<h2>
Los Angeles Lakers at Chicago Bulls Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
<b>Los Angeles Lakers </b>

Most recently, the Lakers were in action on Friday against the visiting Boston Celtics and were subsequently defeated 120-107. The Lakers failed to cover in their fifth straight game closing as a 7.5-point underdog.
</p>
<p>
<b>Chicago Bulls </b>
</p>
<p>
The Bulls enter on a two-game losing skid suffering back-to-back losses against divisional rival Detroit on both Thursday and Saturday.

<h2>
Reasons To Avoid Los Angeles<br />
</h2>
<p>
The Lakers remain one of the worst free-throw shooting teams in the NBA on both sides of the court. When it comes to taking advantage of free points, the Lakers are the worst in the league (69%). On the flip side, opponents have hit a 29th-ranked 79.1% from the charity stripe against the Lakers. The combination of these two elements in a game forecasted to be settled by a point makes the Lakers a hazardous play given the fact they leave so many points on the table.
</p>
<h2>
Reasons To Back Chicago<br />
</h2>
<p>
In addition to the edge in the free-throw game, the Bulls own an advantage in the turnover department. Once again in a contest that is expected to be close, Chicago will get more opportunities it needs to produce the upset if it should even be classed as that.
