4* NBA BLOCKBUSTER BLOWOUT

Chicago vs. Atlanta, 01/07/2012 19:00 EDT, Score: 94 - 109

Point Spread: -6/-107 Chicago

Sportsbook: 5Dimes

Result: Loss

The Bulls got a wake-up call the first time they play the Hawks, as they needed to rally from 19-points down to win the game in the 4th quarter. Chicago won't make that same mistake against Atlanta in this game.

While Chicago is playing their fourth game in five days, the Hawks are playing their fifth game in six days. On top of that, Atlanta played a triple-overtime game against the Heat on Thursday and another overtime against the Bobcats last night. Look for the Hawks tired legs and the Bulls stingy defense to make it very hard for Atlanta to put up much of anything offensively.

Chicago 38-18-2 ATS in their last 58 when their opponent scores 100 points or more in their previous game, 25-10 ATS in their last 35 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600, and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 road games. BET THE BULLS -6!
