The Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Clippers meet for the second time, but there won't be many familiar faces. Chicago won on Jan. 20 and dealt away players that combined for 78 points in that game. The Clippers traded away 39 points of production.
The makeover served the Clippers well. L.A. is on a hot streak, while Chicago has gone in the other direction.
That trend line should continue, as my Bulls vs. Clippers predictions and NBA picks see the Clips covering.
