Bulls and Nets both win, Boston next for Bulls

Bulls and NJ Nets both won. Utah has lost 8 in a row. It was nice for Chicago to extend that streak. NJ faces Detroit who beat the Bulls next opponent, Boston.

Yes, Boston and Chicago are both playing back to back games.

At the season's start I picked Boston to do well this year, 4th in the East if I recall. They're not doing that well but they're contending for the playoffs and as a young team, are going to play better as the year goes on (and they stay healthy). Like Chicago, Boston did well in the '04 draft and are a young team albeit with a NBA star in Paul Pierce.

For January, I picked Chicago to lose this upcoming game (I think) but given Boston is also playing a back to back game with a loss to the Pistons, I think they'll be tight and tired. Da Bulls will beat them tomorrow and give me one Mulligan so I can meet my January prediction for wins/loses.
