NBA schedule: Knicks, Bulls headline busy Saturday

Saturday's NBA schedule is jam-packed with 10 games and 20 teams taking the court, and the Eastern Conference-leading New York Knicks visiting Luol Deng and the Chicago Bulls headlines the night.

The Knicks (14-4) have won five straight games and find themselves leading the Eastern Conference after beating the Miami Heat on Thursday night, despite missing star player Carmelo Anthony against the defending NBA champions. New York has now defeated Miami twice this season and both have been impressive victories.

Now 10-8 on the season, the Chicago Bulls have been managing their way through the season without star player Derrick Rose. As expected, Chicago's offense would struggle to score points, but the team has continued their impressive defensive effort on a nightly basis.

This will be the first meeting between the two teams this season.
