Point Spread: -3.50 | -105.00 Chicago (Away)
Result: Win
The Chicago Bulls have allowed Milwaukee to fight it's way back into this series, and the last thing they want to do is go back to Chicago for a Game 7. Give the Bucks full credit for extending this series as long as they have, but I think their runs comes to an end tonight.
Here are my keys to the game:
1. Previous History - The Bulls had won seven of eight versus the Bucks prior to Games 4 & 5, and two of those wins have come in Milwaukee. Going back several seasons the Bulls are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 visits to Milwaukee.
2. Situational/Motivational - Any complacency the Bulls experienced when they led this series 3-0 has disappeared, and we can expect Chicago to match the intensity and desperation of the Bucks tonight. Pau Gasol summed it up by saying: "We're going to have to play the next game like it's the last game, not think that if we lose this one, we still have a chance, that we can play at home in Game 7. That would be a terrible mistake."
3. X-Factor - Derrick Rose has not looked good in the last three games, but he should benefit from a couple of days rest ahead of tonight's game. Expect him to look more like the player he was in Games 1 & 2.
Selection: This is a play on the Chicago Bulls (10*)
