If there's been one constant when the Chicago Bulls and Atlanta Hawks meet, it’s that there are few surprises. The favorites are 9-0 SU and ATS in the past nine contests between the two teams, including the Hawks' two victories over the Bulls this season.
- The UNDER is 13-5 in the past 18 games between the Bulls and Hawks.
- The Hawks are 6-2 SU and ATS in their last eight games following consecutive losses.
- The Bulls have scored more than half of the posted total in each of their past three games.
The Hawks will be looking to avoid their longest home losing streak since December 2006 Friday night. Atlanta has been in shambles defensively at Phillips Arena as they have allowed 107.5 points per game during their current four-game home losing streak. The Hawks have won both affairs against the Bulls this season though, with Al Horford averaging 24.5 points and seven rebounds per game in those contests.
The Bulls come into Friday’s contest riding a three-game winning streak on the back of an offense that has averaged 117 points per game in that span. Derrick Rose has been looking like his pre-surgery self in February as the point guard has scored 21.9 points, six assists and 5.6 rebounds in the eight games he has played this month. However, Rose has his hamstring tendinitis act up prior to the Bulls' last game against the Wizards and did not play in that contest.
