The Chicago Bulls ended their three-game losing streak with an 83-80 win over the Los Angeles Clippers.

“We were in a bad situation before tonight’s game,” said Pau Gasol. “We’ve got to start doing things differently, picking it up somehow. We have an opportunity here to do something special. I would hate if we would throw it away ourselves. It was a must win; otherwise we would be talking four in a row in the loss column and not a good place to be.”

“We got tired of losing the way we were losing and eventually you have to do what you have to do, especially at home,” said Jimmy Butler. “We finally picked it up a notch and knew what it took to win and did it.”
