While I'm hot, I would also like to ride with the team that is hot right now, and that is the Bucks, they are dominating their opponent
and though this game is another road game for the Bucks, I think they can still get this done easily.
Dallas Mavericks has no improvement so far as KP is still recovering, the current line up is weaker compared to the line up prior to the trade.
Their lack of presence inside is going to be their weakness and bucks will take advantage on that.
Pick - Bucks -8
We have different views about the Mavericks. Their current lineup has no changed at all (prior to trade in terms of firepower). But honestly the trade happened is better to the and I see the current lineup is good compared to last (DSJ is showing some inconsistency this season maybe because of Luka). I exclude KP in the analysis because he still not playing.
But Im agree with your pick for -8 for Bucks. Surely they can cover it with higher chances. Remember how Bucks showed an impressive performance against the Wizards and continue their winning streak.
Additional pick: Under 222 @1.9
Notable notes: Middleton and newly acquired, Nikola Mirotic will not play on this game.
