Expert Analysis and Free Pick

The Wizards and Bucks can both put points on the board and neither plays much defense at all, but I believe the best pick for this contest is to play the Under 210 total points. Milwaukee and Washington have played Over 210 total points just twice in their last seven meetings and average a combined 201. points per game while allowing a combined 108.4 points per contest defensively. 54 percent of the betting public likes the Over, but I’m going with the 46 percent of bettors that like the Under. The Under is 6-0 in Milwaukee’s last six games following a straight up win and 4-1 in their last five games after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game. My Final Score prediction is Milwaukee 102 Washington 100
