Betting on the Chicago Bulls
- Regular season record: 26-27.
Although they haven’t been able to string together a winning streak longer than three games this season, the Bulls remain in Play-in positions thanks to a consistent performance.
In fact, with Monday’s win over the Spurs, the Chicago team has three wins on the trot again and this Tuesday they could be in ninth place in the Eastern Conference when they visit the struggling Grizzlies.
The Bulls have a 10-16 record as visitors this season and are set to play 4 out of their next 5 games on the road. However, under Coach Billy Donovan, the team excels against teams from the Western Conference, boasting a 17-5 record against them.
They have a balanced performance, good both offensively and defensively. The team from Chicago ranks 11th in points per game (114.6), with a 5th-best field goal percentage (49.1%) and 8th-best three-pointer percentage (37.1%). On defense, they allow an average of 114.2 points per game.
Betting on the Memphis Grizzlies
- Regular season record:32-21.
The Grizzlies have slipped in the race for first place in the Western Conference, losing 8 of their last 9 games.
This losing streak is unexpected, considering their strong performance in the first 45 games of the season; they now trail the Denver Nuggets by 4.5 games for the top spot.
One of the key issues in this slump is a decline in offensive production. While they had an average of 116.2 points per game for the season (9th best in the NBA), they scored only 110.1 points in their last 9 games, shooting 45% from the field and a poor 30.9% from beyond the arc.
The defense has also struggled: compared to 112.6 points allowed for the season, they’ve allowed an average of 117.3 points per game in the last 9 games, which includes a high 39% in three-pointers allowed.
