Bulls vs Rockets
The Bulls travel to Houston for the easiest road matchup available in the NBA this season. The 1-16 Rockets are every bit as woeful as their record suggests. The Rockets are in the midst of a 15 game losing streak. The Bulls on the other hand are a team that has made an ascension in 2021. They currently sit third in the East and carry the league’s sixth best record. What’s more, the Bulls are likely to have Nikola Vucevic back from COVID for this game. The Bulls should have an easy enough time winning the game. The question is, will they cover?

Why Bet The Bulls
✅ The Bulls are a team that have taken the step from up and coming team to contender. A big sign that a team has taken a real step forward is being able to perform on the road. The Bulls have done just that thus far. Their 6-3 road record matches their home record identically. There is not one glaring thing the Bulls do exceptionally well on the road. That said, there is nothing they do not do either above average or good. They are in the top third of the league in points allowed, offensive efficiency and point differential. They do not have a true weakness to exploit and that spells bad news for the league’s worst team.
✅ When I say the Rockets are the league’s worst team, it is not really arguable and not an exaggeration. They notched a win in their second game of the season, all the way back on October 22nd. Since then, they have lost all 15 games, and only two were by a margin of fewer than seven points. Conversely, 11 of the 15 losses were by a double digit margin. This is a team lacking the talent and ability to compete.
✅ If there is a hole for the Bulls in road games, it would be in the defensive efficiency category. They are just middle of the pack in that statistic. This is not a matchup where that potential flaw would come to the surface. The Rockets inability to score simply can’t be understated. They are second worst in the league in offensive efficiency, which translates perfectly to second worst in scoring per game as well. The Rockets lose their home games by an average margin of nine points, and will likely see that average stretch out even further against the high end Bulls.
