Stephen Nover's MLK Double Dime Dominator
(NBA) Toronto vs. Milwaukee, 01/19/2015 3:00 PM, Score: 92 - 89
Money Line: -117.00 Toronto (Away)
Result: Win
Taking to the road after six straight home games might be the best thing for the Raptors especially since they are taking on the Bucks.




Toronto may have been playing over its head during the early stages of the season, but the Raptors aren't as bad as they've been lately losing seven of their last nine. This is a circle-the-wagons type of matchup for the Raptors after losing 95-93 at home on Sunday to New Orleans, who were missing Anthony Davis and Jrue Holiday.




The Raptors have owned the Bucks winning the past five in the series. This includes a 124-82 home win against Milwaukee on Nov. 21. That was the Bucks' worst loss of the season.




The Bucks weren't suffering from jet lag either during that defeat like they could be here having played their last game in London this past Thursday against the hopeless Knicks. Toronto played early on Sunday and is 6-1 ATS the last seven times when playing without rest.




This will be DeMar DeRozan's fourth game back from a torn abductor. So the adjustment period should be over. DeRozan and Kyle Lowery give Toronto the two best players on the court.




Milwaukee's one-time deep bench has been weakened by injuries to Jabari Parker and Kendall Marshall, both out for the season, and by the suspension to center Larry Sanders, its best shot-blocker.
