Cleveland Cavaliers at Milwaukee Bucks Pick
The match-up is one that bills the present versus the future as the game’s greatest player today LeBron James will square off with the superstar of tomorrow, the “Greek Freak” Giannis Antetkuonmpo. Despite all of the impeccable performances Cleveland has curated as of recent combined with Milwaukee’s recent losing streak, this market opened as a pick-em. This speaks volumes to us because under most other circumstances we would actually have seen Milwaukee priced as a favorite out of the gate but the variables predicated otherwise. Cleveland’s stock is through the ceiling whilst the Bucks is in a trough. Nevertheless, the fact remains that Milwaukee plays a different blend of basketball at home and are never an easy out in the Bradley Center. Though Cleveland is the better team on paper and in superior form, the market has made it clear that this fixture is set up to be a bump in the road for King James and his merry men. We’ll go ahead and take Milwaukee outright with the upset.
