Wait, Philly is a better team than Chicago?

Bulls definitely have the edge underneath. Philly needs to win this game on the wings with the injuries the Bulls have to Deng and Hamilton. And they gotta be hot on the 3-point shot because second chances and inside buckets won't come easy. They are capable of running hot from deep though.

Have you ever watched the Sixers play.
You dont need a star when you have 8 guys who are all above average, very consistant nba players |

I agree 100%. They are far and away the best team in the NBA right now. Don't garner much attention though, which is surprising but likely bc there is no "star" as you said. Media likes the big mouths. Couple that with the fact they are @ home and a dog and it's almost free money. Only time will tell of course.
