The Chicago Bulls are poised to make it to the Conference Finals. That is, if they can clinch their second round series against the Atlanta Hawks. 

If Tuesday’s victory is any indication of how the Bulls will play tonight, Chicago fans should be cautiously optimistic. The Bull’s will be leaning heavily on their star point guard and league Most Valuable Player Derrick Rose. Last game Rose scored 33 points and served up 9 assists.

Atlanta will have home-court advantage and everything to lose. The Bulls lead the best of 7 series 3 games to 2. If the Bulls lose tonight, the deciding game will be played at the United Center on Sunday.

And if you’re not a basketball fan, take advantage of less crowded grocery stores and laundromats starting at 7pm this evening.
