The Kings were not playing any sort of competitive defense early in the season, but suddenly they have stopped defending at all. It is almost like this team has given up. They have now lost seven-straight games and are giving up a shocking 120.4 ppg their last nine! When you consider the Kings themselves have only reached the 120 mark three times all season, it is hard to see this team staying in the game at this pace. The Bulls aren't headed to the playoffs either, and have struggled against the top teams on the road. They have taken advantage of the softer teams on the road covering four of their last five against teams with a losing record. The Kings are killing their backers on their own court, where they have now dropped 14 of their last 17 against the number. No defense, no cover. I will go with the Bulls here.
