This OKC team isn't one to show up and lay a dud. They get up for every game because they are so young. They beat the Heat at home. I'm leaning heavy on a big ML play, I already locked in the -5. Where ya at BigDofA?

I think we will win but I'm not sure about the spread. The Bulls are tough as nails.
I think Chicago is a better team than we are and they are great ATS so I would be careful. I will have no bet on this one but I feel like OKC should cover at home against a Bulls team without Rose.
I was wrong about the Thunder in LA the other night so maybe I'm not as in tune with the team right now. Good luck.Comment -
You know Lucas/Watson will play hard but they can't matchup versus Russell Westbrook. Durant is better than Deng. Ibaka and Perkins should be up for the game versus Boozer/Noah. OKC's depth I think will carry them to a 8-10 pt victory.Comment -
I hope so.
I would take Boozer/Noah combo over Ibaka/Perkins.
Ibaka is still a raw talent. The dude is only like 21 years old.Comment -
Let us remember last time what happened when the heat played bulls with no rose
Plus how often have teams been covering ats when their superstar is out? It seems to be happening all too much lately...Comment -
Collison is solid off bench and matches up with Taj Gibson. Bulls are #1 seed in East - maybe won't be as pumped up to go to OKC and try to get a big victoryComment -
That game was in ChiOriginally posted by dwluv3333Comment -
Just sayin, bulls have proved they can compete against anyone without rose cuz they have such good team defense and make up for their lack of offensive stars by having one of the best assists/game in the league. I still like bulls to cover, but not sure who wins SU.Originally posted by BigDeem5Comment -
Agreed. I think Bulls would try to come and prove that Rose isnt the end all reason they win by coming strong against a tough OKC. I think everyone will pound OKC tonight and Bulls will get more points by tomorrow, and then I think Ill jump on the Bulls PL, not mlOriginally posted by dwluv3333Comment -
OKC IS very consistant like you say but I have seen them lay a few eggs. I'm not saying that happens tomorrow. I think it will come down to the wire...Comment -
Ibaka and Perkins aren't better than Noah boozer and Gibson though .. Bulls have a monster in Gibson off the bench u have to remember that as well .. And brewer plays lock down d so u can forget harden doing anything todayComment -
There is no way I am laying 5points vs us unless it's in Miami in the playoffs. Like BigD says its OKC ml or nothing on the sides but I am not betting against us today. I like the look of the under though and may play a prop on noah reboundsComment -
With D-Rose out, the team seems to buckle up on defense. Boozer seems to step up, esp on defense. Deng can really check up on Durant, really underrated defender. I can see the bulls keeping this game closing. they have to play great defense and stop the thunder from scoing easy transition points. Could be a slow, low scoing game which is why ima play the total because game could come down to freethrows at the end. Good luck to all.
Nice to have Basketball on sunday noons.Comment -
I have a lot of confidence in this OKC team, on the ml and the -5Comment -

Bulls are playing terrible todayComment -
Bulls ******* suck DICCKComment -
Looking good so farComment -
Didn't know being down 10 is looking good .....Comment -
Bulls are a fuccking joke I knew this shiy was a trapComment -
How was it a trap?
Why would you bet against OKC at home?
The line was about what it should have been. OKC was a solid favorite against the team that has the best record in the league.Comment -
6.5 point favorites against the "best" team in the league is a trapComment -
Well, I'm glad I hit this -5 early and ML -235. The Thunder are in a zone right now. They want to prove to the league they're young but great. They're pretty successful too. Bulls are a bunch of role players without Rose. They're lucky to still be #1 in East while Rose is nursing his injury.Comment -
I'd like to see you justify the latter part of your statement. These "role players" are 14-6 without the reigning MVP, including a win over the Heat. Also, how exactly are we lucky to be still #1 in he east? Our star player and 2nd best player have had a succession of injuries this year, yet we are still by far the most consistent team in the eastOriginally posted by BigDeem5Comment
