Today’s best bet: Los Angeles Clippers (+5) over CHICAGO BULLS
After a sorry start to the season, the Clippers, boosted by the addition of Zach Randolph, have pulled it together lately by winning three straight road games at Houston, Portland and Oklahoma City. They’ll try to make it four in a row tonight at Chicago, where L.A. has won four straight and seven of eight. The Bulls lost at Charlotte on Tuesday in overtime.
