I couldnt really jump as much as Im jumping now, said Gasol, who had a career-high nine blocked shots in his previous game. Not that Im jumping super high, maybe an inch more.Aaron Brooks added 19 points for the Bulls (24-10), who won for the ninth time in 10 games. Taj Gibson and Derrick Rose had 12 points apiece.Evan Turner scored 24 of his 29 points after halftime, but Boston dropped to 2-6 since trading Rajon Rondo to Dallas on Dec. 18.

Rookie Nikola Mirotic scored 10 points in his first start, and Kirk Hinrich replaced Butler for the Bulls ninth different starting lineup of the season.They do what they need to do to win, obviously, even when theyre not playing well, Turner said.The Celtics were coming off a 119-101 loss to Rondo and the Mavericks on Friday. Jared Sullinger scored 16 points in Bostons fourth consecutive road loss.Rose stole the ball and passed to Joakim Noah, who found Gasol for a layup for a 103-99 lead with 2:21 left in overtime.

He had eight rebounds and four assists. He also helped limit Jeff Green to 4-for-18 shooting and 11 points.He tried to figure out offensively all the moves and positions and spots he had to be at, Gasol said. That affected maybe his rhythm a little bit and his shot. Defensively, he did a great job on Jeff Green, really hustled.TIP-INSCeltics: G Jameer Nelson (sprained ankle) missed the game. ... The Celtics were 9 for 11 at the line, compared to 29 for 40 for the Bulls. They did a great job of getting to the line, Celtics coach Brad Stevens said. I thought it was a pretty well-called game. We just fouled them too much.Bulls: Dunleavy is day to day after injuring his right ankle in Thursdays 106-101 victory over Denver. Hes still sore, so we cant put him out there right now, coach Tom Thibodeau said. Well see where he is tomorrow and go from there.

Dave Taylor Jersey . The turf is scheduled to give way to actual grass that is bright green, so we dont have to complain any more—we just have to wait a few years. Instead, do feel free to complain if the roof is closed for any reason other than to allow a game to be played. Michel Therrien is keeping everyone guessing as to what lineup he will go with in Game 3 tonight against the Bruins. Following his teams optional morning skate, Therrien would only confirm that Rene Bourque, who missed practice yesterday with the flu, will play. Mike Weaver spent yesterday paired up with Douglas Murray instead of Francis Bouillon, indicating Murray could make his post-season debut tonight, which will give the Canadiens a little more size against a physical Bruins team. Up front, there are also question marks surrounding the potential forwards who will dress. Travis Moen missed the first round of the playoffs with a concussion and made his return in Game 1 of this series, but Therrien decided to go with Michael Bournival over Moen last Saturday, a move to bring more speed to the Canadiens line up. “Its nnever fun to sit out especially in the playoffs,” Moen said Tuesday morning.dddddddddddd. “You want to help your team win, but it was a decision and you have to live with it, hopefully I can play tonight.” With the absence of Bourque at practice yesterday, Ryan White was practicing as the centre on the fourth line. White has yet to play a game in the playoffs this year and will have to wait and see if his name gets called tonight. Even though the Canadiens have said that Brandon Prust is healthy, his play doesnt indicate it. At practice on Monday, Prust was no longer on his usual line and instead was skating extra forward alon side George Parros. Therrien refused to comment on the status of individual players, nut it is obvious Prust hasnt been himself since returning from an upper body injury. ' ' '
