Los Angeles at Chicago

The Bulls have their defensive swagger going again and have held 10 opponents to less than 90 points on the season, including five of their last six. This is a team without their PG Derrick Rose, but the Bulls have done a great job sharing the ball with five players averaging doubles. The Clippers have been getting after it on the defensive end themselves, holding their last six opponents to 92 points per game. They held Chicago to 80 points in their first meeting this season, and the Bulls will be out for payback here. That means stepping up the intensity on the defensive end. The Bulls are 23-8 to the UNDER in their last 31 overall, and 5-0 to the UNDER with fresh legs - on two day’s rest. The Bulls also are 19-7 to the UNDER in their last 26 against teams over .600, and will bring the defense tonight. Go with the UNDER.
