The Bulls are my team and I have faded them twice this week and lost on both -- but major circumstances on both. They got the Heat without Jimmy Butler on Tuesday and then a fluky buzzer-beater in Atlanta on Wednesday. The Knicks just won two games in Chicago last week and get Quentin Grimes back after missing Wednesday. Chicago is without starting guard Alex Caruso, a key to their not-very-good defense, and a few rotational reserves. I'm honestly looking forward to a Christmas Eve without NHL or NBA or NCAAB. It's mentally taxing trying to do homework on all those along with NFL, college football and SL writing duties. But wouldn't change a thing.
