LA Clippers vs Chicago Bulls Betting Picks
It is time for our Clippers vs Bulls betting picks – we like the Los Angeles Clippers to win this game. We expect the Clippers to play their guys and be at full strength. The Bulls are just too inconsistent to be able to pick them against a team like the Clippers with those NBA odds.

Do not expect this to be a blowout, but in the end, our bet for this game is the Los Angeles Clippers -4 over the Chicago Bulls.
- Pick: LA Clippers -4.
