Houston heads to Chicago with an explosive offense, second in the NBA in scoring. Houston is a great bounce-back team, 15-5 ATS when following a straight-up loss, as well as 19-8 ATS after a spread loss. Meanwhile, the Chicago Bulls have lost three in a row and four of their last five after losing to the Magic 98-91 on Wednesday. Jimmy Butler was just 7-of-21 shooting. Chicago is not strong on defense, #25 in the NBA in field goal shooting allowed, which will be a huge problem against the Rockets. Chicago is 8-17 ATS playing on one day of rest, while Houston is 19-9 ATS against losing teams. Play Houston.
