Clippers vs Bulls Game Preview and Analysis
I see this game coming down to pace and shot quality. The Clippers are on the second night of a back-to-back, but they just won in Washington despite shooting 5-of-28 from three. That tells me this team can still win without relying on hot shooting, especially when James Harden is getting to the line.
Chicago is coming off a strong home win over Brooklyn where Coby White knocked down seven threes and the Bulls built a big early lead. What matters to me is that no one played more than 31 minutes, which keeps this group fairly fresh.
Still, both teams are trending slower. Chicago has dialed back the pace significantly compared to the start of the season, and the Clippers are one of the slowest teams in the league by design. That combination makes it hard for this game to turn into a shootout, even if both offenses are capable.
