Our Chicago Bulls vs. Orlando Magic tips
| Bulls vs. Magic Tipp | Bulls vs. Magic Quote |
|---|---|
| Tipp 2 | 1,45 |
| Below 235.5 | 1,90 |
| D. Bane 20,5+ | 1,85 |
Tip 1: Do the Magic make it 2-1 in a direct duel?
- We think Orlando will have the upper hand here and are therefore betting on tip 2
- The last direct duel was only about a month ago and the Magic were able to hold their own with 125-120
- With White and Giddey, the Bulls’ two potentially best players are out and offensive production in particular should suffer as a result
- This is offered Away win for the Orlando Magic from the bookies to the odds of 1,45 (Quotes subject to change)
Tip 2: Not a nice game in Chicago?
- We are preparing for a less attractive basketball game and betting on less than XXXXXXX points
- With Giddey, the Bulls are missing their playmaker and without him the Bulls’ offense could quickly falter
- In addition, two of the best scorers, Wagner (Magic) and White (Bulls), are missing from this matchup and we don’t see who the offensive production will come from in order to exceed the set spread
- This is 235.5 points and to 1,90-Quote (Odds subject to change) we put the “under” here accordingly.
Tip 3: Desmond Bane with an important role in the team
- After a difficult start in Orlando, Desmond Bane is now showing consistently good performances, which is why we are relying on his points here
- In the last seven games he always scored at least 15 points, and in most cases he was able to clearly exceed the 20-point mark
- In the recent meeting between these two, Bane clearly led the scoring with an impressive 37 points
- In Wagner’s absence, he gets one of the most volumes on the team, which could also be due to the fact that Banchero doesn’t feel like he’s at 100% yet
- For the reasons mentioned, we therefore proceed 1,85-Quote (Quotes subject to change) to more than 20.5 points from Desmond Bane
