Joke of the Night?
Ok, Chicago went into Philly and beat that ass last night by 11 as a 6 point dog. Tonight they return home and face this same Philly team but started as a 3 point fav and now down to 2. I am assuming the whole world is on Chicago and line is dropping. Anyone else think this is a joke? Or was Philly really supposed to win last night? They definitely think Philly wins tonight, but I dont understand. Chicago is 5-2 at home and Philly is 2-6 on the road.

bulls really only had one good quarter (the 3rd) where they outscored philly 31-11 or something close to that.

i personally see no edge one way or the other. rare for me since i almost always have an opinion on the bulls.

You are right on the ball. However, could this line be an oddmakers' trap, in a sense, for the smarter bettors who actually detect such things?????
I won't give Vegas that much credit for this particular game at least.
Low line on purpose attracting action on Bulls

All indicators regarding this line say please everyone put money on the Bulls, I mean please take the Bulls. I'm on the Sixers who I think win this outright.
