    Rose returns, Bulls snap 10-game skid (AP)

    Ninety minutes before the tip-off, Derrick Rose was flexing his wrist in the locker room. He then flexed his All-Star form in a game the Chicago Bulls sperately needed to win.

    The fans sure expected a bleary-eyed, weary-legged Milwaukee Bucks team to show up at the Pepsi Center, where the Denver Nuggets were 30-5.

    Bosh's 36 get slumping Raptors past Nets (AP)

Bosh did that and more, scoring 23 of his 36 points in the second half and the Raptors kept the Nets on the road to an NBA single-season...

    Warriors suffer 13th straight road loss (AP)

    The short-handed Golden State Warriors are showing signs of fatigue physically. And they have to be mentally tired of their road losing streak. Rudy Gay scored 25 points, O.J.
