The Bulls need big games from DeRozan and Lavine which they got in game two, but I\u2019m not ready to buy in yet so I\u2019ll pass on the Bulls TT.<\/p>\n Team Total Prop: Bucks Over 112.5<\/strong><\/p>\n The Player Props is where this game gets interesting, and there are several that I like. I\u2019m all in on the advantage Milwaukee has inside, and I think they pound Lopez and Giannis.<\/p>\n The point total for Giannis is 34.5 tonight, and even though it\u2019s a huge total I like the over. He went for 33 points in game two, but only went 11-18 from the free throw line and 0-2 from threes.<\/p>\n He\u2019ll improve and go over tonight. I\u2019ll also take Vucevic over 11.5 rebounds as he\u2019s the only tall guy to rebound against Lopez and Giannis.<\/p>\n He had 17 and 13 in games one and two, he should go over 11.5 tonight. Finally, a sneaky prop I love is Alex Caruso over 1.5 steals. He has had two in both games in this series, and the Bucks won\u2019t have their second best ball handler in Middleton. It sets up for some errant passes which Caruso should take advantage of.<\/p>\n Player Prop Play: Giannis Over 34.5 Points or Alex Caruso Over 1.5 Steals<\/strong><\/p>\n Nikola Vucevic had 17 and 13 in two games and remains the Bulls only legit rebounding option inside. After a horrible shooting game in game one, DeRozan promised it wouldn\u2019t happen again and he responded with 41 in game two.<\/p>\n Without Middleton, there are a lot of shots available on the perimeter now and Jrue Holiday should be the benefactor. He\u2019s had 15 points in both games, but he hasn\u2019t shot well and had limited free throws. He\u2019ll have more tonight.<\/p>\n Caruso has had two steals in both games in this series, and the Bucks won\u2019t have their second best ball handler in Middleton. It sets up for some errant passes which Caruso should take advantage of.<\/p>\n Vucevic 8+ Rebounds<\/strong><\/p>\n DeMar DeRozan 25+ Points<\/strong><\/p>\n Jrue Holiday 15+ points<\/strong><\/p>\n Alex Caruso +1 Steal<\/strong><\/p>\n +109<\/strong><\/p>\n \n |
