The Nets won their 7th straight game in dominant fashion 143-113 over the Golden State Warriors.<\/p>\n<p>The Bucks are coming off a 114-106 in Cleveland against the Cavs on Wednesday night. This is the second of four regular season meetings between these teams, Milwaukee prevailed 110-99 on October 26th. Tip-off is slated for 7:30 PM EST\/4:30 PST on NBATV.<\/p>\n<h3>Bucks Bounce Back?<\/h3>\n<p>The Milwaukee Bucks sit at first place in the Eastern Conference at 22-9 despite losing to the Cavs on Wednesday night. Giannis Antetokounmpo led all scorers with 45 points to go along with 14 rebounds and four assists.<\/p>\n<p>Brook Lopez chipped in with 14 points and 6 rebounds while Jrue Holiday added 9 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists. Milwaukee had a huge rebounding advantage at 46-37 but lost the turnover battle 21-10.<\/p>\n<p>The Bucks are below average in scoring at 17th with only 112.9 points per game. They rely heavily on a defense that ranks 4th with 108.9 points allowed per game. Khris Middleton is listed as doubtful for this contest due to a knee injury while Giannis Antetokounmpo is probable with knee soreness.<\/p>\n<h3>Seven Game Win Streak For Nets<\/h3>\n<p>The Brooklyn Nets have won seven straight games after beating Golden State on Wednesday. Kevin Durant led the Nets in scoring with 23 points to go along with 7 rebounds and 5 assists. Ben Simmons had a solid game all around with 10 points, 8 assists and 4 rebounds.<\/p>\n<p>The Nets shooting was otherworldly as they shot 64.3% from the floor and 63.6% from beyond the arc as a team. Brooklyn is middle of the pack on the season in scoring at 15th with 114 points per game.<\/p>\n<p>They sit at 10th in defensive scoring with 111.5 points allowed per game. The only player listed on the Brooklyn injury report is Yuta Watanabe who is questionable with right hamstring tightness.<\/p>\n<h2>Brooklyn Nets vs Milwaukee Bucks Single Game Parlay<\/h2>\n<div>\n<p>The Brooklyn Nets are 3.5 point home favorites with a total set at 225.5. This is an elite matchup between two teams who figure to battle for a spot in the Eastern Conference Finals.<\/p>\n<p>This is a big game with a tight spread, so the stars should shine and we should avoid a blowout. It&#8217;s been a while since we did a same game parlay, so I&#8217;m going wrap up the three biggest scorers into one tonight.<\/p>\n<p>Giannis Antetokounmpo has scored 25 points or more in 22 of 26 games this season for a 85% success rate. Durant and Irving have shared the court 22 times this season and Durant scored 25+ in 18 of those games while Irving scored 20+ 19 of those games.<\/p>\n<p>The Bucks control the paint which opens up outside opportunities for Irving and Durant. All three players cleared their respective point total in the last four games they shared the court. Put all three together for +100 odds!!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Same Game Parlay:<\/strong><br \/><strong>Giannis Antetokounmpo 25+ Points<\/strong><br \/><strong>Kevin Durant 25+ Points <\/strong><br \/><strong>Kyrie Irving 20+ Points <\/strong><br \/><strong>+100 Draftkings<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes border-style-solid padding: 6px;\"><table class=\"has-text-color has-background has-fixed-layout\" style=\"background-color:#ffa04b;color:#2e3192\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><\/th><th><\/th><th><\/th><th><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Sportsbook<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Welcome Bonus<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>States Available<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Get Your Bonus<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">1.

That interest in motor sports turned into a desire to make money off the sport through fantasy contests and sports betting. Like most, he took his lumps when he first got started, but now he is one of the most respected NASCAR bettors in the industry. Andy has expanded that sports betting experience to become profitable in a number of other sports, transforming this interest from a side hobby to a major source of income.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1848 size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/basketba-300x151.png\" alt=\"NBA Basketballs\" width=\"300\" height=\"151\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/basketba-300x151.png 300w, https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/basketba-768x387.png 768w, https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/basketba.png 999w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Looking for more free sports picks and sports betting tips?<\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>Latest Betting Odds and Public Action<\/strong><strong>: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wt.buzz\/odds\" data-schema-attribute=\"\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vegas lines<\/a> updated in real time, including who the public is betting on. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Last Minute Handicapping Advice<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">: Check out our extensive library of <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 12pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/sports-betting-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">handicapping tips<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> and advice from professional Vegas handicappers (we also recommend taking the time to look over our <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 12pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/videos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sports betting tips video library<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Want an expert opinion?<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> Check out the latest <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 12pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsmemo.com\/free-sports-picks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"dofollow noopener\">Free Sports Picks<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> and <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 12pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/picks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Best Bets<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> from our team of expert sports handicappers.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>Make sure to bookmark all the above!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brooklyn Nets vs Milwaukee Bucks Betting Preview WagerTalk NBA handicapper Andy Lang offers his predictions and player props for tonight&#8217;s Brooklyn Nets vs Milwaukee Bucks showdown from Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

The only player listed on the Brooklyn injury report is Yuta Watanabe who is questionable with right hamstring tightness.<\/p>\n<h2>Brooklyn Nets vs Milwaukee Bucks Single Game Parlay<\/h2>\n<div>\n<p>The Brooklyn Nets are 3.5 point home favorites with a total set at 225.5. This is an elite matchup between two teams who figure to battle for a spot in the Eastern Conference Finals.<\/p>\n<p>This is a big game with a tight spread, so the stars should shine and we should avoid a blowout. It's been a while since we did a same game parlay, so I'm going wrap up the three biggest scorers into one tonight.<\/p>\n<p>Giannis Antetokounmpo has scored 25 points or more in 22 of 26 games this season for a 85% success rate. Durant and Irving have shared the court 22 times this season and Durant scored 25+ in 18 of those games while Irving scored 20+ 19 of those games.<\/p>\n<p>The Bucks control the paint which opens up outside opportunities for Irving and Durant. All three players cleared their respective point total in the last four games they shared the court. Put all three together for +100 odds!!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Same Game Parlay:<\/strong><br \/><strong>Giannis Antetokounmpo 25+ Points<\/strong><br \/><strong>Kevin Durant 25+ Points <\/strong><br \/><strong>Kyrie Irving 20+ Points <\/strong><br \/><strong>+100 Draftkings<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3>NBA Tip-Off Show | December 23<\/h3>\n<p>Join Joe Raineri and a rotating panel of professional handicappers for the NBA Tip-Off Show as we preview tonight's NBA card from a betting perspective.

That interest in motor sports turned into a desire to make money off the sport through fantasy contests and sports betting. Like most, he took his lumps when he first got started, but now he is one of the most respected NASCAR bettors in the industry. Andy has expanded that sports betting experience to become profitable in a number of other sports, transforming this interest from a side hobby to a major source of income.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"wp-image-1848 size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/basketba-300x151.png\" alt=\"NBA Basketballs\" width=\"300\" height=\"151\" \/><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Looking for more free sports picks and sports betting tips?<\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>Latest Betting Odds and Public Action<\/strong><strong>: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wt.buzz\/odds\" data-schema-attribute=\"\">Vegas lines<\/a> updated in real time, including who the public is betting on. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Last Minute Handicapping Advice<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">: Check out our extensive library of <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 12pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/sports-betting-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">handicapping tips<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> and advice from professional Vegas handicappers (we also recommend taking the time to look over our <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 12pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/videos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sports betting tips video library<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Want an expert opinion?<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> Check out the latest <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 12pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsmemo.com\/free-sports-picks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"dofollow noopener\">Free Sports Picks<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> and <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 12pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/picks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Best Bets<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> from our team of expert sports handicappers.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>Make sure to bookmark all the above!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14448","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14448"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14448\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3825"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14448"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14448"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14448"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
