Prediction

The Bulls haven't been bad so far this season but they have faced some very tough teams like the 76ers, Celtics and Cavaliers but they beat the Nets 2 of 3 times last season. The Nets have been struggling and just won their second game of the season vs Pacers who have one of the worst defenses in the NBA. With the Nuggets playing awful defense I think the Bulls will take advantage of that and steal the win on the road. Take the Bulls.
