The Bulls, winners of seven straight and winners of the regular season championship, now enter March Madness, where it is win or go home. Thanks to our first place finish, we received a first round bye. On Tuesday, we will face cross-town rivals, the Celtics, winners of an opening round game against the Cavaliers.
The Celtics (6-5) come in hot having beaten the Nets (6-4) in their final regular season contest and the Cavaliers (4-7) in the first round. The Celtics are a well-coached group, who feature a big three of Michael Paciej, Pat Louglin and Jonah Singer.
The Bulls are 9-1 and have beaten every team in the league at least once. We counter with a big four of Will "The Thrill" Howes (12.3 ppg), Will "Magic" Kenny (9.8 ppg), Sawyer Kilgore and Andrew Martin. Each of the big four has scored in double digits on one or more occasions. Will Howes has broken the 20 point mark twice. Andrew Martin has a high game of 17 and Will Kenny has a high mark of 19.
The Bulls have beaten the Celtics by margins of 18 and 12 in their two regular season contests. It remains to be seen how much the Celts have improved, and whether they can contain the Bulls firepower.
