early blocks – one of which came on Nikola Jokic.
