Bulls at Spurs NBA Picks: The San Antonio Spurs will try to achieve their best 10-game start in franchise history Wednesday night (9:30 PM ET, ESPN) when they welcome the NBA Central Division leaders, Chicago Bulls into AT&T Center in San Antonio. Most offshore sportsbooks list the Spurs as 7-chalk favorites in this game with a betting total of 204 1/2. Today's line is provided by Sportsbook.com.

Early betting trends show 69 percent of wagers playing the Bulls getting 7-points as road underdogs while 98 percent are risking Chicago on the moneyline. On the combined betting total, betting action is at 54 percent, the game total falls UNDER 204 1/2.

San Antonio is 8-1 for the first time since 2004-05, when it went on to win the third of its four NBA championships. With another victory Wednesday, the Spurs would match their starts from 1980 and 1981. Each time they've opened 8-1 or better, they have finished the season atop their division.

All the NBA's BEST LINES are available here from the best sportsbooks on the internet.

The Bulls (6-3) kicked off their seven-game road trip with a 95-92 win at Houston on Tuesday night. They put on an impressive long-distance shooting display of their own, connecting on 8 of 12 3-pointers to win their first game away from home in three tries this season.

Chicago is riding a wave of momentum, winning four straight SU, and coming off a 95-92 road victory over the Rockets in Houston last night. The Bulls have probably been overlined ATS as their cover rate isn't nearly as good as their SU winning percentage. Since Nov. 1, the Bulls have covered every other game through seven games. If this trend is to continue they lose SU and ATS.

The Spurs have won seven in a row SU and have covered the point-spread in two straight games. Overall, after nine games, the Spurs have covered ATS in five with three losses and one push.

NBA Pick: Take the home team Spurs in this one tonight both SU and -7 ATS.
