Hard work will make Chancey come back and end his career on his note.

The Chicago Bulls became the first team in NBA history to win three consecutive road games with no home games in-between by at least 20 points when they beat the New Orleans Hornets Wednesday night 90-67.

Were it not for a three pointer made by Marco Belinelli, the Hornets would have been strapped by a franchise-low 64 points as well.

The Bulls also took over the "margin of victory" lead, raising their average margin per game to 9.7 points, which is all the more impressive when you consider that they've played so many games on the road.

They have now played 18 games on the road, two more than any other team, and they have won the most, owning the best road-winning percentage at .787.

The Bulls were also the first team in NBA history to win 5 consecutive road games against plus-.500 teams (with no home games in-between) in the 2009-10 NBA season.

The team ended the season at 41-41 and lost 4-1 to the Cleveland Cavaliers in round 1.

It was a great accomplishment but we can't read too much into it...

Jeremy Lin became the first Asian American to dunk in the NBA. That's a great accomplishment that probably means more than winning by 20+ points on the road against some crappy teams.

idk about that. Billups almost retired after the Knicks cut him months ago. He just seems sick of going from team to team. If he gets healthy by the summer team, idk if he'll have it in him to get back into it physically and mentally for ANOTHER team.

That kid is good.He revived the Knicks.

Is there a possibility for him to play a big role in Howards trade?He is exactly what Orlando needs.Young players with potential and a good C to replace Howard.Can Lin+Chandler+someone else for Howard trade work?

Slow start for the black mamba but you know he will jack up his fair share. After all, he is leading the league in points at 29 a game. I think he has 7 right now with the first quarter ending.

Kyle Lowry just made a ridiculous steal leading to a fastbreak layup to seal the win against Phoneix. Dude looked like an NFL CB on the play. Rockets are gonna be an interesting team come playoff time. That teams deep.
