The Chicago Bulls are sure to come into this one as pretty heavy favorites, but it’s worth noting that they are a team that tends to end up playing to the level of their opposition. Does that mean that the Lakers can pull of the upset, or at least do enough to cover the spread? These are the betting decisions that you will need to make when the odds go live at MyBookie.ag.Why bet on the Chicago Bulls
As I mentioned earlier in this piece, the Chicago Bulls (25-19) are a team that seems to save their best ball for the better teams in the league. While this may serve them well once the playoffs roll around, they need to understand just how difficult it is to flick that switch when you need to come up with a big win. The Bulls are struggling right now, but they have still managed to post a winning 12-8 record versus teams with a record that sits below .500. Since the Lakers fall as far below that mark as it gets, it would suggest that the Bulls should win this one going away. The Bulls are 9-6 versus teams from the Western Conference, with a pair of those losses coming against the Warriors, who everyone are losing to. Chicago are averaging 101.3 PPG, and are giving up 100.8.
