The Demoralizing Truth About Chicago Extending Their Winning Streak

Last night, the Chicago Bulls defeated the Philadelphia 76ers 109-102 to push their league-best winning streak to five games. This entire season has been a tale of runs. They began the year 5-0, then dropped five in a row shortly after. Next, they won three out of their next four before chaos ensued, and the team proceeded to lose seven straight. Today, they are riding two wins over the Cleveland Cavaliers, followed by two more over the Atlanta Hawks, having just beaten three teams ahead of them in the Eastern Conference standings.
