It’s only been 2½ weeks since the Brooklyn Nets went to United Center and beat the Chicago Bulls 96-93 for a Brooklyn-era record-tying seventh straight win, but the Bulls will be a very different team Sunday than they were on Dec. 19.
For starters, the Bulls no longer have Justin Holiday, who started at small forward in Chicago’s first 38 games before he was traded to the Memphis Grizzlies for Wayne Selden and former Net MarShon Brooks, plus two second-round picks, on Thursday.
Instead, rookie Chandler Hutchison moved into the starting unit for the Bulls in Friday’s 119-116 overtime loss at home to the Indiana Pacers.
