Nate Robinson exploded for 34 points off the bench as the Chicago Bulls rallied to a 142-132 triple overtime win over the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday at United Center.

All of a sudden, the Bulls are a win away from advancing to the next round of the playoffs following another gutsy win against the Nets.

Robinson, who has been phenomenal in the series, caught fire to lead seven Bulls players in double figures.

"I always think I'm on fire, kind of like the old school game NBA Jam," Robinson told NBA.com. "You make a couple in a row, the rim's on fire. You shoot the ball, the ball's on fire. I feel like that at times - all the time.

"Whenever I'm in the game, I just play with a lot of confidence. You kind of have to lie to yourself and feel like you can't miss," he added.

Carlos Boozer also sustained his good form, recording 21 points and 8 boards. Kirk Hinrich (18 points and 14 assists) and Joakim Noah (15 points and 13 rebounds) chipped in with double-double game for the Bulls, who had to overcome a 14-point deficit with roughly three minutes left in the fourth quarter.

Robinson scored 12 straight points to fuel a 14-0 nothing run in the final three minutes of regular and sent the game into overtime.

It was a back-and-forth game in the first two overtime frame, but the Bulls had enough air left in the tank to finish the business in the third overtime.

Deron Williams recorded 32 points and 10 assists while Brook Lopez tallied 26 points and 11 rebounds for the Nets, who shot 50 percent from the field but turned the ball over 19 times.

With a commanding 3-1 series lead, the Bulls have a great opportunity to wrap up the series at Barclays Center on Monday, April 29 7 p.m ET.
