Billy Donovan expresses frustration after Craig-Drummond collision
The Chicago Bulls took on the New York Knicks on Tuesday night. After a brief period when the game was close at the start, the Knicks earned a fairly comfortable victory. New York took down Chicago by a score of 128-117, and at its largest, their lead was 17 points in the third quarter.
But as if that weren’t bad enough, the Bulls also had a viral moment at the beginning of the second quarter. Torrey Craig was on a fastbreak when he decided to throw the ball off the backboard for a self-alley-oop. However, Andre Drummond thought he was throwing it to him, so the two players collided mid-air.

“To me, it was just really disappointing,” Donovan said.
Oh man, we have the Shaqtin moment of the season

The Bulls need to win as many games as possible down the stretch of the season, but plays like this won’t help.
