Lowly Bulls looking to get on track vs. Bobcats

Dec 1, 2007 - 2:22 PM Charlotte (6-8) at Chicago (3-10) 8:30 pm EST

CHICAGO (Ticker) - The Chicago Bulls try to win back-to-back games for the first time this season when they host the Charlotte Bobcats on Saturday.

Chicago notched just its third win of the season on Tuesday, claiming a 90-78 victory over the Atlanta Hawks.

Chicago, a popular pick to make the NBA Finals, have struggled to a 3-10 start this season under Scott Skiles, who is known for his hard-nosed style and emphasis on defense.

But the Bulls have allowed the 12th-most points in the league through 13 games and are also getting outrebounded as a team, despite the presence of two-time rebounding champion Ben Wallace.

The Bobcats have been nearly as bad as the Bulls of late and try to snap a four-game losing streak. Charlotte has been off since a 110-90 setback to the Miami Heat on Tuesday.
