10* EAST-CONF NON-DIV GAME OF MONTH: 14-5 NBA!
(NBA) Bucks (MIL) vs. Hawks (ATL),
Point Spread: -4.50 | -110.00 Bucks (MIL) (Away)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* EAST-CONFERENCE NON-DIVISION GOM on the Bucks.

I'm expecting Milwaukee to keep the foot on the gas from start to finish in this one and not only win, but do so in blowout fashion.

The Bucks are 27-22 after snapping a four-game slide with a 112-102 win at Charlotte. Milwaukee has lost five straight ATS now, but note that the Bucks are 7-2 ATS in their last nine after five or more ATS losses in a row.

Atlanta is 23-28 after a 126-125 home loss to San Antonio on Wednesday night. But with a three-game road trip starting on Saturday night in the Nation's capital, I say the home side not only has a letdown here, but also gets caught "looking ahead."

Lay the points, the play is MILWAUKEE.

Good luck, NP
