Taj Gibson is off to a good start against the Pacers.

Midway through the second quarter, the forward has seven points off the bench – including this monster alley-oop from Joakim Noah.

Gibson slammed Noah’s pass just before the shot clock was going to expire.

Derrick Rose is looking good as well. The Bulls’ point guard has 11 points on 5-7 shooting, and the Bulls lead the Pacers 44-32.
