The Chicago Bulls won their eighth straight versus the Raptors on Wednesday, beating Toronto 94-85.  Eddy Curry led the Bulls with 16 points.

``It feels good to beat these guys, especially when you arrive in your hotel room last night and see Jalen Rose on TV guaranteeing a win,'' Curry said. ``That's even more incentive. At this point we just wished we could have won by a little bit more.'

Rose did do his part to back up the guarantee, scoring 30 points, but it wasn't enough for the Raptors.

``They wouldn't have said that if they lost,'' Rose said. ``If they need me to say something to get them motivated to play, they'll be getting bounced in the first round.''
