Spread & Over/Under Predictions for Hornets at Bulls

Can the Hornets cover the spread?

Each game day, we at All Hornets will release an article on our thoughts on the spread and the over/under of Charlotte Hornets games. The star ratings next to the play describe the overall confidence in that particular play.

Star ratings:

1 Star - Not very confident

2 Star - A little confident

3 Star - Fairly confident

4 Star - Very confident

5 Star - Should be a lock to happen

Spread: Bulls -6.5

4 Star play on the Hornets: What is wrong with me? Am I really putting this strong of a play on the bugs? Eh, what the heck, why not? I called Charlotte's win over Miami earlier in the week and although I won't go that far this time, I do believe the Hornets cover. This is a pretty large number for a team that has lost three of its last four and six of its last ten. Charlotte didn't play particularly well the other night in Milwaukee, so this is a good bounce back spot for them.

Over/Under: 236.5

1 Star play on the under: I wanted to go with the over initially before I really started to dive into the numbers. But after looking at all the data, it's hard to go that way. In the two previous meetings this season, the total between these two has landed at 194 and 207. Going back even further, five of the last seven for the Hornets in Chicago have stayed under the number. Not to mention, the under has cashed in five of the Bulls' last six games as well.

My picks for the season

ATS: 14-13 (52%)

O/U: 17-10 (63%)

Overall: 31-23 (57%)
