Bulls take playoff push to Auburn Hills; face Pistons

Basketball Betting Lines

03/28/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Bulls shoot for their second win in as many nights against an inferior foe as they hope to tighten the race for the Eastern Conference's last playoff spot.

The Bulls, who topped the lowly Nets in Chicago last night, visit the hapless Detroit Pistons in Auburn Hills tonight, aiming for their first season sweep of Detroit in 14 years.

The Bulls, who have won six straight overall vs. the Pistons, haven't swept Detroit since the 1995-96 season.

Rookie Taj Gibson scored 14 of his career-high 22 points in the first quarter on Saturday as the Bulls destroyed New Jersey, 106-83, at the United Center.

Gibson also tallied 13 rebounds and finished 7-of-9 shooting to pace the Bulls to their third win in four games. The win moved Chicago 1 1/2 games behind Toronto for the final playoff spot in the East.

Jannero Pargo had a season-high 27 points and Brad Miller added 14 and six rebounds for the Bulls.

"We played with a little edge to us tonight," said Bulls forward Joakim Noah. "They are not a great team but it doesn't matter. We've lost to this team before, so it was important for us to come with the right mentality and we did."

The Pistons, meanwhile, lost to the Nets in their last encounter, a 118-110 setback on Friday in East Rutherford. Brook Lopez and Yi Jianlian each netted career-highs with 37 and 31 points, respectively, in that one as New Jersey took down Detroit, 118-110.

Tayshaun Prince finished with 27 points, eight rebounds and seven assists as the Pistons dropped their seventh game in a row, and lost in New Jersey for just the seventh time in their last 19 appearances.

"It's disappointing to score that many points and we can't allow them to score the way they did," said Pistons coach John Kuester. "Our intensity was good. I thought we had guys playing hard, but Lopez and Yi ended up hurting us a lot."

Problem with Bears?

Chicago, IL - New Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler and star linebacker Brian Urlacher shot down reports of a rift, saying they're simply not true.

"There's nothing between us," Cutler said Thursday, when he reported to training camp. "I just want to put that to rest. There never has been anything between us."

Urlacher added: "I never said what I was quoted as saying and that's it. I have a lot of respect for Jay. I think Jay knows that."
Former Bears receiver Bobby Wade caused a stir when he told Minneapolis radio station KFAN-AM that Urlacher used a profanity while questioning Cutler's manhood during a conversation in Las Vegas last weekend. Wade, who now plays for the Vikings, said Urlacher used a profane version of the word "wimp" during the interview that had to be edited out.
go radio station WSCR-AM also reported that Urlacher had to be restrained from confronting Cutler during organized team activities.
"I wouldn't go face-to-face with Brian, anyway," Cutler said. "No, that's never happened. I've hung out with Brian away from the facility numerous times and we've always gotten along."
Urlacher, noting he was limited by a groin injury, denied the reports in an interview with the Chicago Tribune and did it again when he reported to camp.
"I didn't practice this summer, so I don't know how I would fight the guy if I didn't practice," Urlacher said. "We have no problems. I'm excited about football starting. I'm excited to have him as our quarterback."
Why would Wade say that?
"I don't know," Urlacher said. "Maybe he's jealous because we have a good quarterback now."
Cutler said the first he heard of any friction was when he got a call from Urlacher to clear the air. Urlacher, however, said he had already taken several calls from teammates wondering if the reports were true when Cutler phoned.
"He called me and I said, What's up (expletive), what are you doing?'" a grinning Urlacher said, uttering the same word he allegedly used with Wade. "It's so dumb to me that this even got to this point, but it did and then here we are."
better place after going 9-7 and missing the playoffs for the second straight year. They have a franchise quarterback for the first time in decades after acquiring Cutler in an offseason trade with Denver. But there are questions about his attitude following a fallout with Broncos management and new coach Josh McDaniels.
His critics include former Bears coach Mike Ditka and former Indianapolis and Tampa Bay coach Tony Dungy, one of Smith's mentors. Smith, however, said Cutler has been a model teammate so far while denying any animosity with Urlacher.
"There's no issue with Jay and Brian, except Brian and Jay are both excited about being teammates for our club this year," coach Lovie Smith said. "No more than that. We can't spend a whole lot of time on something that isn't true. I have talked to the players. Whenever something comes out, you have to address it, but it's a non-issue."
In some ways, Cutler is getting a second chance in Chicago, an opportunity to repair his reputation.
Smith said another quarterback - Michael Vick - deserves one, although he doesn't see it happening with the Bears, who lack an experienced backup. The former Atlanta Falcons star, who served a 23-month sentence for running a dogfighting ring, said Thursday he is getting close to signing with a pro football team.
"A second chance, like everyone in society who has paid their debt to society," Smith said. "He deserves a second chance. As far as we're concerned, we like this team that we have right now."
Particularly the new quarterback.
"Me and Brian have been on a good relationship since I've been here, and I expect it to continue that way," Cutler said.
