Game StoryCHICAGO (Ticker) -- The Chicago Bulls had not defeated the Sacramento Kings since Michael Jordan soared through the United Center. Good thing Eddy Curry and rookie Ben Gordon have short memories. Curry collected 25 points and 12 rebounds and Gordon added 24 points as the Bulls snapped an 11-game skid against the Kings with a 107-102 triumph. "It was definitely a big win," Curry said. "We kept it in our mind that they beat us out there (a 113-106 triumph on November 16). We wanted to let them know this a different team." Chicago had not beaten Sacramento since a 109-94 triumph here on February 28, 1998, when Curry and Gordon were freshmen in high school and the Bulls were on their way to the last of their six championships with Jordan. "We are playing with a lot of confidence now," Curry said. "But we also know we have to play our type of ball to win." The Bulls, who improved to 12-10 against Western Conference opponents, played without big man Tyson Chandler, who took the night off after one of his close friends died. "I spent some time with him in the locker room before the game," Bulls coach Coach Scott Skiles said. "It's difficult to see someone you are fond of go through something like that. But that's life." Sacramento held a 91-90 lead after a jumper by Chris Webber with 3:09 remaining, but Gordon sank a pair of free throws with 2:47 left and Kirk Hinrich added a 3-pointer to trigger a 9-2 run. Gordon capped the burst with a teardrop jumper in the lane for a 99-93 cushion with 1:22 to play. The Kings got within 100-98 on a three-point play by Brad Miller with 59 seconds left, but Gordon countered with a jumper 10 seconds later and Sacramento got no closer than three points thereafter. "Give the Bulls credit, they are playing to their strengths," Miller said. "Ben Gordon has proved he can really play off the pick-and-roll." Miller scored 23 points, Mike Bibby added 21 and Cuttino Mobley 20 for the Kings, who have lost five of their last six games. "It is what it is," Miller said. "Sometimes it's not even worth saying anything anymore." Sacramento trailed, 55-44, a minute into the second half before going on a 16-1 run, taking a 60-56 lead on a 3-pointer by Cuttino Mobley with 7:54 left in the period. But Chicago hung tough and trailed just 75-74 entering the fourth quarter. "They made a big run in the third quarter, but we kept our poise and just kept coming, especially down the stretch," Gordon said. The Bulls shot 53 percent (35-of-66) and limited the Kings to 43 percent (37-of-87). "Everybody just kept playing hard and in the end our defense made the difference," said Bulls forward Luol Deng, who scored 15 points.
