Chicago vs Atlanta Bets look to be a dicey wager on Wednesday night from Chicago. Yes, the Play-In Round can be hard to gauge. However, this helps determine the Round 1 matchups which begin over the weekend. Yes, the Chicago Bulls have home-court advantage. Can they overcome their lackluster record at United Center (20-21). BetUS Sportsbook Review fires up a few predictions for this Eastern Conference showdown.
Chicago vs Atlanta Bets can be adventurous on Wednesday night. Now, the Bulls were 20-21 at home this season in Chicago. This seems hard to believe but that actually happened. The one bit of good news is that Atlanta plays so much worse on the road. Yes, the Hawks were 15-26 away from home and losers of six straight and seven of their final ten games. At least, Chicago split their remaining ten contests.
Bluntly, Chicago as the nine seed has a chance to play for the 8-seed on Friday night if they win on Wednesday. Atlanta allows more than 120 points per game overall (28th in the NBA). If the Bulls can just not turn the ball over, history tends to be on their side. What do we mean? Check this out?
Alright, throwing semantics aside, this is an NBA playoff game err a chance to advance to the final part of the Play-In Round. Meanwhile, the loser goes home. Chicago gets a reasonable three-point number here and usually the home team is good for about three points anyway. Keep in mind, getting this line now may be better as this could move to 3.5 or even 4 points perhaps by Wednesday.
Anyway, shop and hunt for numbers here. Again, that three is solid, but if that moneyline fans out beyond -150, it is not truly worth a pick. That is why taking a small wager on the spread is a little better of a plan on Wednesday night. The real question for the Bulls may prove to be Friday night but stay tuned. Take the Bulls laying three points.
Chicago vs Atlanta bets aim for the props on Wednesday. NBA Online Prop Bets remain poised to give us a few extra options in this midweek clash. Some started to ask about first-half Overs and first to this or that. Okay, let us hold off on that for a bit. Let’s take a look at a few simple props to start.
Naturally, this needs a little more sense and sensibility. Alright, how far does one dive into the Overs on Wednesday night? The Game Over here lies at 220.5. One has to believe Chicago can score a bunch of points but will Atlanta score their fair share? Now, that answer may be yes as the Hawks do average 118.3 points per game themselves. If they can get around 110 or more, this feels like a reasonable wager.
Yes, this sets things up well again for more Nikola Vucevic props. Taking two shots with Nikola Vucevic at 20+ points (-125) and 25+ points (+205) are considerations. Also, we even like that crazy prop for 15+ rebounds at +225. It is that kind of night and the Chicago focus for offense should be with the big man.
So, that +205 number for Vucevic is our plan for the Chicago vs Atlanta Bets. Yes, more props come at you below. Again, moving the spread to 4.5 gets a bettor to +110 but that -1.5 first half spread at -110 is a safer wager. Chicago merely needs to be up by a basket at halftime. Anyway, hit up that Vucevic scoring prop first on Wednesday night. Ask questions later.
Chicago vs Washington bets attempt to feast on more props. So, the key is to keep looking at the numbers. After all, this is because there is some time between now and the Eastern Conference Play-In games on Wednesday night. Remember what we said about Atlanta yielding more than 118 points a game? Exactly! That is a shot worth taking. Consider Chicago’s over is at 111.5 points. That offers us an opening.
First, take a look at the over set at 114.5 points (+190). One can always back off a little. The idea is that both teams will want to push the pace. Atlanta will know they need to score points. That should open up enough opportunities for the Bulls to run.
Next, there is the Chicago Race To 10 points at -120. That is reasonable given that Atlanta gets off to cold starts on the road. Diving back into the player props leans on the defensive side of things. Could Vucevic get 2+ blocks on Wednesday night? This is rolling in at a whopping +250. Expect the big man to be a wall inside altering and blocking Hawks shots.
NBA Vegas Online betting odds get with the Wednesday schedule. Chicago and Atlanta is not the only game after all. There is that other East game with pomp and circumstance. The Heat and 76ers could be good fun and solid betting especially on the Philadelphia side. Now, that the 76ers are healthy, they may unload and punch their ticket as the 7th seed.
If Chicago and Miami played each other, now that gets interesting. Chicago lost to Miami last year in the second play-in game. Miami went all the way to the NBA Final losing in five games to Denver. Let us see what happens.
