Aside from Rose the rest of the Bulls roster also need to step up their game a notch higher to defeat the Hawks.The Bulls must also do their best not to allow the Hawks to dominate on the paint by playing huge on defense against the big boys of the Hawks.
The Bulls might be picked to lose in this game but the team can still prove the odd-makers wrong by giving it their all come game-time.The visiting Hawks for its part will be in for a tough challenge against the Bulls.
To defeat the Bulls the Hawks must learn how to stop Rose from scoring big for his team.If the Hawks can learn to limit the point production of Rose in this game they have a better chance of defeating the Bulls in this game.
As the favorite to prevail over the Bulls, the Hawks need to capitalized on its bigger front-line by pounding the ball more on the inside to defeat the Bulls.Hawks dependable center Al Horford need to score, rebound and blocks shots more to defeat the Bulls.
