04/08/2010 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Joakim Noah's tip-in with 1:21 left ended up being the game-winner after a wild final minute of misses and miscues, as Chicago inched past Cleveland, 109-108, at the United Center.
With LeBron James sitting, the Bulls are still standing. James played the part of cheerleader with the Cavaliers locked into the Eastern Conference's top position, aiding Chicago to climb even with Toronto for the final playoff spot in the East.
The two teams will meet on Sunday, but first the Bulls visit New Jersey on Friday while Toronto travels to Atlanta on the same day.
Derrick Rose led a balanced attacked with 24 points and 10 assists, Kirk Hinrich added a big scoring boost with 23 points on 8-of-12 shooting and Luol Deng notched a double-double with 22 points and 10 rebounds. The Bulls have won three of four with four games left in their attempt to make the playoffs for the fifth time in six seasons.
James watched Mo Williams drain six treys as part of a 35-point, James-like explosion that included 10 assists. Antawn Jamison chipped in with 23 points and six rebounds and Jamario Moon totaled 14 points off the bench. The Cavs have lost three straight on the road.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
