Philadelphia just played four of six at home, but now they head out on the road. The 76ers are a weak offensive team, #25 in points scored, #27 in field goals, and #21 in free throws. Joel Embiid (knee) is not traveling with the team to Chicago and will sit for the fourth time in five games. This is the last home game until February 14 for the Bulls, who have won 11 straight games against the 76ers. They are hungry for a win after a team meeting Friday ended in a loss to Miami. The Bulls have been very good bouncing back after double digit losses, including the last time in this spot. After losing 104-89 to the Knicks, they rolled over New Orleans 107-99 and covered at home. Play Chicago.
