Miami at Chicago

The Chicago Bulls carry the best record and the best defense to the No.1 seed in the playoffs for as long as they survive. Miami has used their talented big three which have made the commitment on defense during the playoffs to ride them to the Eastern Conference Finals. Round three and game one has long been known for teams coming out and feeling their way offensively, while trying to break the others’ will on defense. It has led to a 22-12-1 mark to the UNDER in this round's opening game. I know this is a different team, but the franchise signature here, playing to get to the Championship has been defense with nine straight to the UNDER in the conference finals. The Bulls are now 9-3 in their last 12 at home facing a team with a winning road record. These clubs have played low and ugly in their last 13 meetings leading to a 10-3 under mark, including 6-1 to the UNDER in Chi-town. The UNDER is the call.
