Knicks vs Bulls Prediction

I’m not running to the window to bet on the Bulls, who have a serious defensive issue and are watching their season fall apart before their eyes. The Knicks have the ability to mop the floor with the Bulls. However, the Knicks are 1-6 ATS on the season and often look like they’re dealing with a championship hangover. The Knicks’ offense is stuck in the mud most nights.

Also, the underdog has covered seven of the last nine games between the Knicks and Bulls. The Knicks are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games. This is also a potential look-ahead spot for the Knicks with the Cavs on deck. I’ll grab the double-digit points with the Bulls on the road.
