Studying lines and asking why Vegas has set a certain line can earn you quite a bit of money. Today I’d like to focus on the Toronto and Chicago Bulls game. Chicago is favored by just 4.5 points at home. Chicago is the type of team that does not “wow” as a whole on the court. They win in old school fashion, and do not typically win by double digits.
Toronto has a young cohesive team that has the personnel to give the Bulls fits. Rudy Gay gives any team fits, but Toronto also has a young nucleus with Derozan and Lowry. They’re also playing some of their non starters more minutes to see what type of team they can build on for next year.
Wait for this line to jump to five and take Toronto plus five tonight.
