Bulls News: Chicago Unsure What's Causing Home-Court Struggles

The Chicago Bulls are one of the best teams in the East, but they've fallen short of their expectations of being at the top of the conference.

One of the biggest reasons for that is their struggles at home - the Bulls are only 12-10 at the United Center, yet are 15-5 on the road. Several players were asked following their latest home loss to the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday.

“I have no idea,” Derrick Rose said. “Who knows? If I had the answer, I wish I could tell you. Who knows? It’s just something we have to figure out. It’s frustrating starting off games and losing games like this.”

“People get extra excited to play here,” Pau Gasol explains. “We haven’t really played our best on our court. I can’t really pinpoint why we’re not as successful at home.”

Chicago's next game is Monday night in Cleveland against the Cavaliers, but will try and fix their home troubles Thursday against the San Antonio Spurs.
