    Main reasoning is guessing the public will continue to pound the Bulls and drive the number up. If the line stays at 4 or dips I will be concerned. But I can't back Atlanta at this point either because of their sub par record versus good teams. With all the players who contributed last night I don't see the Bulls having too many fatigue issues either.

    I am leaning towards Hawks or maybe the under might be better

    Bulls are rolling but shaky on the road, and Atlanta is due for a good home game. Hawks +4.5 is looking good, but Chicago may be playing too good to go against. A no play for me.

    Line moved the other way even though the majority of the public is backing the Bulls in great numbers.

    Bulls are going to take this one!!!

    Boozer just came back, so they are still rolling with some momentum. They are the most consistent team in the East.

    And they have the size to neutralize Atlantas big men.

    Even in the game description on the guide says the bulls are 15-5 on the second game of back to backs this year.

    I know the last loss on a B2B was Indiana on the road.
    Indiana had 3 days rest.

    Bulls sat out their starters last night for the entire 4th quarter. Bulls are 15-1 SU with a healthy Boozer and Noah getting their normal minutes, the only loss actually was @ Chicago. Rose had his worst game of the entire year shooting 23% and the Bulls still led in the 4th quarter and only lost by 3.

    Some stats to back up your statement, Hawks are just 10-19 ATS vs teams with a winning record and 9-20 SU. Bulls are 19-8 ATS when playing a team with a winning record and and are 9-3 ATS in the 2H of the season. Also in the last 25 Hawks losses, they have only kept one loss within 5 points and that was a 2 point loss at home as -7.5 faves vs Charlotte. Lots of luck on your play.

    Nice write up Sweet Jones. I didn't have the numbers in front of me at work, only knew the Bulls were much better against winning teams than the Hawks this year and some of the starters really should be pretty rested after last night.

    The number concerns me a bit, especially seeing 80% on Chicago and not much movement. However, I think we are on the right side here.

    Good luck tonight everyone.

    Jones you the man but you left out one stat.

    Bulls are 0-5 SU last 5 in ATL


    They do not play well in ATL add to the fact they are on a back to back

    Only 1 of those with this season, the game where they blew a big lead. This is a different team. They remember that game, pretty sure they remember it well.

    Another thing you left out.

    A fallacy in gambling is chasing the other way. 5 reds, play black.

    You can't compare roulette to sports wagering, its not the same.


    Some teams just dont play well in certain cities for whatever reason

    Also look at line movement. People pounding bulls yet line is still pretty much -4 although some books dropped it to 3.5

    Bulls loss to pacers gives us 1.5 to 2.5 added value to the line. That game was same scenario, 2nd of B2B. If the winning streak hadnt been snapped its probably -6.
    Not big, but i am riding on this one.

    dont try that one at the casino, I,ve seen the reds/blk, odds/even, 1st 18, 2nd 18 go for 10 straight more often than you would think

    Yeah, thus why it is a gambling fallacy. Mother warned us about such fallacy but the natural instinct in us somehow, somewhere just wants to go against what mother taught.

    So if we void of our emotions, the trend continues that will look like this.

    0-6 for chicago loses when playing in Atlanta?
