Easy, easy featured winner last night with Dallas flexing their muscles and defense holding down the home floor over Phoenix. Frankly easier than I expected. Tonight I am backing the Bucks to seal the fate of the Celtics. A Boston team that has absolutely nobody to blame but themsleves. When you are at home and blow a 14 point lead in the final quarter that is a kick in the nuts. Just is. From where I see it the Celtics are just not strong enough down in the post and it is costing them. The momentum is on the defending champs side here clearly. Boston is still too good and defends too well to go down without a scrap. I do not expect a win with zero drama like the Grizzlies last time out or the Mavericks Thursday night. Be nice but I am a realist. Giannis is looking like a man on a mission and without a true rim protector he will continue to flourish down in the paint. I suspect the Celtics will be a trendy pick for many as they day wears on. Be a lot of sheep following the herd. I say no, Milwaukee at home off that last rally in Boston should feed off the home crowd energy and get us the dough.
I know, it gets boring. But this is one more game guys. It is not a game of the anything. It is a valid triple and play it as such. Hold your water. Just trying as always to keep it real. Many sincere thanks as always and best of luck to each of us. Enjoy the game and your weekend. Steve
