Bulls at Cavaliers picks and predictions

Prediction

Cavaliers 122, Bulls 109

Moneyline

The Cavaliers (-390) will cost nearly 4 times the potential return, and that's way too risky ... even though they've won 6 in a row in this series. Chicago's last win vs. Cleveland? March 26, 2022.

AVOID and look to the spread instead.

Against the spread

CLEVELAND -9 (-112) is worth a play as the Cavs have dominated the series in the past 2 calendar years. Cleveland is 6-0 straight up (SU) and 5-0-1 ATS in the past 6 meetings in the series, including 4-1 SU/ATS in the past 5 home games against the Bulls.

Chicago has covered 6 of the past 8 games on the road since Jan. 15, which was a non-cover in Cleveland.

Over/Under

OVER 224 (-110) might be the best play in this battle in The Land.

The Over is on a 6-0 run for the Bulls, while cashing in the past 3 home games for the Cavaliers.

However, the Under has cashed in 3 in a row, and 7-3 in the past 10 in this series, including 4-1 in the past 5 matchups at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse.
