Bulls had piss poor efforts in their last two home games vs the Raptors (won luckily in the final seconds) , and lost straight up in a major beatdown to Denver.
Last 2 road games before that they won by DD in ORL (but ORL was coming off a b2b with MIA and simply didnt shop up), and also a DD win in TO.
The Hawks have a tendency to play hard for a string of games and then play disinterested for a few. I felt after that b2b2b sweep and winning 4 straight ( feeling satisfied) , that they would show their "other side" and thats what they did in MIL last night. However its the Bulls and they may get up for them at home, some of their games have been rough & tumble rides.
Bulls though, have been good on the road as of late. I haven't really looked at this match up, will look further into it during the day. Wonder what the motive is for the Bulls to cover a line like 4 and go through a war if the Hawks show up. I mean, they have the regular season top seed in the east sewn up, not much to really play for.
Though seedings are very overrated.
