GAME FLOW
CHICAGO (AP) _ Mookie Blaylock hit back-to-back 3-pointers in the second overtime Friday night and the Golden State Warriors outlasted the Chicago Bulls 95-92 to end an eight-game losing streak. Blaylock finished with 23 points. Donyell Marshall scored five of his 21 points in the second extra period for the Warriors, who swept the season series with the Bulls for the first time in 13 years. Elton Brand, whose short jumper at the buzzer in regulation forced the first overtime, scored 26 for the Bulls, who have lost 13 of their last 14 games. Randy Brown hit two free throws with 8.8 seconds left in the first overtime to tie the game at 82. After Marshall was called for a charge with five seconds left, Brown missed a jumper at the buzzer. Blaylock hit 3-pointers with 2:31 and 1:46 remaining in the second overtime to give the Warriors a 92-87 lead. Chris Carr's 3-pointer with five seconds left brought the Bulls within three. Golden State then turned it over on the inbounds pass, but Carr's 3-pointer just before the buzzer was off. The Bulls trailed by 10 early in the fourth quarter, rallying behind Brand's 13 points, including his jumper just before the buzzer. Golden State didn't score in the final 2:46 of regulation and Chicago scored six to force the tie. Notes: John Starks, seeking his release by offering to forfeit his salary with the Bulls, has missed 11 straight games. He's now on the injured list with a sore knee. An arbitator will rule on his status Tuesday. Starks came to the Bulls from the Warriors in a three-way trade. Even even if he stays in Chicago, Starks is not expected to play much the rest of the season. ... It was Jason Caffey's first game in Chicago since he was traded to the Warriors on Feb. 19, 1998 for David Vaughn and two second-round picks. Caffey was the Bulls' first-round pick in 1995 and played on title teams in 1996 and 1997. ... The Bulls had 27 turnovers, the Warriors 21. ... Five players fouled out.
