The Chicago Bulls will attempt to even their series against the Philadelphia 76ers with a Game 6 win at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on Thursday night. The Bulls have been hammered by injury since the start of the series, losing Derrick Rose in Game 1 and Joakim Noah in Game 3. Noah severely sprained his ankle, and while his return for the series was initially termed unlikely, the Bulls announced prior to Game 6 that he will be available to play if needed.
