The Chicago Bulls could have fallen down and thrown in the towel early in the season when Derrick Rose was lost again. They could have taken a tumble when they dealt Luol Deng. Instead they took the high road, and this team has been 33-14 over their last 47 games, rising into the elite category of the NBA, and will be a dangerous playoffs team. Minnesota has had a lot of promise the last two years, but just can't get over the top. As a home dog over the last decade plus, they have been the worst team in the NBA. That shouldn't change here vs. a surging and focused Bulls team on a five game winning streak. Play on Chicago.
