This one's tough, but I’m leaning Clippers. The Bucks are a mess right now, sitting 29-44 and losing six of their last eight. Giannis Antetokounmpo is still Giannis, averaging 30.7 points and 11.5 rebounds, but he can't do it all.
The key matchup will be Kawhi Leonard against Antetokounmpo. Leonard has been playing some of his best ball, dropping 31 points against the Nuggets last week. And the Clippers, at 38-36, have found a rhythm with their new pieces, even if it took a while. They've won three of their last four, including big wins over Denver and Portland. Milwaukee’s defensive struggles are real, giving up 118 points per game in their last five. The Clippers, on the other hand, are starting to look like contenders. They're going to exploit those defensive gaps.
I’m saying the Clippers win this one, 125-115.
