NBA Finals Game 1- Milwaukee at Phoenix

-
Milwaukee at Phoenix -4.5

Tonight is Game 1 of the NBA Finals between the Milwaukee Bucks and Phoenix Suns. The Bucks swept Miami in the first round exercising their bubble demons, survived a grueling 7 game series against Brooklyn, then finished Atlanta in 6 without Giannis (or Trae Young), and now enter the Finals for the first time since 1974 and look to win for the first time since '71. Phoenix beat the hobbled Lakers in 6 in round 1, swept the Jamal Murray-less Denver Nuggets, and beat the Kawhi-less but clutch Paul George Clippers in 6. Now we have the classic old guy or young cat title. Although Devin Booker has been the leader of the Phoenix these Suns have taken Chris Paul's personality and hope to earn him a title. While the Bucks are following their 26-year-old 2-time MVP Giannis Antetokoumnpo to try and lead them to a title like Kareem before him. In this Game 1, I think we'll see a feeling out process, some stress from inexperienced players, and I'll trust the home team with the crowd to win. Phoenix win and cover Game 1.

Record
Straight: 55-31


Spread- 46-39-1

Wild Card Saturday

-
I'm still not celebrating the regular season until the playoffs are over. This is only for the two Saturday games for now. Indianapolis Colts at Houston Texans Even Vegas knows that this is the rubber match of the year. I'm taking Houston to win but Indy to cover the 2 points because these games are weird. Seattle Seahawks at Dallas Cowboys Seattle is too hot right now to lose to the Cowboys. Dallas is favored because they are at home and Vegas wants to be safe. But I'm trusting Pete Carroll and Russell Wilson to leave Texas with a victory.
