Vegas odds for tonight’s Atlanta Hawks @ Milwaukee Bucks NBA game are now posted on NSAwins.com and vegas oddsmakers have made the Milwaukee Bucks a -1 point favorite with the total listed at over/under 188 points. Atlanta(51-29) enters tonight’s game holding a 1 game lead over Boston for the #3 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs, while Milwaukee(45-35) is in a dead heat with Miami for the #5 seed in th East. A loss to the Hawks at home tonight would increase the Bucks’ odds of matching up with Atlanta in the first round, while a win would give the Bucks the season series. With two games against Atlanta and Boston in the last three matchups on its schedule, Milwaukee (45-35) is in a rare position of having the oppurtunity to test out two teams it may face in the 1st round of postseason play. The Bucks are an impressive 21-7 since getting swingman John Salmons from Chicago on February 18, including a split in two games against Atlanta since that trade. Salmons poured in 32 points in each matchup, a 106-102 overtime defeat at Atlanta on February 28 and a 98-95 home triumph March 22. The loss in Milwaukee was Atlanta’s 18th in 21 trips to the Bradley Center. Atlanta has dominated at home – winning its last 11 home games – but continues to play poorly on the road, where it had lost six straight before taking over the last nine minutes of a 105-95 win against the Wizards in Washington on Saturday night. “That’s how we played earlier in the year when we were winning games on the road,” Atlanta head coach Mike Woodson told the NBA’s official Web site. “We’ve just got to get back to that, buckle down at home and then we’ll see what happens.” NSAwins.com’s expert handicapper William E. Stockton likes Milwaukee to continue it’s dominance against Atlanta in Milwaukee and beat the Hawks as a -1 point favorite tonight.
