Chicago coach Scott Skiles benched starters Kirk Hinrich, Deng, Ben Gordon, Ben Wallace and Tyrus Thomas for almost the entire second half because they didn’t seem particularly interested in competing.

They would have found an opponent willing to mix it up as the Raptors – playing their fourth game in five nights and second in a row – got off to a solid, defence-dominated start and then cruised.

It got so embarrassing for the home side that a chant of “Ko-be, Ko-be” rained down on the Bulls in the third quarter from frustrated fans who would love to see Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant arrive to invigorate a team that simply did not compete at all.

Toronto had a litany of good things. Bosh, who had been dominant inside in games against Philadelphia and Orlando, got 14 points, mostly from outside shooting. He didn’t attempt a free throw in the 28 minutes he played.

Carlos Delfino, off the bench, tossed in 16 points to go along with seven boards and T.J. Ford (14) and Jose Calderon (9) combined for 23 assists while committing only three turnovers.
