Update: Philadelphia is clinging to the Atlantic Division lead, but had gone 5-9 since Feb. 15, heading into Friday's home game against Miami. Guards Lou Williams (15.9 ppg) and Jrue Holiday (13.5 ppg) lead the Sixers' balanced attack. Center Spencer Hawes returned Monday from a left Achilles strain, but may not play tonight, because it's the second leg of back-to-back games. The Bulls are 1-1 against the Sixers this season, winning in Philadelphia 96-91 on March 4 behind 35 points from Derrick Rose.
