Milwaukee at Washington

The Milwaukee Bucks made a big move in the off-season when they acquired Damien Lillard from Portland. It was supposed to finally put them over the top. The Bucks are a solid 9-4 on the season, but they have been installed with high expectations and have only managed to cover five games on the season. Washington is not a team that is going to stimulate the Bucks "A" game. It will be the 3rd game in four nights for the Bucks, and against a poor opponent I can see them easily just playing on cruise control without a great deal of energy. Washington is a train wreck and has won just one game in their last 10, but the Wizards have covered two of their last three as a dog of 8.5 or more points. I will go with Washington.
