The Golden State Warriors have nine players on their injury list, but one thing it doesn't do is slow down their offense, but it also makes a bad defense worse, if that is imaginable. The Warriors have allowed 100+ in 15 of the last 16, with the other game showing 99. The 16 games show a defense allowing 112.4 points per game. The Bulls took a longtime to shake off the loss of Ben Gordon as the offense struggled to just three games over 100 points in their first 29, and the highest point total was 101. Amazingly in their last 10 games, they have equaled or surpassed that high mark six times, and are averaging 112 ppg in their last four. This has the makings of a shootout as the Bulls are really getting after it on the offensive end, and won't meet any resistance here. OVER gets the call.
