NBA Playoff Odds: Chicago at Boston

One more overtime thriller has the Chicago Bulls and Boston Celtics headed for a Game 7. Seems only fitting for this series.

Derrick Rose scored 28 points and blocked Rajon Rondo’s potential game-winner and the Bulls beat the defending champions 128-127 in triple overtime Thursday night to even the first-round series.

Ray Allen scored a career playoff-high 51 points for the Celtics, but it’s back to Boston for Game 7 on Saturday night.

Three of the first five games went to overtime, including a Game 4 that went two extra periods.
The Bulls are 3-5 all-time in seventh games, but are 0-5 on the road.

The over is 7-1 in the last eight meetings and you have to expect that trend to continue.

If the Bulls can manage a win, they’ll head straight to Orlando and open the second round on Monday.
