The Milwaukee Bucks are a young and growing talented team, and have reaped the rewards of late. The young Bucks are 7-1 in their last eight games, playing solid basketball right now. The problem is within this stretch they have beaten Chicago, Brooklyn, and New York on the road, and Phoenix, Brooklyn, and New York at home. The surge is more due to a soft stretch in the schedule, not a team that has elevated its play. Milwaukee was just a game over .500 until this easy schedule came about. Miami is three games over .500 and has dropped five straight. I think these team situations have flattened the line out considerably, and I see a few points of value in the direction of the Heat tonight. Take Miami.
