Sħãlïq™ Posted March 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 (edited) Bulls first to reach 40 wins, lock up playoff spotPosted Mar 25 2012 2:20PM CHICAGO (AP) -- The Chicago Bulls are in the postseason. They're the first team to lock up a playoff berth and reach 40 victories. Their success is no surprise after they led the NBA with 62 regular-season victories last season and had both the MVP in Derrick Rose and coach of the year in Tom Thibodeau. But this season they've maneuvered through a series of injuries and still found a way to post the NBA's best mark with 16 games left in the regular season. Rose missed his sixth straight game Saturday night with a groin injury and has been unable to go 16 times this season with an assortment of injuries, including earlier ones to a sprained left toe and sore back.
