Knicks Games and Bulls Record- last year vs. this year

So last year, the Bulls went into their 13th game with a 3-9 record to play the New York Knicks. The Bulls won 106-95 to go 4-9. That game began the bulls start of a 7 game winning streak which helped them get back into their season. This year the Bulls go into New York with a 2-8 record. Hopefully, Saturday's game this year vs. the Knicks can do the same thing. Also interesting, last year's game was the last game of the road trip last year, and Saturday's game is the 2nd to last game of the road trip. Can something be in the works for the bulls? Can this game get them started in the right direction to the season? Well i sure hope so.
