Chicago ? Rasheed Wallace had the anger. He also had the focus.

That concoction added up to a dominant performance Saturday night, with the volatile Wallace scoring 26 points to lead the Detroit Pistons to their fourth straight victory, 92-79, over the Chicago Bulls.

Wallace yelled at the officials, picked up a technical – which he has been known to do from time to time. But he never lost his focus.

“He just makes the opponent look silly to me,” forward Antonio McDyess said. “When he gets going like that, it’s hard to stop him. We just love to see him when he gets going like that. Just give him the ball and move out of his way.”

Down 15 in the second quarter, the Pistons tied it at halftime and blew out the Bulls 27-10 in the third.

One night after scoring 40 points to lead the Pistons to a 106-98 home victory over the New York Knicks and former coach Larry Brown, Detroit’s Richard Hamilton had 10 points on 4-of-13 shooting. But his teammates compensated.

Tayshaun Prince and Chauncey Billups scored 17 points apiece, with Billups contributing 11 during the third quarter. He added 11 assists.

Wallace was 8-of-15, 4-for-6 on three-pointers, and had two steals and five rebounds. He walked onto the court with a chip on his shoulder after scoring three points against New York, and took it out on the Bulls.

“I had to – especially after that performance last night,” Wallace said. “I was terrible. I had to come out here and just play. But we got down. They came out smoking in the first quarter. But I knew we would (slow them) down.”
