The simple fact is that this Minnesota team is not going to win a lot of games this season. They are going to be catching a lot of points in the process, often times putting them on the valued sides of games. Milwaukee has been in and out all season, and while they are an improved team, they are not there yet, and will be up and down. Right now the offense is not clicking. After 13 of 15 games hitting the 100-point mark, the Bucks have done so in just one of their last seven. That certainly helps keep the door open for a Minnesota team that has covered five of their last six as a dog, and topped the 100-point mark in three of their last four games. The Bucks' inconsistent play has left them at 7-21 ATS in their last 28 following a win of 10 points or more. This is an overlay, so back Minnesota.
