Anyone want to guess what the number would be if Dante was healthy?
Vegas lines: Utah at 40.5
- Thread starter stitches
- Start date
40.5 will make pf on this prediction. wtf?

Bucks 43.5
I really think this is the easiest line. It's going to be under for sure, probably like 38.
Their record was awful with MCW and it's not like Greg Monroe has ever won in the NBA. MCW makes their offense worse and Monroe makes their defense worse. Trying to integrate Parker will be tough. Unless Giannis really turns the corner and can now shoot it 35% from deep, IDK about this team. I almost like Orlando turning the corner before this team. If I had to make a bold Eastern Conference prediction, I would say Orlando wins more games than Milwaukee.

Except...
1) The Bucks play very, very good defense.
2) Jason Kidd's a really good coach.
They went like 9-20 after the All-Star break.
*Not sure if thats the actual number, but I know they lost a lot of games after the break and had a terrible record after being 10 games over 500 at one point*
*EDIT* They went 11-18 after the All-Star break. Only 2 of those wins were to teams above .500. Overall not feeling they have a better record than last year at 41-41. Brandon Knight isn't great, but he is loads better for that team than MCW. Just too many ? for this team, in my eyes.

28:1 to win the East.
With Monroe's arrival and Jabari's return they could play .500 ball, and cruise into the playoffs. Especially if Jabari shoots much better from 3.
Giannis is too much of an X-factor to bet against, you better hope he gets injured if ya do.. He's the star, Middleton's the first option, Monroe's the "check-down" option when the halfcourt offense goes stale/clock's low.. Plus they have a good collection of other young players, many of which are in their first off-season with the team.
If Monroe can have a calming effect on their half-court offense, I'd say the over is probably pretty safe.
