#502 CHICAGO (-) over Philadelphia by 12 at 7:35 PM EST
Philadelphia checks into the Windy City off its upset win over San Antonio last night and the Sixers will run into a buzz saw here. Chicago is still upset about its last loss (in overtime) at home to Sacramento and the Bulls will be primed for this TNT battle.
Technically speaking, this is a magnificent spot for Scott Skiles and "Da Bulls". At home coming off a SU and ATS loss and matched up against a conference foe, Chicago is a sweet 66-38 ATS provided its opponent played at home last. Equally impressive, the Bulls are a sensational 20-9 ATS priced as a home favorite and matched up against a foe that checks in off a SU home dog win.
In the NBA since 1990, unrested road teams are a surprising 23-63 SU and 32-50-2 ATS provided they played San Antonio in their last game. Honestly, the Sixers have to be elated about last night's win and the LAST thing they want to do before the All-Star break is make the trek to Bulls Country. Take CHICAGO. Thank you and best of luck, Tom Stryker.
