Bulls Host Bucks on Friday
The Chicago Bulls play host to the Milwaukee Bucks at United Center on Friday.

The Bucks (39-21) have found their form since the All-Star break, coming into this matchup winning four straight games. That's the club we all expected to see, and it looks like they're finally finding their form under Doc Rivers. What makes this team so scary is that they're sitting third in the Eastern Conference and haven't been clicking all year. They're actually just 0.5 games behind the Cleveland Cavaliers in second, and many people believe Milwaukee is the much better team. As long as they have Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard playing up to their lofty expectations, this team shouldn't lose many games from here on out.

The Bulls (28-31) played an epic game on Wednesday, beating the Cleveland Cavaliers in double overtime. They made a brilliant roster decision in that victory, starting Andre Drummond against a huge Cleveland team. Drummond finished that game with 17 points and 26 rebounds. DeMar DeRozan carried the load, though, collecting 35 points, 10 rebounds and five assists. They also got 14 points, eight rebounds and 12 assists across 50 minutes from Coby White, and it's a miracle this team won with those two combining to shoot 13-of-46 from the field. In any case, a win is a win, rebounding after an ugly loss against the Detroit Pistons.

These teams have played three times this season, with Milwaukee winning three of their last four games over Chicago. With that said, the last two matchups both went into overtime.
