OTHER PERSPECTIVES: By the Horns, Blog a Bull

PREVIOUSLY, THE CHICAGO BULLS...lost their second straight game on Wednesday night in Philadelphia. The 106-103 overtime loss followed a 90-82 setback to the Clippers on Tuesday night in Chicago. The Bulls had Joakim Noah, limited by injury though he was, for both of those losses. They've won nine of thirteen overall.

The Hawks beat the Bulls 118-83 on December 9th in the previous meeting between the team in Atlanta. Chicago won 101-98 in overtime 10 days later in Chicago.

Consider this an open thread for all pre-game, in-game, and post-game (but pre-recap) thoughts.
