The Brooklyn Nets have been the 2nd-highest scoring offense in the NBA over the last 10 games away from their home court.The matchup vs. the Bulls is a favorable one for scoring; the opposition's starting PFs have tallied the 30th-most shots made from the field per game in the NBA this year (5.8).The Bulls have played at the 7th-speediest pace-of-play in the league over the last 5 games, which should boost opportunities for the Nets.With the home court advantage, the Bulls have given up the least offensive rebounds per game (8.7) in the league to opposing teams this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore lead to fewer opportunities for scoring and assists).The matchup vs. Chicago is a positive one for getting to the free throw line; the other team's starting PFs have attempted a whopping 3.7 free throws per game this year when the Bulls are playing at home (25th-most in the NBA).
