Milwaukee vs San Antonio Bets try to take advantage of some low-hanging fruit on Thursday night. Bovada online sportsbook starts us off once more with some early bets on the Thursday night contest from Texas. Now, can Milwaukee dominate San Antonio from the Frost Bank Center? Here we go with one of those matchups that tries to exploit a decided advantage.
Milwaukee vs San Antonio Bets is different in every sense of the word on Thursday. Now, let us be blunt. San Antonio plays poorly from a wins and losses standpoint. The Spurs remain the second-worst team in the NBA at 5-28, just a little better than the Detroit Pistons. Yes, the Pistons did really lose 28 games in a row. San Antonio has not gotten that far. The Spurs have dropped 26 of their past 28 decisions after starting the year at 3-2.
Now, the Bucks are a little ticked after a rough nine-point loss to Indiana earlier in the week. Milwaukee wound up 11 points below their season average of 124 points per game (2nd in the NBA). However, this is one of those teams that will give up points (119 a contest – 24th in the NBA). Alas, pace and offensive rating are both in the top five amongst all NBA teams. That is a good sign going into Thursday night in San Antonio.
Alright, Oklahoma City proved their worth on Tuesday night with a huge home win over Boston (127-123). Okay, can Milwaukee bounce back like Memphis did versus San Antonio? The thought process is a resounding yes. Consider, Giannis Antetokounmpo was incredible with 30-18-11 against Indiana but Damian Lillard shot a ghastly 3-for-16 from the field (13 points in all). The point guard missed eight of nine shots from beyond the arc too.
Betting on this game allows us to go a little south of sanity. Yes, it is not normal to go for a game that could be an absolute rout. Yes, this may go horribly wrong. However, by taking smaller wagers here, we are taking a shot that Milwaukee comes hammering back against a team too young to handle the pace of the Bucks. Expecting Milwaukee to triumph by double digits is hardly unreasonable on Thursday night.
Can we aim for the over in Oklahoma City? Milwaukee vs San Antonio bets bite on more NBA Game Prop Bets. Now, we prefer these props and that includes the over which stands at 249.5 in this contest. A huge reason why we like this is San Antonio will find more opportunities than usual while Milwaukee again wants to atone for what happened in Indiana.
So, Milwaukee comes in as a team who can easily score 125+ points on the road this Thursday night. Alright, what does their team prop look like for total points? Let’s see here. The Over at 129.5 points is at -120 but rolls in at -115 on BetUS. That is not horrible. Many think Milwaukee can even top 130 against a Spurs team that has yielded 130 or more points four times in the previous six games.
Even better for Milwaukee lies the fact that every time San Antonio tries to push the pace, their defense suffers. It is just that way with young teams. When this happens, it usually is the defense against top offensive squads.
So, that -115 number for the Team Over at 129.5 is good for the Milwaukee vs San Antonio Bets is solid. Now, one can take a swing at that Over of 249.5 for the two teams or maybe go a little further. They gave up 134 to Boston. The Team Over for Milwaukee at 131.5 just jumped up to +120. For bettors, it might be worth a shot.
Milwaukee vs San Antonio bets drop some other wagers. Naturally, the point races to 15 and 20 are pointless. That moneyline and even half and quarter moneyline are pretty much worthless. Looking at numbers in the -350 to -450 range just does have much value. However, taking Milwaukee and the Over at the same time rolls in at +135. Hey, sometimes getting plus money just has to come in strange ways.
Books tossed in some less than appealing player props early for Thursday. The prudent thing to do would be to wait a little. Yes, it is okay here to be patient. Antetokounmpo is going to have an outrageous number so maybe look at Lillard instead. He should atone for what was a disastrous effort versus the Pacers.
Yes, we hammered a lot of great picks on Tuesday. It has been a pretty good past several months here at VegasBetting. That is in large part a huge thanks to the readers. Naturally, it gives us an opportunity to try some newer and smaller wagers. A fun shot in the dark bet might be neither team to score 30 or more points in the fourth quarter. That rolls in at +275.
Numbers from the Milwaukee side do not seem to have much give so far. That could change depending on the whims of bettors. We have seen some Bucks game balloon from a spread standpoint. For now, we like that neither in the “Race to 30.”
NBA Vegas online betting odds include Denver and Golden State. Denver should be able to cover against a dysfunctional Golden State squad late Thursday night.
