John Salmons scored with 49.6 seconds left to cut the Bulls’ deficit to 103-100. But Iguodala blew past Salmons and the Bulls failed to rotate, allowing Iguodala an easy layup with 27.4 seconds left.
Rose’s 30 points led the Bulls. Elton Brand scored 26 points and Iguodala added 25 for the 76ers.
Green added 15 points in place of Allen Iverson, Lou Williams had 14, and Samuel Dalembert finished with 10 points and 13 rebounds for the Sixers (17-31), who have won two in a row. They still are just 8-16 at home.
