A low-scoring affair unfolded in Chicago last night, as only 169 points were scored between both teams during the Bulls’ 89-80 victory over the Boston Celtics. Those searching for an explanation for this poor offensive output can look no further than the team’s combined 39.6% field-goal percentage, their 36.1% accuracy from beyond the three-point line, and this embarrassing miss by Carlos Boozer on a breakaway layup attempt.
Boozer did finish the game with an impressive 23 points, 15 rebounds and 5 assists, but the stat that most fans will remember from his performance last night was the two points he didn’t score with two minutes remaining in the third quarter.
