The night ultimately ended in an 89-84 defeat to the Miami Heat, the Bulls\u2019 fourth straight loss at the United Center.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe struggle at home a lot more than we do on the road, so it\u2019s always a good time to be on the road, right?\u201d said Gasol when asked if the longest road trip of the season has come at the right time. \u201cTo me we should be a much stronger home team, but we\u2019re not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Bulls, now 16-9 at home, shot 39.8 percent from the field and were outscored 28-16 in the fourth quarter. Dwyane Wade led the Heat with 28 points as Miami won for just the second time in nine games. For Chicago, Rose\u2019s exit in the second quarter made a bad situation at point guard worse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDerrick had a little bit of soreness before the game and unfortunately he went down,\u201d Hoiberg said. \u201cWe were short-handed going into this one at the point guard spot, so that didn\u2019t help.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kirk Hinrich has missed the last five games with a left quad contusion. Hoiberg said Rose, who has missed six games due to injury this season, would be reevaluated Tuesday morning. Jimmy Butler, who scored 13 points on 5-for-15 shooting, didn\u2019t use Rose\u2019s injury as an excuse for Monday\u2019s fourth-quarter collapse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re still expected to win games,\u201d Butler said. \u201cGuys gotta step into his role and do what we\u2019re supposed to do. Yeah, we need [Rose] out there though.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gasol ended the night with 19 points, 17 rebounds, but most of his damage was done in the first quarter. It was his 25th double-double of the season, but not enough to push Chicago to its 26th win. The Bulls offense went stagnant in the second half and Butler acknowledged they should have stayed with the hot hand.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe gotta get him the rock,\u201d said Butler of Gasol. \u201cWhenever a guy\u2019s making shots like that, you gotta make the defense guard him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After a six-game winning streak that spilled into the new year, the Bulls haven\u2019t won consecutive games since Jan. 7 and have lost seven of the last 10. Six of seven opponents on the upcoming road trip, though, are below .500, starting with the 9-37 Lakers on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a challenging position, but you find true character in people and teams when they\u2019re facing adversity, and let\u2019s see how this team responds,\u201d Gasol said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"featurecaption\">Photo on top: Bulls players huddle before their game against the Miami Heat on Jan. 25, 2016.
