After a disappointing run last season, Chicago Bulls will look forward to an improved campaign as they open their NBA season at home against Detroit Pistons on Thursday. Can the Bulls overcome the Pistons to begin their campaign on a winning note? Here is our prediction for the match.
Chicago Bulls' NBA campaign last season ended in the 9-10 Play-in matchup against Miami Heat. 'Wonder Boy' Tyler Herro proved a nightmare for the Bulls, scoring 38 points plus five rebounds, and four assists to inspire Miami Heat to a 109-90 victory.
Billy Donovan's side have yet to find their rhythm as evidenced by their disappointing finish to the NBA preseason. They enter this match on the back of two defeats in their final three matches in the competition.
Detroit Pistons enjoyed a relatively stronger NBA campaign overall last term. The Pistons secured the last playoff spot with a .537 winning percentage. Their postseason campaign ended in the Playoffs first round following a 4-2 series defeat to New York Knicks. This includes a 116-113 home defeat to the New York club in their final match.
However, they have been formidable opponents against Chicago Bulls. The Detroit-based side have won each of their last three meetings with Chicago Bulls, including their last three trips to Chicago.
