BEST BETS

HARPER: Warriors (-6.5) at Bulls: The Bulls are banged up right now and the Warriors found a groove against the Cavs. If I’m only laying two Steph Curry possessions against the Bulls, I’ll take that every time.

HERBERT: Warriors (-6.5) at Bulls: I expect to see the team that embarrassed the Cavaliers, not the team that was embarrassed by the Pistons. That spread seems awfully small to me.

PANDIAN: Cavs (-12.5) at Nets: This is a huge line but after getting dominated by the Warriors, the Nets are the perfect antidote for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Steph is ready for the Bulls. (USATSI)
