Chicago Bulls vs LA Clippers Prediction
The Bulls just aren’t a team I’m excited to back and it’s no different here on the end of a back-to-back. The Clippers have the rest advantage at home and they’ve covered 8 of their last 10 games. The Clippers are 36-29 ATS on the season. This is also a revenge spot after the Clippers were embarrassed by the Bulls in January. Thick number, but I have little use for the Bulls these days and the Clippers keep cashing tickets. Give me the home team in a blowout.
