Chicago fell victim to Milwaukee's athleticism last game, turning the ball over 26 times, leading to a 2-point loss. That's not going to happen again here as Tom Thibodeau will make sure it does not. Without the 39-25 point advantage in points-off-turnovers that the Bucks had last game, the Bulls can and should roll in this one at home. Over the past three seasons, Milwaukee is now 47-65 ATS vs. winning teams, including 29-46 ATS vs. teams like Chicago that average a winning margin of 3+ points per game. Even after their win last game, Milwaukee is now just 9-19 ATS since the All-Star break vs. teams like Chicaog that average 99+ points per game. The Bulls are 47-30 ATS since last season revenging a loss. Since Thibodeau took over in C-Town, the Bulls are 17-6 ATS after a close loss by three points or less and 65-47 ATS revenging a same-season loss. I think the Bulls wake up here and win big.
