The block of Pau Gasol to LeBron James decided the outcome in the first NBA game of the season, as the Bulls got the 97-95 win over the Cavaliers.
Gasol gave the win to the team of USA president Barack Obama who was part of the audience in the court side seats of United Center.
Gasol scored just 2 points on 1/7 shots, but his block to James who finished the game with 25 points and 10 rebounds, was the most crucial play of the game. Fellow Spaniard Nikola Mirotic with 19 points and 9 rebounds was the best of the winners.
