NBA (713) CHICAGO BULLS VS (714) SACRAMENTO KINGS. Take: (714) SACRAMENTO KINGS.
Reason: Chicago is a young team with a very good home record, but 1-3 SU/ATS on the road. And this is a long road trip. Chicago is third worst in the NBA in scoring and shooting, a weak 42% from the field. Second-year guard Derrick Rose is showing a little sophomore slump, as through nine games his three turnovers per game is .51 higher than last season''s average, while his assists average (5.3) is one fewer. The Kings have home court, have won four straight and five of six and will have not played since Friday, on a 5-1 SU/ATS run. Sacramento has been a dog the last four games, yet won them all! The uptempo Kings (104 ppg) have been a big surprise, without big names, but plenty of hustle and wins. Jason Thompson had a career-high 27 points and added 11 rebounds for the Kings, who won their fourth straight game, defeating the Houston Rockets 109-100 on Friday night -- again as a dog. It was the fifth straight double-double for Thompson. Former Bull Andres Nocioni is playing well for the Kings, too. Sacramento is 4-1 SU/ATS at home and this is their fourth straight home game. Play the Kings! |
