The two teams have met once this season, with the Rockets securing a dominant 143-107 road victory over the Bulls, winning by 36 points. This time around, the Rockets have a full roster, while the Bulls have strong offense but weak defense, making it likely to be a high-scoring, back-and-forth game. The Rockets are significantly stronger than their opponent, and we expect the total score to exceed 232.5 points.

Pick: Total points over 232.5 (bet365)
