The Coach's 10* NBA Wednesday Night SLAUGHTERHOUSE
(NBA) Chicago vs. Charlotte,
Total: 192.50 | -110.00 Over
Result: Loss
The Chicago Bulls are coming off a loss in double OT last night versus Dallas, and they play their second game in as many nights on the road at Charlotte tonight. The Hornets are really struggling, and they only managed to score 75 points in a blowout loss to the Hawks on Saturday. I think we could see a slow paced, low scoring affair in Charlotte.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Derrick Rose - He logged 37 minutes in last night's game, the most of any game this season. He's missed eight games already this season, and it would seem probable that he could see reduced minutes here in a back-to-back situation.

2. Charlotte Offense - The Hornets have lost nine a row, and they've scored more than 100 points just once during that span. They are averaging just over 93 points per game, ranking 26th in the league in scoring.

3. X-Factor - These two teams have seen the total go under in all but one of the last 10 head to head meetings, and tonight's number is higher than it was in any of those previous contests.

Selection: This is a play on the Bulls@Hornets to go UNDER the total (10*)
