Aside from hiring Fred Hoiberg, it has been a quiet off-season for the Chicago Bulls. Some may think it’s good to bring back the same roster which has a strong built foundation, others wish the Bulls made major trades to target the big fish. However, through hard work and statistical data, Las Vegas has the Bulls coasting to the Eastern Conference Finals matching up with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Sure, no gambler would put their money down for the Bulls to win the championship if they want to win. However, it seems every single championship odds list that comes out of Vegas has only the Bulls and Cavaliers in the championship conversation from the eastern conference teams. Who knows, Lebron might be too fatigued to make it to his sixth straight Finals. But that’s a conversation for another day.
