Milwaukee Bucks at Indiana Pacers Betting Preview

After a wild NBA trade deadline last week, teams are finally moving into where they belong in the standings and are settling in with who they got.
Two teams that did not make any moves were the Milwaukee Bucks and the Indiana Pacers. The Bucks are on pace for one of the most historic regular seasons we have seen in a while. The Pacers, on the other hand, were looking great but lately have been slipping.
These two will be going head to head Wednesday night when the Bucks visit the Pacers in Indiana.
The spread for this game has the Milwaukee Bucks favored by two, with -130 as their moneyline. It has the Pacers’ moneyline at +110.
Looking To Keep Rolling
We are witnessing one of the greatest regular seasons in NBA history with this Bucks roster. With Giannis Antetokounmpo at the helm, there is nothing that this team can’t do.
The Bucks play incredible defense and outscore their opponents by about 12 points per game. Giannis has come into form and actually looks like he is comfortable now shooting threes, which is a nightmare for opposing teams trying to defend him.
Milwaukee will encounter their old teammate, Malcolm Brogdon, in this game. When he left last year, it seemed like the end of their run, but they have replaced his production with Eric Bledsoe elevating his game and George Hill filling in.
This team is most definitely the favorite to come out of the Eastern Conference with all signs pointing to them making it to the Finals.
Is Oladipo Breaking The Pacers’ Chemistry?
Last year, Victor Oladipo rose up to the top as one of the league’s best players. He then suffered an ugly knee injury and finally made his return just a couple of weeks ago.
Since his return, the Pacers have looked out of whack, and everything that they had going for them seems not to be clicking in the same way.
Before his return, the Pacers legitimately looked like one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference but now have dropped their last six games.
I’m not sure if we are ready to call Oladipo the problem, but the team seemed to run smoother when Brogdon had complete control over the roster.
Luckily for Indiana, it can still trot out Domantas Sabonis every night. Sabonis is truly one of the league’s best players and was named to his first All-Star Game this year.
His game has gone to the next level this season, and that has been a welcome sight for Pacers fans everywhere.
Overall, I think this team has the potential to make some noise in the playoffs but has hit an unfortunate roadblock in its plan this season.
The Pacers have a lot to figure out if they want to stand a chance against the best team in the East.
Milwaukee Takes Care Of Business
The Bucks should be able to take care of business in this one, and the Pacers will continue on their losing streak. Take the Bucks at -2 to win this game.
