ANALYSIS: The Bulls began a four-game road trip with their fourth straight loss, a 150-126 setback at Minnesota on Dec. 18, but bounced back to win the last three on the trek. They were underdogs in each of those contests but played better defensively and took smarter shots. The Rockets have lost five straight overall and four of their last five on the road, where they are 3-13. Expect Chicago to cover.
