The Bulls were leading by five early in the fourth when Snell hit back-to-back 3s. Noah then scored on a layup to make it 78-65, and Chicago hung on after it got tight again late in the game. Phoenixs Miles Plumlee hit a free throw to make it 85-81. But Kirk Hinrich answered with a 3 to bump the lead to seven with two minutes remaining. "It doesnt matter if they have five people or 12 people," the Suns Channing Frye said. "Theyre going to come out here and play as hard as they can. They have really good players. Guys that want to prove themselves." It was a difficult day for both teams, with the Suns departure from Phoenix delayed to Tuesday because of the subzero temperatures in Chicago and the Bulls trading away one of their best players. Chicago acquired three draft picks from Cleveland along with Andrew Bynum, who was promptly waived in a move that took Chicago off the hook for the remaining $6 million on his two-year, $24 million deal. But trading Deng was yet another big blow for a team that expected to challenge the Miami Heat for supremacy in the Eastern Conference. Derrick Roses season-ending knee injury in November dashed those hopes, and Deng is gone now, too. "We can accept our circumstances as they are, or we can do all we can to change them and turn them into something positive," coach Tom Thibodeau said. "Thats one of the things Ive admired about our team -- theyve accepted every challenge." Theyre facing another one after trading Deng. Snell referred to him as a "big brother," and Butler has repeatedly mentioned how much he learned from him. "He told me hes going to miss me, and Lus never told me anything nice since Ive been here," Butler said, grinning. NOTES: Along with Bynum, Cleveland also sent the Bulls a first-round pick, two second-rounders, and gave Chicago the right to swap first-round choices in 2015 if the Cavs are not in the lottery. ... Bulls executive vice-president of basketball operations John Paxson apologized to Deng for the way the organization publicly handled his illness during last years playoffs. The Bulls said at the time he was out with flu-like symptoms. An angry Deng posted on Twitter from a hospital that he had a more serious condition that required a spinal tap to rule out meningitis. "We did not handle that as well as we could have and should have," Paxson said. "We spoke to Lu. I guess we didnt understand the gravity in that moment, and thats on us. Over the summer we talked to both Lu and Herb (Rudoy, his agent). We apologized. Thats something that we dropped the ball on." ... Leandro Barbosa arrived in Chicago and was expected to sign a 10-day contract with the Suns. Barbosa spent his first seven years with Phoenix but has not played in the NBA since he suffered a season-ending knee injury playing for Boston on Feb. 11, 2013. Air Jordan 12 Wholesale .
