The "circus trip" is an annual set of road games when the Bulls leave Chicago because the circus comes to town and uses the United Center. They head out for with only 1 win this time. So there's no avoiding a better start than last year at this point. Hopefully Bulls fans and management can stay patient. I would give them until the end of the year to shape up. The circus trip has not been kind to any Bulls team... including Jordan's. Fortunately, this year's 7-game road trip doesn't include the dangerous Texas triangle. They've got Phoenix who that had success against last year. The LA teams are both beatable. Denver might be tough. The Knicks are 50/50 depending on which Knicks team shows up. And Toronto is also beatable. The it's less so related to the difficulty level of the opponents than a long road trip in the beginning of the year filled with fatiguing plane trips.
