Last Game of 9-Game Road Trip for Bulls
This is the finale of a brutally long road trip for the Bulls. Any team that has to play 9 games on the road is facing a tough test but Chicago has done really well. Chicago won five of the first seven and they were heavily favored against Charlotte on Friday so they should be 6-2 on this trip heading into Boston on Sunday. The Bulls are arguably the best team in the NBA as they play suffocating defense and they have one of the best players in the NBA in Derrick Rose. They are the only team in the NBA this season to win three straight games by 20 points or more. ''We're staying focused knowing we're on a mission,'' Rose said after the win over New Orleans, ''We can't take any steps back. We're learning. that's something I told you we had to work on. For the last couple of games we've been jumping on people and that's the right way to be.''
Celtics Winning with Defense
Boston has the top defense in the NBA this season and they are totally shutting teams down. Boston started the season slowly but they went into Thursday’s game against the Lakers having won 9 of their last 10. Maybe the Celtics have one final run in them with their aging big three of Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen.
Game Notes
The Bulls and Celtics have split their last ten meetings overall with the last three games going under the total. We’ll expect another tough defensive game on Sunday and take this game under the total with our NBA predictions. Take a look at the BetDSI Channel today for more sports betting news.
