The seesaw battle continues!

But for now, the Bulls are in prime position to advance to the Eastern conference Finals, winning over the Atlanta Hawks 95-83 and enjoying a 3-2 advantage in the series.



MVP Derrick Rose was, once again, brilliant as he scored 33 points and had 9 assists. Luol Deng scored 23 points and Taj Gibson scored all 11 of his points in the 4th quarter, helping the Bulls extend a 1 point lead to double digits.

Rookie Jeff Teague continued his strong play by scoring 21points but, once again, could not contain Rose. Josh Smith added 16 points, Joe Johnson scored 15 and Al Horford had 12 points and 10 rebounds.
