Chicago Bulls (12-5) vs. Indiana Pacers (7-11)
The Chicago Bulls strength of schedule finally begins to soften.
For the last three or so weeks, the Chicago Bulls have gone toe-to-toe with some of the best teams the National Basketball Association has to offer. Outside of a clunker against the Golden State Warriors, the Bulls proved they can play with just about anybody in the NBA, posting a very respectable 3-2 record on a West Coast road trip that they have traditionally struggled on each and every year.
The Bulls capped off this difficult stretch of schedule by avenging an earlier loss against Derrick Rose, Taj Gibson, Tom Thibodeau, and the New York Knicks.
