Chicago is without Derrick Rose and now Rip Hamilton. But, this team is getting used to having others step in and I think Marco Belinelli and/or Jimmy Butler will fill in adequately tonight. Let's not forget this team still has Deng, Boozer and Noah playing defense and an excellent coach on the sidelines. Chicago has kept its last four opponents to an average of just 86 points per game. Indiana has its own problems with Danny Granger out thanks to a knee injury. Without him, this team is averaging just 90.9 points per game (87.5 on the road) and I expect them to really struggle offensively here. Take Chicago to win and cover in this one.
