WOUNDED WINNERS: BULLS VS. SPURS


The Bulls have done a commendable job of keeping themselves in the playoff picture despite losing their team leader Derrick Rose for the year to an ACL injury. The Spurs are all of a sudden now in a similar boat, with their leader Tony Parker out with a severely sprained ankle. The Spurs will need to band together and do what they can to score against a Bulls defense that is ranked 3rd in the league.
The Bulls have revenge, as they lost to the Spurs 103-89 in a Chicago game where the Bulls were favored by 2 points.
The Bulls have shined without their star, going 34-25 straight up and 34-25 Under– but similar to other big market teams, have left bettors holding the bag (they’re 25-32-2 ATS on the year). On the road the Bulls haven’t been too shabby, going 17-11 straight up and 16-10 ATS (15-13 Over).
The Spurs are a league leading 47-14 straight up, 33-26-2 ATS and 32-29 Under on the year. At home they’ve been almost unbeatable, going an incredible 24-3 straight up, alongside 15-11-1 ATS and 17-10 Under records.
