CHICAGO -- After the Chicago Bulls racked up yet another quality victory Wednesday night -- the latest, a 117-107 triumph over the Dallas Mavericks at the United Center that moved them to 8-3 on the season -- their opponent took note of the way this new-look team has meshed so quickly.
"All I can say is, the Bulls are back, man," Mavericks guard Tim Hardaway Jr. said.
After beginning the season 4-0 against teams that missed the postseason a year ago, the Bulls have continued their fast start as their schedule has toughened.
