    Bulls Line Moved fom -10 to -8

    What does this mean? This looks sketchy, Bulls did not covered their last 2 games so they might be "due" for a cover, but I can't see the Raptors covering +8 or +10.

    why do people talk about the bulls thinking they are a good team?

    At home, as 8 point favorites or more the bulls are 4-4 ats and failed their last 2 games. Raptors are 4-2-2 as 8 point dogs or more. I think it's Raptors or no play.

    Compared to the Raptors they are. So what do you make of this line movement then?

    They are a good team lol, they have all the right pieces to be a contender in the east, they just need to pull the trigger and get a shooting guard like a JR smith or Rip Hamilton

    Someone with deep pockets like toronto here. if you like them too now wait because the line might go up on chicago.

    personally i wouldn't play chicago even with someone else's money. let alone mine. laying off, gl whatever you decide.

    Bargnani's status for the Raptors. If it went to -8, then must think he is playing.

    He is listed as Probable at the moment.

    I dunno, first off I'm a bulls fan, but the way toronto plays sometimes they surprise me....I dont think Toronto will win, but I see this game maybe ending 99-93 in favor of the Bulls...

    Have the Bulls been able to meet the point spread lately? I can think of only one game recently.

    The Bulls are a good team, they have a good record despite not even being in full force yet. Boozer was out, and now Noah is. We have yet to see the Bulls at full force. I know they can use a SG, as Keith Bogans is basically useless, but with Rose dropping the trey now, along with Brewer and Krover coming off the bench as 3 point threats, a good SG might not be necessary for them to be a good team.

    Toronto is getting a lot of guys back for this game which could be good (or bad getting everyone back at once).

    Bargnani to be eased back into it apparently so wouldn't be expecting too much from him.

    man I just have a feeling there's a lot of traps today. The books gave away too much square money yesterday.

    60-75% of the public was on the favorite from 12:30-4:30 this morning, but the line moved in favor of the underdog from +9 to +7.5 in 4 hours. The same percentage of people are still going with the favorite, and the line has now moved back up to +9. I'm all over Toronto on this one.

    Guys, watching every bulls game good and bad for years i can tell you one thing that stays the same: raptors always kick the bulls ass. look at the vs. history and you will see what i mean. it does not matter what year, team and if the bulls are doing good that year... the raptors always beat the bulls

    can't really explain why and im shocked that it is not talked about more.

    Date / Winner / Score / Cover
    12/15/10 Chicago (away) 110-93 04/11/10 Chicago (away) 104-88 Chicago (-2.5) 12/05/09 Toronto (away) 110-78 Toronto (+6.0) 11/11/09 Toronto (home) 99-89 Toronto (-5.5) 04/15/09 Toronto (away) 109-98 Toronto (+10.5) 03/29/09 Toronto (home) 134-129 Toronto (-1.5) 01/23/09 Toronto (away) 114-94 Toronto (+2.0)

    that looks ugly. either way Bulls have covered as faves the last two meetings, Toronto covered (fave twice, dog twice) prior 5 straight times
