For Friday, Top-Rated 1000♦ is the Milwaukee Bucks at home over the Indiana Pacers. At 9:00 am eastern, the Bucks are -3 1/2 points in Vegas and offshore.
Both teams were winners on Wednesday night, as the Pacers demolished the Grizzlies, 111-83, while the Bucks held on for the 113-112 win at Charlotte.
Milwaukee was up double-digits for most of that game, but allowed the Hornets to sneak inside of the back-door as the small home dog. Don't count on that happening tonight in their home opener against a Pacers team they owe a little payback to.
Indiana won the final 3 series meetings last year over Milwaukee, including a 103-96 win in early March on the Bucks home floor. That has got to change this year if Milwaukee wants to be considered one of the "elite" teams in the Eastern Conference.
It is Mike Budenholzer's first year at the helm with this healthy and talented Milwaukee club, and while "Coach Bud's" tenure in Atlanta did not conclude well, the man does know how to coach.
Tonight in front of the home crowd the Bucks put the pieces together for the comfortable home "W" over the Pacers.
