Milwaukee is on a mission to advance to the NBA Finals after coming up short the last few years, and the Bucks appear to be peaking at the right time by winning eight of their past 10 games, including 122-108 over the Heat on May 15, covering as a 4-point favorite. Jimmy Butler is questionable for Miami with a back injury, and he didn't play in the final regular-season game against Detroit. The Bucks are in revenge mode as they're facing the team that knocked them out of the playoffs in 2020. Milwaukee will be focused to get off to a good start defensively as it was just 6-23 this season after trailing by at least 10 points. Giannis Antetokounmpo leads the Bucks with 28.1 points per game while averaging only 33 minutes this season, and Khris Middleton added 20.4 points. Jrue Holiday averaged 17.7 points and 6.1 assists. Look for Milwaukee to be focused early on in this matchup. Play the Bucks ATS for a Max Play, and also play the first half UNDER.
