RECAP:


Rose made up for his embarrasing performace in the previous game to score a season-high 35 points to lead the Chicago Bulls to a 98-88 win over the Washington Wizards while the Orlando Magic are losing, and losing badly, as Igoudala is making his case for an All-Star berth with a 14 point, 11 rebound outing to lead Pthe 76ers to its third straight win. The Miami Heat started sluggishly against the New Orleans Hornets, then Dwyane Wade woke up midway in the second quarter to single-handedly bring back the Heat then his teammates took care of the rest. The Timberwolves are showing everyone their teeth as they took down the Rockets in a 120-108 win while the Spurs handed the Grizzlies their 4th straight loss. Brandon Jennings led a balanced Bucks attack in a win over the skidding Pistons while Paul Milsap and the Utah Jazz used a 13-0 fourth quarter rally to beat the Portland Blazers 93-89. The Suns were without their lead ray, and it showed as they were routed by defending champs, the Mavericks while Blake Griffin’s jaw-dropping one-handed jam over Kendrick Perkins sent Los Angeles Clippers fans into a frenzy, fired up his teammates, lit up the Twitterverse and burned the Oklahoma City Thunder.
