Betting on the Chicago Bulls
- Regular Season Record: 12-8
Finally, the Bulls won after four consecutive losses. The victim was the Miami Heat, which they defeated 113-103 with a great game by Nikola Vucevic, who scored 29 points and pulled down 12 rebounds.
This game against the Knicks is the last game of the series between the two this season. They have not been able to beat them in any occasion so far: the first one they lost by a score of 128-120 and the second one they lost by 114-91 (both games were in Chicago). They’ve seen the Knicks’ numbers, so it’s a chance to beat them, even if it’s just one.
They depend a lot on the level of DeMar DeRozan and Nikola Vucevic, who come into this game on a roll. But we must mention Zach LaVine, even if he is not the most effective scorer, his playmaking accompanies him, having had 7 assists against Miami.
Betting on the New York Knicks
- Regular Season Record: 18-13
They are flying, just like that: they have 8 consecutive victories, and it is difficult to stop them, because they have been dominant in all aspects of the game. In their last meeting against Golden State, they defeated them by a scandalous score of 132-94. They dried them out in a dreadful way.
With Immanuel Quickley, Jalen Brunson, RJ Barrett, and Julius Randle they are playing amazingly well. Only Randle has 4 straight games pulling down at least 10 rebounds, and Brunson dishing out at least 5 assists.
They play co-op, New York secondary also works, so there are threats all over the place. Against the Warriors, 50 points came off the bench. Quickley is proving to be a decisive sixth man.
JefeBet Prediction
The sweep is coming. In the Knicks’ winning streak, two were against the Bulls at the United Center. This time the game is at Madison Square Garden, a place where they should have no problem dominating them even though their record is not the most convincing (8-7 at home).
It would be epic if the Bulls could stop the Knicks and their great streak, but we don’t see where. The Knicks have a more complete team and a strong bench. The game will be good because Chicago doesn’t want to lose to a classic rival again, but we’ll see if their offensive problems between the 3 big stars they have are solved in time.
Prediction: New York Knicks Moneyline.
