This is the first road game for Miami and they will be without small forward Jimmy Butler, power forward James Johnson and shooting guard Dion Waiters. Johnson reported to training camp out of shape and the Heat coaches still are not convinced his conditioning is up to standards. Miami is 9-21 ATS after a win by 10 points or more. The Milwaukee Bucks are loaded with talent, off a 60-win campaign. Milwaukee is off a 117-111 victory at Houston, so this is their home opener. The Bucks are 37-17-2 ATS against the Eastern Conference, as well as 12-3-1 ATS when following a spread cover. Milwaukee has a big rebounding edge up front with Brook Lopez and MVP Giannis Antetokounmp and they've won three in a row over Miami by an average of 27.3 points. Take Milwaukee.
