The BMO Harris Bradley Center once again became the Chicago Bulls home away from home. A strong contingent of Bulls fans made the trek north and made life for the road team, quite pleasant.
As a result, the Bulls jumped out to a big lead early and pulled out a comfortable 104-88 win over the Milwaukee Bucks.
Nate Robinson scored 16 of his 24 in the second quarter and former Marquette standout Jimmy Butler had 18 points for the Bulls.

The Bulls played physical and the Bucks didn’t handle it well. Guard Brandon Jennings eventually had enough and was tossed for arguing with an official with less than 3-minutes to play.
Ersan Ilyasova had 18 points. Big man Samuel Dalembert had 14 points and 13 rebounds.
The Bucks are off today. They’ll face the Knicks in New York on Friday night.
