Tonight, your depleted Chicago Bulls will face off against a fully-healthy Philadelphia 76ers club at the Wells Fargo Center in the desperate hope of avoiding their fifth straight loss.
Should the 39-25 Bulls fall to the formidable 39-24 Sixers tonight, Chicago will suddenly be just 0.5 games ahead of the ascendant Boston Celtics and in danger of losing home court advantage heading into the playoffs.
The Sixers will boast the best two players on the floor tonight in All-Stars Joel Embiid and James Harden, and rank ninth in offensive rating and 12th in defensive rating this season.
