The Cleveland Cavaliers have held their own vs. some good teams, but in the end the result is the same. They can't finish and it has left them at 4-14 on the season. Some of those good teams played just good enough to win, and did. At 8-8 are the Bulls are in no such position to be taking the Cavaliers lightly, as they are a good team minus a star player, and can't afford a "mail in" game vs. a team they know they can beat. They already own a 29-point win this season vs. the Cavs and they need a win here to push themselves over the .500 mark for the season. The Cavs have lost their home court advantage with the departure of LeBron to Miami, and stand just 7-19 ATS in their last 26 at home. The Bulls reign supreme on the road vs. teams with a home winning percentage under .400 at 20-7 ATS in their last 27. Back Chicago in this one.
