Houston Rockets vs Chicago Bulls
Spread: Bulls -7.5
Over/Under: 230.5
The Houston Rockets are off to a surprising 5-3 start this season, but they will face their toughest test yet when they take on the Chicago Bulls on Friday night. The Bulls are currently the best team in the Eastern Conference with a 7-1 record, and they have won their last five games by an average of 15.6 points.
The Rockets have been playing well lately, but they are still a young team with a lot of room to grow. They are also banged up, as Christian Wood and Kevin Porter Jr. are both listed as questionable for Friday's game. The Bulls, on the other hand, are healthy and have a lot of experience. They are also led by one of the best players in the league in DeMar DeRozan.
We think the Bulls are the better team in this matchup, and we expect them to win and cover the spread. The Rockets have been playing well, but they are still a young team that is prone to mistakes. The Bulls are a more experienced team, and they have a lot of talent. We think they will be too much for the Rockets to handle.
