After battling with the Miami Heat in a rematch of the Eastern Conference Finals on Sunday afternoon, what the Chicago Bulls really need is a nice, easy opponent to help them get back into the swing of things.
Chicago Bulls at Washington Wizards (+8.5,190)
Enter the Washington Wizards. Derrick Rose had a chance to give his team the lead and make a statement in the Eastern Conference race Sunday but missed two free throws with 22 seconds left in an eventual 97-93 setback. The Wizards have proven that they can beat the NBA-worst Charlotte Bobcats, but that is about it. Take the Bulls on the road tonight.
Take the Bulls -8.5
________
Oklahoma City at LA Clippers (-2.5, 198)
After pulling out a gutsy 109-105 road victory at Denver on Sunday, the Los Angeles Clippers don’t have much time to celebrate as they host the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday. Oklahoma City not only sports the best record in the NBA (16-3) but also has the best road record (8-2).
Take the visiting Thunder and lay the short number of -2
________
Morgon State at Hampton (pk, 130)
The Hampton Pirates are ranked 302 for offensive field goal percentage shooting 39.8% while attempting 56.5 shots per game. The Morgan St. Bears are ranked 222 for offensive field goal percentage shooting 42.0% while attempting 54.1 shots per game. The Bears, however, are a poor free throw shooting team (65.8% from the line) and are shooting a mere 29.5% for three point range.
Take Hampton at home in a pick’em affair
