How Derrick Rose and the Bulls lost to the Sixers

Coach Nick took a closer look at the Sixers’ stunning comeback victory over the Bulls, which included a lot of bad Derrick Rose.

Coach Nick went through the game Saturday night between the Chicago Bulls and the Philadelphia 76ers. There was lots to go through, as the Bulls assault on the rim in the first half gave them a big lead.

But the young Sixers stuck to their game plan, got some timely shots from Spencer Hawes and Michael Carter-WIlliams, and pulled the game out. Derrick Rose is struggling with rust, committing two inexcusable 4th quarter turnovers.
