Can't figure out the line on this bulls game

[rnunez91]

Don't get how bulls were +2.5 with nnee now only +2 with nnee out. Makes no sense.. Losing nene is HUGE on every aspect of offense and defense.

Vegas begging u to take bulls..Wiz wins obviously

I thought the same thing initially. But the Bulls were already squeezing him out by the 3rd game. He only managed 4 rebounds and shot poorly. The Bulls have made their defensive adjustments and he's not going to be nearly as impressive in Game 5 onward.

It should be a very close game. The low total has me siding with the bulls tho.

you really think they made defensive adjustments? how would that game go if Dunleavy didn't go mental?

[Chi_archie]

did the linesmakers maybe anticipate the Nene suspension when making the initial lines?

The wizards are a better team at home and will win with ease.

Specific to Nene's impact, yes. They locked him down and aren't likely to let him be a major factor in subsequent games. Beal/Wall stepped up, as they needed to, because the Bulls were performing better in the paint. We'll see a lot more shots taken from the backcourt in Game 4.
