AMEDEUS' NBA HARDCOURT HAMMER!
(NBA) Bucks (MIL) vs. 76ers (PHI),
Point Spread: -3.50 | -110.00 Bucks (MIL) (Away)
Result: Win
The Bucks are coming into this game after a season which they finished as the number 3 seed in the Eastern Conference, but injuries derailed them in the playoffs and they had an early exit. It is a new season now and they will be hungry to get off to a strong start on the road, especially since they are playing against a very banged up team. They are going up against a 76ers team that was one of the better teams in the NBA to start last season, but an injury to Embiid derailed their season as they ended up barely making the playoffs in 7th place and were eliminated by the Knicks in the 1st round. The injury bug is back for the 76ers to start this season as well as they are going to be without Joel Embiid in this game as well as their new addition Paul George. The Bucks are missing Khris Middleton in this game, but the rest of their starters are ready to go so they are at a big advantage in this game. The Bucks dominated the 76ers last season as they won all 3 meetings against them and only 1 of those wins was by less than 4 points, the game they played at the start of the season when the 76ers were actually healthy. The last 2 meetings were both wins for the Bucks by 9+ points and this is going to be another game that the Bucks dominate in and start the season on the right foot. The Bucks will cover the spread in this game.
