Both teams are coming off of dissapointing losses against weaker opponents on their respective home courts. The game Wednesday between the two had the Bucks in the lead for most the game, until the Cavs pulled it out going on a 4th quarter run. The way the Bucks played against Chicago and the 4th quarter of the Cleveland game...I can't predict a road win. Cavs 102 Bucks 93
