CHICAGO guard Derrick Rose missed a free throw with less than a second left to hand the Los Angeles Clippers a 100-99 win over the Bulls yesterday.
The defeat is the Bulls' first in eight games while the Clippers scored their second consecutive win on the road after losing their first 11 away from home this season.
The Clippers led by seven points with 42 seconds left, but the Bulls had trimmed that lead to two when Rose took a pass and drew a foul with 0.8 seconds left as he drove to the Clippers basket.
He made his first free throw but the second was short and bounced off the front of the rim.
"I was gonna hit'em," said Rose, of his thoughts as he went to the free throw line. "That's basketball. I hope I get put in that position again. I know I'm not going to miss. It felt good, but I left it a bit short"
Playing their second game in as many nights the Clippers outscored the Bulls 20-11 in the first six minutes of the game.
"Our problem was our intensity to start," Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said. "In this league, you have to come ready to play every night, and if you don't, you're asking for trouble."
The Bulls battled back but were outscored 33-22 in the second quarter by the Clippers thanks to Rasual Butler, who scored 11 points in the period to give Los Angeles a 61-53 halftime lead.
The Clippers had five players score in double digits led by rookie Blake Griffin, who recorded his 15th consecutive double-double with 29 points and 12 rebounds.
Rose led the Bulls with a game-high 34 points and Carlos Boozer added 25 points.
