Today on NBA Power Rankings, the Chicago Bulls are on a tear in the Eastern Conference.

The rest of the league should be on notice: the Chicago Bulls mean business.

On last week’s NBA Power Rankings, the Golden State Warriors reigned supreme at the top of the standings while the Portland Trail Blazers and Atlanta Hawks were on the rise.
