Milwaukee at Toronto

Milwaukee is a .500 road team and the Bucks are 2-5 ATS in their last seven after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game. That previous game was at home, a loss Friday at Detroit, 103-87, as -5.5-point favorite. This team is 2-5 straight-up, 3-4 ATS in their last seven contests, and is on its second coach, with interim coach Jim Boylan getting his first loss the last game, so there are chemistry issues. "They kind of wanted it more than us," said one player, and that was against a Pistons team that is now 4-14 on the road! Meanwhile Toronto has a winning record at home and has been on a tear at 10-3 straight-up, 9-4 ATS the last 13 games overall, and winning five times straight-up as a dog. This is the sixth straight home game for Toronto, off easy wins over the 76ers (90-72) and Bobcats (99-78). The Raptors are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 home games and 8-1 ATS against the Eastern Conference. When these teams meet, the favorite is 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings. Play the Raptors.
