Opening Line Trend

Opening in the 6 to 7.5 range has tended to be good for the favorites.  Here we detect a significant overlay of between 3.5 and 5.5 points.

Recent Head to Head

The Cavaliers have performed exceptionally well versus the Bucks, winning six of the last nine.

The last four games were played in Cleveland and the prior two were in Milwaukee.  The Bucks dismantled Cleveland in both of those home games.

Recent Performance

Cleveland has won its last eight games.

Milwaukee has won five of their last six games.

But there is turmoil in Milwaukee as that team just fired their head coach, Adrian Griffin, after having achieved a 30-13 record with the team.  Griffin just wasn't clicking with players and ultimately lost the locker room.  

The Bucks are now seeking out the likes of Doc Rivers, Jeff Van Gundy and Nate McMillan.

There will be revenge on the mind of these Bucks who look towards a bright future with a new head coach.
