CHICAGO - Andrew Bogut scored 27 points, took down 13 rebounds -- and, maybe most important, calmed his team in the closing moments of a narrow 96-93 win over Chicago.

The Bulls had wiped out most of a 17-point lead when a hard foul brought the teams face-to-face. While the officials were deciding what penalty to assess, Bogut called the team together and stressed the need to settle down.

He finished the game with a career-high six blocked shots. Michael Redd is starting to find the touch. The hot-shooting guard helped Bogut out with 24 points. The two combined for 22 points in the last seven minutes of play.
