1.88Tip and bets
Washington did not live up to the fans' expectations at the start of the season. Everyone was hoping for a more confident start, but the Wizards are moving towards another anti-record. Milwaukee started the championship very badly, but then managed to correct the situation. Rivers' team, with the noisy support of its fans, will have to achieve a convincing victory over one of the main outsiders of the tournament.
Our prediction is a Milwaukee victory with a handicap of (-14.5) points, taking into account overtime at 1.75
Bet on individual total
Milwaukee will put its best lineup on the court. With all the leaders on the court, the team from Wisconsin has not shown very high efficiency this season. The average score is 112.1. And in home games it is noticeably higher - 116.6. But this time Rivers' charges will be able to load the basket of a not very strong opponent.
Our prediction is Milwaukee individual total is over 125.5 points including overtime at 2.06
Bet on the first half
Milwaukee basketball players will start the game with Washington in a good mood after a successful trip to Florida. There is no doubt that the Bucks will try to achieve victory in order to build on their success in front of their fans. The players from the Badger State team will show who is the boss on the court from the first minutes of the match and seize the initiative.
Our prediction is Milwaukee win in the first half of the game at 1.21
