Look, this one feels pretty straightforward. The key matchup to watch is Damian Lillard against Jrue Holiday, though it might not be the defensive battle Holiday usually brings, given the Bucks' struggles.
Portland’s been playing some decent basketball lately, winning six of their last ten, including a tight one against the Bulls where Dame went for 40. The Bucks, on the other hand, are just trying to get to the offseason in one piece; they’ve dropped seven of their last ten and look completely disjointed since the All-Star break. Thing is, even with Giannis Antetokounmpo back, they’re still giving up easy buckets and look lost on offense for stretches.
I've got Portland winning this comfortably, 128-115.
