We like this matchup for the Bucks tonight for a few reasons. First, there is no denying that the Nets have an elite offense with Durant and Irving healthy. However, on the defensive side of the ball, this team is a mess. This was a very poor defensive team last season that lacked size in the paint. The addition of Ben Simmons does not look to be the answer to the Nets defensive woes. Simply put, this is a bad matchup against a Bucks team that plays physical and likes to score inside. The Bucks have the best defensive rating in the NBA (99.5). They also get a ton of fast break points (2nd in the NBA), which is a metric that the Nets struggle to defend. We will lay the 3.5 points with the Bucks behind their home crowd. Our bet is one unit.
