+900 odds. They are way better than that and motivated off last years humiliation. Jrue Holiday is also a major upgrade over Eric Bledsoe.

They sh** the bed every playoffs. �� Giannis is a fake superstar he's a skinny big who doesn't have range , you expect him to carry the Bucks to a chip?

I agree. I have the Bucks making the finals actually. That's a good bet to make.

Giannis is skinny? What lol.... The point is all three of Giannis, Jrue, and Middleton are all sturdy players you can rely on physically. Embiid, Durant, and Kyrie are all injury prone and will be facing a gauntlet. So the Bucks easily have the best chance at making the Finals, yet their odds are a paltry +900. Anybody versed in sports betting could tell you there is a discrepancy between that and reality. The Bucks will also be extra pissed and motivated to supersede their tragic exit last year. The Clippers for me are the favorites, but they also have a payout that's only 1/3 of the bucks payout. Which is why they arent as good of a value pick. People should be dropping money on both though. Bet clippers, hedge bucks.

I agree with OP. The first reply shows why the odds are so good. Casuals can't see what is really going on with the Bucks.

Trading Holiday for Bledsoe was obviously a huge deal.

Bledsoe is a terrible playoff player who puts up weak, empty stats.

PJ Tucker also added some toughness to the Bucks too.

Too early to say how they will do in the playoffs but they did well against the nets so far but they had no Harden. Harden is by far the best nets player imo.

I don't know. I want to agree just not sure greek is ready. His game is coming along think he kist needs another year or so to develop. Another star wouldn't hurt either. Middleton is nice but he's not a star.

Middleton is putting up better than Klay numbers and is a multiple time All Star. So by definition, yes he is a star.

They should be the favorites.

They are stacked AF.

Giannis is DPOY and two time MVP

The have been the best team for years.

There are no more excuses and tbh there were none last year either.

This shouldn't be some hot take.

Bucks are a great bet if you want to lose money. :roll:

Jrue is a stud, Middleton is nice too but Giannis as a teams best player means the team isn't going far

How coach bud will lead them in the playoffs this time will ultimately determine this later.

Whatever, call him what u want. He's not as good of a second option as others have.

I used to think that but its simply not true. Giannis is too angry and motivated to lose. And he's not dumb. Its not like he's Westbrook or Iverson... He's not a dumb guy, just lacks skill and relies on offensive fouling to dominate offensively. So did Shaq though... so if the league allows it the league allows it. Winning is winning, and money is money.

I don't doubt his motivation or intelligence, but he's too game-plannable and can't shoot worth a damn when it actually matters. That isn't a good combination.

Nice call by OP. Bucks only two games away in spite of Holiday shooting like crap.
