CHICAGO -- Derrick Rose tried watching the video tribute to him and Joakim Noah during a first-quarter timeout in their return to Chicago on Friday night.Noah, though, would have none of it.I watched some of it, but Jo was telling me to stay focused, Rose said.

The Chicago native also was booed every time he touched the ball in the first couple of minutes.I love when the crowd is into it, Rose said. I knew there was going to be some yells, I knew there were going to be some boos. Im from here, Im used to it. Ive been getting it since I was in sixth grade going to play on the West Side and me being from the South Side.New York broke open a close game by scoring 10 straight points to begin the fourth quarter for a 94-81 lead with 9 minutes to play.The Knicks led by as much as 98-83 before the Bulls rallied within 108-102 with just under 2 minutes to go.

I really tried. I had multiple times, many times, where I envisioned winning a championship here. It never happened, so Ive got to take (those) visions and take them to New York.MOVING ONNoah said he wasnt surprised management broke up the Bulls core following last season.I think it was time for a change, he said. I look back on (last season) and I was definitely frustrated. There was definitely a lot of adversity going on there. Now I can look back at it and see where went wrong. Its not about blaming one person. Everybody in that locker room is good people. Its just (stuff) happens.We didnt make the playoffs. Everybody was disappointed. It was a team that had high expectations.UP NEXTKnicks: Host Utah on Sunday.
