Chicago at Milwaukee

At 11-12, the Milwaukee Bucks face a strange upcoming schedule that features three home-and-home games vs. Chicago, Cleveland, and then Washington. The Bucks went through a nice stretch of eight games to finish 6-2, but have dropped three straight. Outside of that eight-game stretch, they are a woeful 5-10, so their record may be over stated here, as they may not be as good as a .500 team. The Bucks are a great three-point defender, but unfortunately that is not the Bulls game as they shoot 30.7% from deep. Instead, Chicago's game lies in the mid-range and the paint, something the Bucks have not defended as well. Play on Chicago.
