Bulls -6.5

[dfberger23]

Don't expect the Knicks to stand a chance tonight.The Knicks are a terrible road team while the Bulls are one of the best home teams in the NBA. Rose was visibly struggling on Sunday as it was his first game back (he had 8 turnovers, his season high) but I expect him to be more settled in when they play in Chicago tonight.

Good luck tonight boys.

rose is out for the game

[dfberger23]

He's a game time decision, it sounds like he should be fine, even if he doesn't play I like this. Knicks are pathetic on the road.

I got it -6-113. Big line move overreaction. Bulls were -7 at home against Boston without Rose. Boston is better and this is a revenge game. -8.5 this morning was an appropriate number.

Exactly.

I don't bet on NBA totals.

Big time revenge game here for CHI. A possible 1st round matchup as well. No way do they drop 2 in a row to the Knicks. They'll win SU, and should cover the spread IMO, w/ or w/o Rose.

No way in hell is Melo going to have a good game today after how he burned them a couple days ago.

I like both the CHI and MIA spread tonight. Big time revenge for the home teams.

My book still has them at -7. What are the chances that waiting closer to game-time will result in a number like -6?

No chance. I think it has stabilized at -7 and you missed your chance at snagging -6.

It sounds like Rose is going to be out so when it becomes official maybe it drops.

Reading this and seeing your avatar makes the word HOMER stand out. And how are the Bulls square, if anything NY is square.

No I think it's common knowledge that he's out. Just like last week's game against Boston. Are the linesmakers telling us that the Knicks are better than the Celtics?

I got 6 at heritage

those are grade A set of titties.

On Espn Rose was interviewed and based on his comments it sounds like he don't even think he will play....Yes it would prob be a good idea to wait closer until game time for a better price. Whether Rose plays or not I think Chicago covers the 7 if you want to be safe I think if you get it to 5 that sounds great....Also with the "revenge" factor Bulls get back at the Knicks..

Aggrey Sam: Doubt Derrick goes tonight now. Heard he wants to play, but is being advised not to. Exercising caution before playoffs vs. competitiveness. about 27 minutes ago

Now we can back the Bulls at -6(-120) and the earlybird Knicks backers have a nice line which they are going to need.
Bulls -6(-120) $500
6ers -5 $500

good luck berger !! on it

Why not wait for live betting? Take a position and wait for opportunities. I placed a unit on the Bulls - 6 1/2. I'll wait for the Knicks to make a run and then try to grab the Bulls in the -2 , to plus points range, if I'm lucky.

Downside is if the Bulls come out hot and the number hangs in original range. Noah will come out with a lot of energy and he can frustrate. Lots of headcases on the Knicks. Mentally weak vs a disciplined Bulls team. Who can argue that Baron Davis, JR Smith and Melo can't snap at any time, hurting the team. Melo least likely and I give him credit for his points on Sunday. But, let's not forget that he's a 29% 3-point shooter and really doesn't have a shot he doesn't like. Deng is lanky and a top defender. No way he gets that space to shoot again, but he'll be firing anyway. Novak is the only guy that makes me nervous. He's streaky and shot well (from memory) in recent United Center game.

It got scary last Sunday when the Bulls started slow, but it worked like a charm. Opened with the Bulls - 2 . The numbers kept getting bigger and I kept hitting them. Bulls +3, +5 1/2, +7 1/2 and finally + 8 1/2. Told myself I had to stop at 8 1/2, but never witnessed that number again. Had a little more exposure than I would have liked, but boosted the roll

Have a unit on the Celtics + 7 1/2 and hoping to do the same thing here tonight. Celtics looking solid. Hope the Heat make a run and I get a chance to add. Really like how Bradley and Bass are playing. They bring energy to Celtics.

[Gamble32jn]

i got Celtics at +8 and they r playing super good atm. Also got the Cavs -6.5 as well for another big amount

[Iwinyourmoney]

Huge on Knicks +8.5

[krk1030]

knicks will win su

Better off to take the points and pray.

Huge on Knicks +8.5

Anything can happen, but weren't you suspicious when the books hung that big number out? They wanted your money.

KC Johnson says rose has improved considerably through the day and is a true game time decision

interesting....you from Chicago?

interesting....you from Chicago?

Originally but moved to England 5 years ago. Still a big bulls, bears and white sox fan. It's a pain following it here with the time difference but it's worth it

[Speedy88]

Sounds like he'll be a gametime decision according to the lady on NBA shootaround. If they weren't playing Miami in 2 days, I think he'd definitely play tonight. But they need him more for Thursday's game against Miami than today's game. CHI should still be able to beat NY w/o Rose.

They want Knicks money chief -- not Bulls money.

[kufan11]

so...the bulls got beat by the knicks last time they played...and now they likely wont have rose and if they do he will be hurt...and i get 7 points to take the knicks...and everyone and their mom is on the bulls...i think im gonna take the knicks...yea.

52% of bets on NY
48% of bets on chi

To be exact...

With the VIG this is best thing ever for books. Whoever wins they pay out the other half comes back with 10% and there up either way...
