3* NBA SMASH on Bulls +3.5
The Bulls are playing their best basketball of the season. They have won three in a row and five of six, and they will be very focused tonight as they look to avenge last month's embarrassing 21-point loss in LA.

Since coach Thibodeau took over, Chicago is an awesome 16-5 ATS in home games when out for revenge for a same-season loss to an opponent. They have won by an average score of 95.1 to 86.3 in these games.

If you're going to pick a night to fade the Clippers, Tuesday has got to be the night. Consider that LA is just 1-10 ATS when playing on Tuesday evening the last three seasons.

The Clippers have struggled on the road lately. They are 1-3 SU and 0-4 ATS in their last four road games with the win coming by just one points. It is also worth noting that the Clippers are 0-5 ATS in their last five games versus a team with a winning record. Bet the Bulls.
