The good thing for the Chicago Bulls is they extended their season with a Game 4 win at the United Center.

But now the Bulls must return to the Palace, where they were blown out in the first two games of this series by a combined 47 points. Facing another elimination game, center Ben Wallace admitted that the "pressure is still on us."

Bulls coach Scott Skiles said the Palace's atmosphere got the best of his team in the first two games of the series.

"They can be obnoxious up there," said veteran power forward P.J. Brown. "They were saying a lot of different things around the bench the first two games, and they were really enjoying it. They're great fans. They're like Chicago fans, like New York fans ? some of the best sports fans in the business."

"You've got to feed off of that. You can't look at it as a negative. I look at it like, hey, put the ball in the basket, get a dunk or something."

Bulls center Ben Wallace is all too familiar with playing at the Palace and insists nothing fazes him.

"I already knew how tough it was to come in there and play," Wallace said. "I'm just catching it from a different end. But I welcome all of that. I love being in those type of situations.

"That's what I work hard for all season, is to have an opportunity to go into a hostile environment and try to get a win."
