10* EAST-CONF TOTAL OF MONTH - 20-12 NBA RUN!
(NBA) Chicago vs. Orlando,
Total: 216.00 | -110.00 Under
Result: Loss
This is a 10* EASTERN-CONFERENCE TOM on the UNDER Bulls/Magic.

Both teams have been involved in several higher-scoring games of late, but all signs finally point to more of a defensive battle between these Eastern Conference opponents in my opinion.

Chicago is 25-27, including only 10-15 on the road, while Orlando is 28-24, including 16-7 at home.

Chicago is coming off back-to-back wins and has now seen the total go OVER in four straight. note though that despite the rare 118-110 road win at Memphis last time out, the Bulls have still seen the total go UNDER the number in eight of their last 12 after playing to three or more straight OVERS in a row.

Orlando has won four of its last five. It beat Chicago 103-97 in Chicago back in November, and all signs point to a similar hard-fought, but ultimately lower-scoring "under" here on Saturday as well in my opinion.

Good luck, NP
