Bulls are set to face a healthy Pistons team after murdering them at Chicago without 3 of their starters. You can almost be sure that Ben Gordon is going to light it up against Chicago after scoring only 18 points in the previous meeting in which Chicago won. The Pistons however have lost 8 straight games comming into this game, their most since 1994. The Bulls on the other hand are tied for the 3rd worst road record in the NBA at 2-11. Their last road win came in the first day of the circus trip against the Sacramento Kings.
X-Factors:
The X-Factor in this game is going to be Tyrus Thomas. The Bulls are 3-0 with Thomas back in the lineup. The Bulls started the season 5-2 before losing him. Tyrus Thomas will be comming of the bench and will provide valuable minutes for the secondary. Since his return, he has averaged 4.5 Blocks per game :wow
Predicted Outcome
Bulls win 92 - 87
