Milwaukee Bucks at Philadelphia 76ers Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
Both teams enter off losing streaks. For the Bucks, the streak currently sits at three while for the Sixers their skid has evolved to five games. While for Philadelphia they have no need to concern themselves, Milwaukee undoubtedly needs to get its act together. Currently, the Deers sit as the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference for the NBA Playoffs but they can fall out of the playoff picture altogether if they lose out and Miami wins out. Philadelphia has been eliminated from contention for quite some time. Milwaukee’s traditionally top-ten ranked scoring defense has been exposed, as the Bucks have surrendered 107.6 points per game in their previous three losses. Philadelphia gave up as much as 141 points in a game where they finished as a two-point home dog to the East’s worst team the Brooklyn Nets on April 4th.

Milwaukee Bucks at Philadelphia 76ers Prediction
Given the fact both teams enter on losing streaks, it is very difficult to trust Milwaukee in particular spotting this volume of points when they are away from home. The popular opinion here is that Milwaukee needs to win this game while Philadelphia is assuredly in tank mode given the fact their post-season prospects have long since been put to rest. However, the need to win angle has been on many occasions a bankroll crusher. While the Bucks may win this game, they may assuredly be spotting too much lumber here to compel takers to buy some stock in Philly since not many want any part of them. The Sixers are generally quite dangerous when they are off the radar like they are in this scenario. Thus, the 76ers are often a great choice to fade any team with when it is highly likely that they are taking back more points than required to foster a cover.

Take Philadelphia +6.5
