DeRozan leaves early, Bulls crushed by Sixers, but Rivers saves the night with a good MJ story. McGrawDHSports chicagobulls
Philadelphia 76ers coach Doc Rivers, a Maywood native, shared a Michael Jordan story before Wednesday's game at the United Center, involving the 1988 All-Star Game at Chicago Stadium.
Back to the '88 All-Star Game for a moment: The East actually led at halftime when Jordan scolded his teammates and won 138-133. Jordan scored 40 points and was named MVP. Bulls assistant Maurice Cheeks was also on that East squad, while it was the only all-star appearance of Rivers' 14-year playing career.

DeRozan was called for a flagrant foul and technical, resulting in a 5-point possession that pushed the Sixers' lead from 13 to 18. The Bulls said DeRozan left due to a right quad strain, the injury that hampered him during the middle of the season. DeRozan didn't speak to reporters and Donovan didn't have any specific update.
"We knew they were going to come out strong like that, but I think they did the right thing, they did a lot of adjustments," Zach LaVine said."Joel, give credit to him, we were set on getting the ball out of his hands and he did it fast and those guys hit a lot of shots, 3s that opened it up."
