Keep on riding this run. Milwaukee has now won 14 straight games regardless of who they have on the court. Giannis sat out of a road game against a healthy Suns team in their last game and they won 104-101. He’s probable tonight and fresh coming off 3 days rest. The Bucks are 6-2 ATS L8 overall and 6-0 L6 road games. The Nets are just 3-7 SU L10 overall and 7-15 ATS L22 home games vs teams with a winning record. MIL is 7-3 ATS L10 meetings with BKN and 20-7 L27 trips to Brooklyn. Now the Nets did smack these Bucks 118-100 at home in late December, but that was a Nets team with Durant, Kyrie, and Ben Simmons. None of them will take the floor for BKN tonight. It was also a Bucks team without Middleton, the man who sparked their 14-game win streak. There’s usually concern of a “let down spot” when Great teams hit the road against inferior teams, but I wouldn’t worry about that. Milwaukee is neck and neck with the Celtics for the #1 overall seed in the East and that beatdown Giannis took by the Nets a couple months ago will provide a little extra motivation. The Nets have a -15.7 Net Rating (29th) in the last two weeks compared to the Bucks +15.1 (2nd). 15 straight and the cover tonight.
