Preview

Cleveland Cavaliers will meet Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday in Cleveland, this will be the fourth game between them as the Cavaliers have won 2 of these 3 games with 1 win to the Milwaukee which was at home for the Bucks. All 3 games between them this season ended in an Under.

Milwaukee Bucks last played on Friday vs Detroit Pistons and won 131-101 that puts them on a 3 game winning streak now after they also beat the Bulls and the Celtics in last 3 games. Giannis, Lopez, Portis, Middleton and all doubtful for this game and me personally i think they won't play this games, also Grayson Allen and George Hill are both Out for this one. Bucks don't have much to lose in this game as they will now face the Nets most probably if they finish 2nd so a lose might put them in easier matchups in the first round.

Cleveland Cavaliers will be playing this game to win without a doubt as they can get the 7th seed from the Nets and they also can get back to 9th or 10th with a loss and depends on the Tie breaks with the Hornets and the Hawks. Cleveland are on a 3 game losing now after losing to the Nets, Magix and the Sixers. Jarett Allen, Dean Wade and Collin Sexton are still out for the Cavaliers in this game.

Head to Head

Milwaukee Bucks are definitely the better team here and they have dominated last 10 games with 8 wins and only 2 losses, ATS record is 6-4 in the favour of the Bucks, O/U is 4-6 to the under as the Bucks averaged 114.8 and the Cavaliers averaged 106.7 points a game.

Prediction

I expect that Milwaukee Bucks will rest a lot of starters in this game as it's not really important for them to win this game so they will rest players, Bucks are 2nd now and might have a first round clash with the Nets so a loss to get the 3rd place to face the Bulls will be better for them and on the other hand, Cavaliers need this win to keep 8th place or advance to 7th if Nets losses. I like the home favourite that need the win more here give me the Cavaliers to win and cover.

Pick: Cavaliers -6.5 (-110)
