Why the Lakers and Bulls Are Defying Expectations with Their Surprising Pace This Season

Let’s look at the situational side of this game. The Lakers are on a very long road trip. This is game four of eight. They are also coming off a game where they had some emotional ties as they beat Dallas 116-110. The Mavericks were winning late before the Lakers closed the game strong. The Bulls are coming off a major win over the Celtics on a big night. They leave Chicago for a one-game trip, then play the Heat three games in a row, which is really odd. The Bulls are playing well at the moment, but the key here should be whichever team decides to play defense. The total seems a bit too high for a game with the Lakers. Luka likes to walk the ball up and back down his defender. The Bulls want to run a bit, but will likely need to slow pace a little bit as the Lakers defensive scheme doesn’t allow too many transition buckets – at least when they are playing well. Most games from the Lakers haven’t even been close to over 235.5, and I don’t think this one will be either. Give me the under.
