Our Chicago Bulls vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction
The Blazers have shown signs of improvement lately but they are still failing to get the results, which sees them sat second-bottom in the Western Conference and unlikely to make the playoffs. The Bulls, on the other hand, are still right in the mix for the playoff places, and these are the types of games they need to capitalize on. This should be an entertaining watch but our Chicago Bulls vs Portland Trail Blazers prediction: Chicago Bulls to win the match.
