T.M. Selection: Bulls/76ers OVER.

I am on the over in the Chicago Bulls vs Philadelphia 76ers game on Monday. The Bulls haven't looked good in their games lately losing 4 in a row now but they have still been putting up a ton of points in their games lately despite losing a lot. They have put up 110+ points in 6/7 of their previous 7 games and they have been putting up 99+ points for 19 games in a row, only scoring 99 in 1 of those games. Their offense has looked great lately and I think with all of the losses piling up lately, they are going to come out strong in this game to try and break out of their funk so I expect them to put up a lot of points here. They have been putting up a lot of points but they have still lost 4 games in a row which means they have been giving up even more points than they are scoring. They have given up 100+ points for 20 games in a row now and they have even given up 110+ points in 15/20 of those games. Their defensive effort has been terrible lately and the 76ers are a very good team on their home court, especially now that Harden has been rolling for them so the Bulls are going to need to once again abandon their defense here and keep putting up points in this game just to keep up. The 76ers were also involved in a lot of high scoring games lately too, they had 5 games in a row where both teams put up 100+ points before their most recent game where their offense was completely stunted losing by 17 points and only putting up 82 in the game. I think they will be looking to bounce back on their home court and after a very bad offensive game like that, I expect the 76ers to respond by putting up a ton of points here. I think both teams aren't going to play defense that well in this game and I see there being a lot of points put up by both teams. I like the over in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 126-120 76ers.
