Chicago at Philadelphia

These teams are the best two defensive teams in the league, but neither can be proud of their efforts in Game 2, especially Chicago who blew a huge lead. The Bulls lost two games in a row just once all season and were 15-1 straight-up after a loss. But the one thing they have done is bring the defense after a loss. I expect that after they allowed a team to shoot over 50% against them for just the fifth time all season, defense is what they are going to focus on early. The Bulls are now 16-6 to the first half UNDER as a road dog over the last two years, while Philly comes in at 2-18 to the UNDER in the first half as a favorite over the last two years. Play on the first half UNDER.
