Holding on to a solid 8-4 record, the Portland Trailblazers showed early in the season that their undisputed goal is to secure home-court advantage in this year’s NBA campaign. Thus, Brandon Roy and the Blazers will host the Chicago Bulls at Rose Garden Arena on Tuesday at 3 a.m. GMT.

Albeit not quite as impressive as the Blazers, the Bulls are fairly content with their season start. More precisely, Chicago posted a 6-4 record and managed to win two straight versus the Philadelphia 76ers and Sacramento Kings. A big part of the Bulls’ early success has been the fully recovered Luol Deng who provided the team with a valuable low-post presence at 17.4 points and 9.3 assists per contest. Likewise, 2008 first overall pick Derrick Rose is continuing to improve and has quietly become one of the best playmakers in the Eastern Conference.

Similarly, the Portland Trailblazers also feature a fairly young team that has plenty of good years ahead of it. With Brandon Roy becoming the franchise’s heart and soul, the Blazers’ front-office was able to surround the All-Star with a lot of talent that has started to pay dividends. In fact, coach Nate McMillan’s primary problem is to distribute minutes evenly and keep everyone pleased, after all Portland has one of the deepest rosters in the league. Just coming back from a successful road trip with four wins in five games, the Blazers are confidently entering their encounter with the Chicago Bulls. As far as matchups go, Chicago’s only clear advantage is Derrick Rose who will most likely blow by any look the Trailblazers can throw at him. That said, Brandon Roy will be a tough task for the Bulls’ defense and their ability to contain him to some extent might be a crucial issue down the stretch.
