KEY GAME INFORMATION
CHICAGO: GUARDS: After playing it very safe and sitting out all of last spring, DERRICK ROSE should pretty much be his old self. Of course, he'll have to knock some rust off early in the year . . . JIMMY BUTLER was an iron man during last year's playoffs, and his role will only grow this season. His defense and energy, as well as ability to get to the line, could make Luol Deng expendable . . . MIKE DUNLEAVY is in line for the sixth man role, primarily as a long-range threat . . . With Rose's return, KIRK HINRICH slides back to the bench. His playing time will be especially limited with Dunleavy taking up minutes at the two . . . MARQUIS TEAGUE will continue to be used only in garbage time unless Hinrich ends up getting hurt or traded. FORWARDS: LUOL DENG is back on the trading block, as the Bulls learned life isn't so bad without him now that Jimmy Butler has emerged. His offensive role could be slightly reduced . . . CARLOS BOOZER will likely be amnestied next summer, so for all intents and purposes this is a contract year. He's likely to still be a disaster defensively, which means he's a part-time player under defensive-minded head coach Tom Thibodeau . . . TAJ GIBSON will finish games and likely take over Boozer's spot a year from now. He's a superior defender and, while he doesn't have Boozer's range, he's a capable finisher around the rim . . . Rookie TONY SNELL is a Thibodeau kind of player, a long-armed, athletic perimeter defender. He's unlikely to ever do much on offense though. CENTERS: JOAKIM NOAH may be consistently banged up, but he's capable of playing through the pain. Depending on the Bulls' playoff position, he might sit some games late in the year, but Thibodeau isn't shy about playing him 35 minutes per night . . . NAZR MOHAMMED is back as a designated screener on offense and hacker on defense..
CLEVELAND: GUARDS: There are some durability concerns, but KYRIE IRVING is on the verge of stardom. He should benefit from the arrival of Anthony Bennett, the kind of pick-and-roll weapon Cleveland has lacked . . . DION WAITERS is still a work-in-progress defensively, and this will likely be another developmental year. He might end up settling in as the leader of the second unit . . . JARRETT JACK seems likely to close out games, even if he doesn't technically start. He's a creative shot-maker who will play close to starter's minutes . . . C.J. MILES is more of a situational three-point threat. SERGEY KARASEV, a polished Euro import, could push him for that role . . . CARRICK FELIX doesn't figure to crack this rotation. FORWARDS: No. 1 overall pick ANTHONY BENNETT will see time at both forward spots, and he'll be a pick-and-pop weapon no matter where he's playing. The question is whether he'll defend well enough to stay on the court for 30 minutes . . . There should also be enough minutes for TRISTAN THOMPSON, who hasn't quite put it together. The 22-year-old has upside though, and is a bigger part of Cleveland's future than Anderson Varejao . . . EARL CLARK gives the Cavs a quality second unit player who can play extended minutes if Bennett is overmatched defensively . . . A starter last year, ALONZO GEE figures to be a second-unit glue guy, but might be looking at a lot of DNP-CDs. CENTERS: ANDERSON VAREJAO is once again healthy and once again trade bait. No matter what the starting lineup looks like, he'll play major minutes at the four and five . . . The Cavs are taking a flier on ANDREW BYNUM. With his knee problems, it'd be surprising if he could give them 20-plus good minutes per night . . . TYLER ZELLER is likely the odd man out until Varejao is dealt or Bynum gets injured.

*Bulls-Cavaliers Preview* =========================

By JORDAN GARRETSON STATS Writer

Chicago (7-7) at Cleveland (4-11), 7:30 p.m. EDT

The Chicago Bulls appear to have regrouped after absorbing the shock of losing Derrick Rose again.

With a struggling offense, the Cleveland Cavaliers may not prove to be much of a challenge Saturday night as Chicago closes its six-game road trip.

The Bulls (7-7) ended a four-game skid with Friday's 99-79 win at Detroit, its third game without Rose after he was lost for the season due to a torn meniscus suffered in last Friday's loss at Portland.

They were blasted for a 39-point defeat against the Los Angeles Clippers in the next game, then took an overtime loss against league-worst Utah on Monday despite holding the Jazz to 38.8 percent shooting.

Chicago's defense put the clamps down on the Pistons in the second half, giving up just 26 points on 27.8 percent shooting after letting them hit 58.5 percent of their shots in the first 24 minutes.

"They made some shots in the first half, but I liked the way we were playing offensively," coach Tom Thibodeau said. "In the second half, we got our defensive intensity going."

Ninety-nine points was seemingly an offensive explosion for a club that had scored 87 or fewer in four of its last five games. Luol Deng continued to assert himself as the Bulls' top scorer, pouring in a season-high 27 points. He's averaging 24.3 and shooting 52.2 percent in the three games without Rose after averaging 15.7 points on 40.8 percent shooting in his previous 11 contests.

Deng is also posting career-best averages in rebounding (7.4), assists (3.4) and steals (1.3).

"Luol was off the charts the whole game," Thibodeau told the team's official website. "You can talk about how important he is to the team and what a good player he is. He's so strong in both areas of the game. He's a great offensive and defensive player. Luol is a big shot maker late. We know we have a guy who we can go to."

Deng is shooting 51.4 percent from 3-point range over his last 11 matchups with Cleveland, though he was 3 of 12 form the floor overall in Chicago's 96-81 home win on Nov. 11, the Bulls' 12th victory in 13 meetings. Chicago scored 29 points off 18 Cleveland turnovers.

The Cavaliers (4-12) dropped their fifth straight game Friday with a 103-88 loss at Boston. Playing Chicago likely wont cure Cleveland's offensive lull, as the team is averaging 90.7 points through a 1-8 stretch, including four games with 86 points or fewer.

The Cavaliers managed just 10 points in Friday's first quarter and shot 37.2 percent for the game.

"They threw the first punch tonight and I feel like we laid down. ... They controlled the whole game," said Dion Waiters, who scored 21 points. "We've got to be men. We've got to grow up. We can't just turn it around and think it's going to be easy. This is a man's league, so at the end of the day we've got to bring it."

Kyrie Irving had another inefficient performance, scoring 17 on 7-of-16 shooting with four turnovers compared to three assists. He's shooting 39.2 percent over his last four contests, including 1 of 16 from 3-point range. Irving has also struggled against Chicago, hitting just 35.7 percent of his field goals in four meetings. He was 5 of 19 for 16 points in the teams' earlier meeting.
