2008 Season NBA Basketball Past Picks

This Bulls team which was young and made the playoffs two years ago was expected to mature into an annual playoff contender. Last year they completely under-achieved and many thought they'd be back again this season, but the same results. They had their best run of the season going 7-3, but have settled back to mediocrity going 3-4 in their last seven. The Bucks are injured, but competitive. The Bucks lead the NBA in one big category. They have won 16 games outright as an underdog on the season, a true indication that a team that closed last year 3-21 has come a long way, but more importantly, competes hard every night. The same can't be said about the under-achieving Bulls who are off their run and ripe to be taken. I'll back the Bucks here.
