The Chicago Bulls began the regular season with a blowout win over the New York Knicks on Wednesday night. Now, they're set for their home opener Halloween night for a 7 p.m. game against LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers.

According to the Chicago Tribune's K.C. Johnson, there is also a chance Kirk gets to start alongside Derrick Rose at shooting guard tonight with Jimmy Butler being a gametime decision.

If Butler can't play, Kirk Hinrich will start. And the Bulls will lose a key defender for LeBron James.
