I could actually see us 6-0 going into Boston. Just hope we put JJ on Rose in that Bulls game.

If the Hawks can go 3-2 this upcoming week then I see it as a success.

I say 2-2 with wins over OKC and New Jersey. Boston is Boston and all 3 of the Bulls wins are at home and we never win there anyway.

OKC is a new challenge for the team. It's a game against non-playoff team. I'm hoping being down a man helps keep the team focused.

Wednesday at Boston is going to be a huge game. It will be a true test of how far this team has come considering how we got trounced in all games there last year. We are truly legit if we win or it is a closely contested game. Guys are really going to have to step it up especially with Smoove being out. Hope Zaza gets into KG again and we play with a chip on our shoulders.

2-2 will work just fine for me. 3-1 is a possibility, but winning in Chi-town is starting to look like a tough task.

WE should definately go 3-1 through that trip. IDK why chicago scares yall cuz they are absoultely terrible. They arent a team at all, they just go one on one all day. Rose is good but wont lead the team to victory. At boston will be tough, but idk see why the hawks cant play motivated and keep it close or even win. Well see!
Is it to much to ask for a team that plays hard and cares? Seems so.

The Bulls are 3-0 at home this year. The Hawks have not won a road game vs. Chicago since Woodson has been coach. The Hawks are 2-9 w/o Josh Smith in the last 2 years(although they played well vs Toronto). Obviously that wouldn't be a huge upset but my gut feeling tells me they will probably lose that one. Remember-the Hawks didn't win their 1st road game until November 21st last year and only won 12 on the road during the entire season. Going 2-2 on this road trip w/o Josh would be great.

Very likely we can win against New Jersey to finish out the road trip if we can win against the champs.
