Atlanta at Chicago

The Chicago Bulls were caught off guard in game one and the Atlanta Hawks seem to shred the Bulls defense for a lot of easy looks. I expect Chicago to make some adjustments here for game two, but I still see Atlanta finding looks here. Chicago was very proficient inside and ended the game with 48 points in the paint and another 18 on the break. I look for them to continue to pound inside and, with both teams getting good looks, I expect this low total is going to be in jeopardy. The Hawks are now at 5-2 to the OVER in their last seven as a dog from 5-10.5 and, this series, as defensive as it may look on paper, has seen nine of the last 12 top the total, including five of the last six in Chicago. I am on the OVER here.
