    I like the bull+5... IMO, they will try to win this game before defending home...

    Bulls are terrible against the grizzlies for some reason. They've won like once out of the last 10 meetings in memphis. Add that to the fact boozer is out and I don't see how you can feel comfortable playing them

    rose is a good factor.. eventhough randolph is pouring heavy points and rebounds this past few games, I really have a good feeling about chicago can cover but not win the game.. but if they lose big time.. my bad...

    Bulls are terrible on the road against everybody. Now without Boozer on top of that. Memph is very good vs good teams and good after a big win.

    Line is funky too. Bulls are typically 2-3 point favs vs u500 teams on the road. In fact this is the 1st time they have been road dogs to a u500 team since the 1st time early in the season to Houston at +1. And the books bump this up to 5? Sorry but Boozer is not worth 7 points.

    My turn to use some sharpie lingo. Trap game (at least i gave my reasons as to why). I'd take Memph.

    thanks for the input

    i took the grizzlies 1st h -2.5 due to injuries and early game for Rose as a factor...hopefully they are sluggish in the 1st half

    5x
