NBA - Dallas Mavericks vs Milwaukee Bucks Basketball betting preview

Today the Milwaukee Bucks will host the Dallas Mavericks. The Bucks are coming into this one as the underdog. My pick for this one is the Dallas Mavericks.

Analysis : The Mavericks are having a very good start to this early season as expected. They possess an offensive powerhouse. The Bucks are also looking fairly good. They possess a fairly strong offense with Michael Redd as their best player. I feel that the way The Mavericks are going to match up with the Bucks is going to result in Dallas out rebounding and out shooting the opposition. Dallas is a very big team and I dont think that the Bucks are going to be able to keep up with them. This game will be one of the biggest tests for the Bucks defense so far.

Mavericks Last game:

The Mavericks resulted in a 4 point loss to Indiana. Despite their loss the Mavericks team as a whole player very well offensively. The Mavericks shared the ball well in their last game. Nowitzki had 20 points 11 rebounds and 5 assists. Harris put up above his average points with 24 points.

FIELD GOAL % FOR: 46.9 Ranked 6th

Injuries:

Eric Dampier C Day-to-Day (sore shoulder)

Devean George F Out Indefinitely (foot injury)

Eddie Jones G Out Indefinitely (leg injury)

The Mavericks are missing some valuable players but have proved to be highly effective on both ends of the court without them.

Rest:

The Mavericks will be coming into this game on 1 game rest. Luckily for the Mavericks they have so many players that can be highly effective on both ends of the court despite being on little rest.

The Bucks are coming off a win against the Lakers. They trailed most of the game but rallied in the 4th quarter to take the lead and eventually win.

Bucks Stats :

In order for the Bucks to win their game against they are going to have to dramatically improve on the defensive end of the court.

Injuries:

Michael Ruffin F Out Indefinitely (broken wrist)

The Bucks are fortunate to have no major injuries

Rest:

The Bucks are coming into this game on 2 days rest.

Mavericks / Bucks previous meeting results:

In the Bucks / Mavericks last meeting , Dallas won 105-103. However I dont think their game today will be as close.

Final analysis :

The Mavericks have an average road record and the Bucks have a good home record. I dont feel that this fact is going to be relevant tonight. I feel that despite home court advantage The Mavericks are still going to dominate this game on both ends of the court.
