The Chicago Bulls have the NBA's best record at 34-9, and the New York Knicks have lost five in a row, but the teams look evenly matched after a quarter of play in their Monday night matchup on ESPN in Chi-town. Tyson Chandler is the game's leading scorer so far with seven points on 3-3 shooting, and Jeremy LIn, despite the hullabaloo surrounding him having completely died down, is still playing well. He has two points and four assists so far.

Derrick Rose also has seven points, but he's shooting just 3-10 and has been covered well by Lin. He still has had a few nice plays, like this one, where he went coast-to-coast:

Joakim Noah also has six points with a couple of nice dunks along the way, including this posterization of Josh Harrelson.
