Los Angeles Clippers vs. Chicago Bulls Prediction
The Los Angeles Clippers have the ability to blow doors down when at full strength. However, the Clippers have suffered some strange losses as of late, and they have a questionable Harden and Leonard. If the Clippers don’t play Leonard, Harden and Westbrook, I don’t want to score points with them on the road. The Chicago Bulls are coming off a nice road win against the Pacers and you can argue that they will have the health advantage if the Clippers lose three of their top four players. Give me the Bulls’ pet dog.
