This is a 10* ATS BLOWOUT on the Chicago Bulls.
Chicago has been struggling of late, but a game vs. the defending and surging NBA champions is just what the doctor ordered to get re-focused in my opinion, while I obviously feel that the outright win isn't out of the question, I will in the end recommend grabbing as many points as you can. The Bulls are most recently coming off a 108-94 loss at Cleveland on Monday, the team's sixth setback in its last eight games. There's no time like the present to turn things around though, Chicago next visits Dallas, Miami and then NBA-best Golden State: "We've got to decide when enough is enough," Bulls' coach Tom Thibodeau assessed last night. "We're going to look at everything, come in, look at the film, get to work; we've got to get better. It's that simple. The way we are playing is not acceptable, so we've got to change it." Clearly the issue with the Bulls has been their play on the defensive end of the court, normally the strength of the team, Chicago has given up more than 100 points in five consecutive games, something it hasn't done since 2010: "It's just that no matter who is on the floor or who is out or who is coming back we just have to compete," star guard Derrick Rose said. "My biggest thing is competing and making sure we let the opponent know we've come to play. We're midway through the season; it's no excuses." San Antonio endured a tough stretch as well but comes in red hot, it's won four straight and eight of ten, most recently thumping Denver 109-99 on Tuesday. Two teams moving in opposite directions, but as I always like to say: "desperation breeds motivation." I think we'll see a highly concerted effort from the home side in this one, this game is basically a must win with three tough road contests in a row on the horizon. Chicago may be a bit banged up, but from a trend based stand point, this play is about as strong as you could possibly ask for, note that the Spurs are just 3-5 ATS this year after three or more consecutive SU wins and only 7-10 ATS after scoring 105 points or more. And note that the Bulls are 6-3 ATS in their last nine as a home dog in the 3.5 to 6 points range. As I said off the top, I'll hardly be surprised if CHICAGO wins this one outright.
