The Lakers have managed to hold their own against other bad teams. But LA has only six wins all season against opponents that have a winning record. That doesn't bode especially well for them this evening. Milwaukee has been a pleasant surprise and if a very athletic team. When Jabari Parker went down for the season with a knee injury, the consensus opinion seemed to be that the Bucks would struggle and end up on the wrong side of .500 once again. That's evidently not going to be the case as Milwaukee is still a very respectable 32-25 and in possession of the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference. The Bucks have done a great job of handling teams at their own level or below. Milwaukee has lost just six times to teams with current losing records. That indicates they're rock solid when it comes to taking care of business against the teams they're supposed to defeat. The Bucks are 20-7 ATS in their last 27 away matchups and have a winning road record. Look fort he Bucks to win by double digits over the Lakers here on Friday night.
