    Why are Raptors -1 @ Milwaukee tomorrow?

    Trying to make sense of this line... seems a bit fishy to me.

    Anyone care to chime in?

    Part of it because theyve been losing.

    If you are saying it looks tight I assume part of this is their recent spread cover performance is very
    poor not to mention their losing compounded by todays disaster getting beaten by the Pelicans without
    Davis, at home and 11+. All in all not a bundle of good cheer. I didnt watch the game but I know they were down 14 at the half, came back in front by 10 then managed to give it up at the end. Dont know the whys and hows but Im going to be watching the game in the morning to find out

    Well Raptors are clearly the better team but they've been under performing as of late going 2-8 ATS last 10 games, while Milwaukee has been doing pretty well.

    I understand that their recent ATS is poor but -1 is hardly a spread... I think they rebound here and cover easily

    Raptors cannot beat very good offensive teams. They can beat good defence. They just cannot stop a solid shooting squad.

    Yes, and that's why Raptors may win here. Milwaukee is good defensively but struggles offensively at times. That's why I'm laying off this game. Too many unknown variables.

    So raptors embarrassed hell out of bucks last time. Bucks are looking for some serious revenge. Raptors are in a major rut. Things are not working for them lately. I can see an easy win for the Bucks here.

    I dont follow what you are saying here, the guy asked why the line looked low and explained why that could be the case. I wasnt comparing ML to ATS however I would advise that ATS performance is clearly a better indicator of how a team is doing than the ML for obvious reasons. Im not making a play here anyway at the moment, I was purely giving the guy a plausible explanation for his query

    Our Raptors should be able to take it home, this line is very strange tho.
