LiontipsChicago vs Boston. Predictions and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
Chicago has almost no chance to fight for a playoff spot. Only six matches left for the Bulls and they are four wins away from tenth-placed Washington. Looking at Wizards' recent form, it's unlikely that Bulls will catch up to them.
Billy Donovan's men can only blame themselves - they lost four out of last five matches. Seems like trade for Vucevic was a big mistake. Chicago plays worser, when ex-Orlando player is on the court. It looks like Zach LaVine and Vucevic just can't play together.
Boston is doing their best to hold on to the sixth spot in the Eastern Conference. This position will let them to start the playoffs from the second round. But keeping it wouldn't be easy, because Miami has the same number of wins, team from Florida is only behind on tiebreaks.
In last four matches Boston has three wins. Stevens' side managed to beat Orlando (132:96), San Antonio (143:140) and Charlotte (120:111). Their only loss came from a game against Portland (119:129).

Only in three of their last ten away matches Boston failed to score 111 points. Probably Celtics will break this total again. Chicago is not playing well on defense, plus Donovan's team is out of motivation and are already dreaming of a vacation.
Our prediction - Boston's individual total over 111 points
Boston beats Chicago on a regular basis. In 4 out of last 5 games at United Center Celtics came out as winners. We believe that they will succeed in this game as well.
