New York at Chicago

There aren't many things going right for the New York Knicks as their personnel at this point does not match what Phil Jackson would like to see them do. He has his hands full in this organization. The Chicago Bulls have played well on average, but they have for some reason struggled at home where they are a disappointing 4-5 on the season with inexcusable losses to Boston, and Indiana. The Bulls tend to play to the level of competition, and already own a 24-point win in New York in their opener. I doubt they come out on the floor with energy here as they just finished with Miami, and Atlanta, and looming next is upstart Memphis. The Knicks seem to rise up vs. elite teams as they are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 vs. a team over .500. The Bulls' home woes continue tonight, adding to their disappointing 3-9 ATS mark in their last 12 here. Take the points on the Knicks.
