Phoenix averages 12 more points per game than Chicago, is home and some of its young talent are playing better.

The Bulls have lost six of their seven road games this season. They've dropped their past three away matchups by a combined 57 points.

Chicago is coming off its best offensive performance of the season, beating the Hornets at home, 123-120, this past Friday. The Bulls haven't won two games in a row all season. Now they're coming from the cold to the desert fat and happy. So focus could be an issue. Some teams can win without bringing their best effort. The Bulls aren't one of those teams.

The Suns allow the most points per game in the NBA. Chicago, however, is the second-lowest scoring team in the league and ranks last in shooting percentage. The Bulls were averaging fewer than 87 points a game during their previous three matchups before their outburst against Charlotte.

After being trounced by the Rockets on Thursday, the Suns bounced back to defeat the Lakers on the road, 122-113, on Friday. Devin Booker has become a monster ranking 13th in scoring while improving his production in the other statistical categories. T.J. Warren has displayed intriguing potential and point guard Tyler Ulis and center Alex Len had their best games of the season in the win against the Lakers. So the Suns should have a lot of confidence especially against this opponent.
