Chicago Bulls vs Cleveland Cavaliers prediction
The Chicago Bulls are an inconsistent team, and you’re just never sure which side is going to show up from game to game. Right when you’re ready to give the Bulls some love, they fall apart in bizarre fashion. The Cleveland Cavaliers have been one of the hotter teams in the league for the last month or so, and they’re as healthy as they’ve been in quite some time. The Cavs have also won 6 straight games against the Bulls and are 5-0-1 ATS in those games. Thick line, but I have no choice but to side with the Cavaliers here.
