Understanding Public and Money
The Bulls and Bucks played each other less than two weeks ago in Chicago. In that game, Coby White posted 23 points, four rebounds and seven assists. Zach LaVine (foot) did not play in that matchup and remains sidelined Monday. The last four games without him, White recorded at least 33 combined points, rebounds and assists each time. The Bucks have played at the fifth-fastest pace and have the ninth-worst defensive rating in the league, so I expect White to be busy and hit this over.
These sides needed an OT to get "over" in their last meeting less than two weeks ago (November 30), but trendlines for both have continued the same way. For the Bucks, it's been a season-long thing in the wake of Mike Budenholzer's departure, and new HC Adrian Griffin not putting the same sort of emphasis on the stop end, where Milwaukee has consistently ranked low this season. That 120-113 Chicago success eleven nights ago is part of a four-game win streak Chicago took into the IST break, and part of a current 6-1 "over" run; for the Bucks, they're "over" 7-3 across their last ten inn their latest higher-scoring run.
