Cleveland Cavaliers vs Milwaukee Bucks: Current situation
After making it into the 2nd round of the Playoffs last year, the Cleveland Cavaliers have finally found their core group after many years of searching in the post LeBron James era. Donovan Mitchell, Darius Garland, and Evan Mobley appear to be clicking on all cylinders, despite a lot of doubt cast on Mitchell’s happiness with the team last season. The 7-0 start to the season certainly helps, if the Cavs can stay competitive, Mitchell will not be seeking a way out of town.
Milwaukee was one of the frontrunners according to the oddsmakers to challenge the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference prior to the season starting. 7 games in, that cannot be further away from what’s going on. Doc Rivers is now just 19-25 as the Bucks head coach, failing to get the best out of superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo and the team. With 3 of the next 4 games being against Eastern Conference contenders, a losing record could very well seal his faith as Bucks head coach.
Cleveland Cavaliers Stats & Form
Who would have thought that the Cleveland Cavaliers would be the leading team in the Eastern Conference after 7 games played. The 7-0 record is their best start to a new season since the 1976-77 season when they went off on a franchise record 8- game win streak to start a new season. Their defense has been tremendous during the run, but offensively they’ve been clicking as well, scoring at least 130+ points in 3 games played so far. It’s hard to find anything wrong with this team right now, the Cavaliers mean business.
Milwaukee Bucks Stats & Form
To say that the opening two weeks of the season have been a disaster for Milwaukee would be an understatement. The Bucks find themselves in 14th place in the Eastern Conference, rumors are already circulating how head coach Doc Rivers has lost the dressing room, if things don’t turn around quickly we could see another coaching change in Milwaukee. Damian Lillard really struggled last week vs Memphis going just 1-12 from the field, but luckily he bounced back with a 41 point night against the Cavaliers, albeit in a losing effort.
Cleveland Cavaliers vs Milwaukee Bucks: Head to Head
Saturday’s win was Cleveland’s 2nd in a row in head-to-head meetings, but they are still way off in the all-time regular season match-up, trailing the Bucks by 30 wins. The two teams have split the 4 regular season meetings the last 2 seasons as well. Prior to Saturday’s game we had 3 straight meetings where a team won by double digits.

Betting tip and prediction: Cleveland Cavaliers vs Milwaukee Bucks (04.11.2024)
Milwaukee has the 5th worst Net Rating in the NBA through 7 games played, while the Cavaliers are 3rd and are winning games by an average of 14.3 points per game. Cleveland did win the match-up over the weekend, but it took a heroic effort from Donovan Mitchell who knocked down the game winner to do so. Milwaukee is desperate to get a result here, they got 70+ points from Giannis and Dame in that game on Saturday night. Beating the same team two games in a row is never easy in the NBA, especially when it’s a home and home scenario. Milwaukee heads into this game as a 7.5 point underdog, which is a bit surprising after we saw them knock down 18 threes on the Cavs just two days ago. Cleveland has impressed, but their streak has to come to an end at some point. We believe the Bucks are capable of hanging around in this game, so we’re going with the road team and the huge spread here.
