LeBron James followed the lead of Stephen Jackson on Thursday, hitting a game-tying 3-pointer at the buzzer to force an overtime period at the United Center.

The loss delayed the inevitable, as the Cavaliers were unable to capitalize on their momentum when the Bulls outscored them 14-2 in overtime to pick up a 102-90 win.

The Bulls' scoring attack was balanced, with Ben Gordon leading the way with 21 points, while Antonio Davis scored 17, picking up for Eddy Curry who missed the game with an irregular heartbeat.

Drew Gooden scored 27 points to lead the Cavaliers.  LeBron James made the big shot and scored 26 points, but did so on 10-28 shooting.

Chicago's win streak was extended to 8 games.
