I managed to lock in the Bulls at +10.5, but either way, I think Chicago keeps this to a single-digit spread. OKC is clearly the better team in the matchup, but the Bulls defeated the Bucks by double digits just last night. Still, the Thunder have fresh legs, while Chicago is playing in the second game of a back-to-back. Take it all into consideration, and I anticipate a game that will likely hover around the spread until closing a little closer in the final minutes.
I’ve got to be honest, I’m not really sure where Oklahoma City is right now in terms of finishing out this season. I bought into the idea that they were in full on tank mode but then they beat Boston two days ago. Now the question is, how will they respond to winning? Do they go back in the tank or do they try to ride a wave of momentum? My belief is that they head back into the tank.
