Atlanta Hawks @ATLHawks Coach Bud says he's impressed with the Bulls, says they have more ways to attack offensively than in years past.
Nick Friedell @NickFriedell Thibs' message to Rose is very simple these days: "The more aggressive, the better. Attack, attack, attack."
Mike McGraw @McGrawDHBulls Next nine days will test the #Bulls: at Atlanta, at Memphis, at Washington -- all on the second night of back-to-backs.
Nick Friedell @NickFriedell Never ceases to amaze me just how many Bulls fans always show up in Atlanta. Bulls are a national team, but always have big base in ATL.
Nick Friedell @NickFriedell Hawks have much more energy early. Setting a bad tempo for Bulls. Thibs' D having issues again early. I agree
