This is a classic example of David vs. Goliath, one in which the general public likes to dig in on. They certainly have staked their claim for this one with 2/3 siding with Houston. It is a hard pill to swallow when looking at Milwaukee's painful 7-31 record, and just 4-16 road mark to pull the trigger on them. Motivation is often the key ingredient. After a game with Oklahoma City, this is surely anticlimactic for the Rockets who are just 1-3 ATS in their last four as double-digit chalk. The Rockets have not showed inspired play vs. a team below .400 where they are just 1-5 ATS in their last six, and the Bucks have cashed four of their last five here. As ugly as it looks, make the play on Milwaukee.
