AMEDEUS' NBA HARDCOURT HAMMER!
(NBA) Thunder (OKC) vs. Bucks (MIL),
Point Spread: 5.50 | -110.00 Bucks (MIL) (Home)
Result: Loss
The Thunder are coming into this game with a 55-12 record this season and they have been playing very well in their recent games. They have won their last 2 straight as well as 9 of their last 10 games with some quality wins in that span, but they are coming off of a much closer game in their last one. They beat the Pistons on the road 113-107, but they had a much bigger lead in that game and blew it once they lost Lu Dort to an injury. Now the Thunder are going to be missing 3 key pieces in the lineup here, and they are not in a good spot as they are on a B2B with both games being on the road so travel is a factor here. They are going up against a Bucks team that is 38-28 this season and they have been playing well in their recent games. They have won their last 2 straight games now with quality wins against the Lakers and the Pacers. They got their revenge on the Pacers from a loss the other night, beating the Pacers 126-119 at home on Saturday night, and the Bucks will also be on a B2B here, but they played both games at home so they have a bit of an advantage here. The Bucks have been much better at home this season at 24-11 and they have won their last 2 straight as well as 6 of their last 8 games there. The Bucks are also coming into this game healthy and even though they are on a B2B, the Thunder are too and the Bucks will get up for one of the better teams in the league here. The Bucks will cover the spread in this game.
