3* - Milwaukee Bucks (+5?)
I will continue to fade the Bulls on the road where they are 4-13 ATS, scoring 98.6 points and giving up 101.7 points per game which is coincidentally, exactly what Milwaukee is averaging at home while only allowing 98.6 points. Chicago travels today after playing very well in a home court win over the Spurs on Monday but I really like the way that Boykins has quickly adjusted in Milwaukee since coming over from Denver last week. He had 30 points and four assists in the Bucks 99-91 win at Charlotte two days ago with Bogut adding 27 points. Bogut has posted double-doubles in his last three games, averaging 21.3 points and 17.7 rebounds while shooting 65.9 percent. Not saying that the Bucks will win this one outright but I do recognize the fact that they have gone 15-1 at home against the Bulls since March 29, 1998.
