Dallas Mavericks vs Chicago Bulls prediction
The Dallas Mavericks in the favorite role on the road isn’t my favorite spot, but they should win this game against a Bulls team that’s had issues stringing together success. Right when you think the Bulls have figured things out, they fall on their face. The Mavs have the offense to give any team trouble, and they’re a solid 17-13 SU on the road this season. The Bulls are coming off a long west coast road trip and haven’t had much time to regroup. The line is reasonable. Give me the Mavericks on the road.
