The Oklahoma City Thunder are no longer under the radar. This team came fast and furious last year, aided by smart drafting and players that are maturing this franchise into a playoff contending team. The Bulls missed Ben Gordon a year ago, but Derrick Rose should continue his improvement. They now have a force to be reckoned with in Carlos Boozer, who is a double-double machine. However, he will be sidelined for 6-8 weeks. Joakim Noah will likely play a stronger role inside and he averaged a double-double a year ago. The Bulls finished strong last season, especially on the road, where they were 9-2 ATS to close the season. This has been a great stop for Chicago as they are 4-0 ATS in Oklahoma City the last four trips here. I like Chicago in this one.
