After winning the first three games of the season, the Chicago Bulls have now lost three straight games. Can the Bulls bounce back against the Orlando Magic on Monday night?

The Chicago Bulls and the Orlando Magic are complete opposites of each other.

After becoming one of the first week’s big surprises with a 3-0 start to the season, the Bulls are in an early-season funk, losing three straight games to drop to .500 after a loss in Indianapolis on Saturday night.

As for the Evan “Never Google” Fournier and the Magic, they’re going in the other direction. Orlando started 0-3, but with wins over Philadelphia, Sacramento and Washington, the Magic sit at .500; tied with the Bulls for the eighth playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.

Monday night brings a familiar face back to the United Center in the form of former Indiana Pacers head coach and new Magic head coach Frank Vogel. The former coach of the Pacers led Indiana’s team to the postseason in five of the six seasons he spent in Indianapolis, going to the conference finals twice and always giving the Bulls all they could handle during their divisional matchups.

For this breakdown, we’ll take a look at where each team is coming into Monday’s game, what the projected starting lineups will feature, and a final score prediction.
