The Chicago Bulls are on a three-game skid ahead of a matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers. As a result of the three-game skid, combined with the surging Washington Wizards, the Bulls have quickly found themselves dropping out of the playoff race altogether.
According to fivethirtyeight.com, the Bulls now have a less than one percent chance of making the NBA playoffs this season. That shouldn’t be much of a surprise as the team currently sits three games behind the Wizards with both teams having eight games remaining.
