Atlanta Hawks Form
Atlanta head to Las Vegas for the NBA Cup semi-finals having now won seven of their last eight games.
The Hawks lost three consecutive outings in late November, but rallied before the month as they recorded back-to-back upsets of Cleveland, winning 135-124 on the road and 117-101 at home.
They then took their win streak to six games as the beat Charlotte 107-104 on the road, New Orleans 124-112 at home, Milwaukee 119-104 on the road, and the Los Angeles Lakers 134-132 (OT) at home.
Atlanta failed to make it seven wins in a row, as they lost 141-111 at home to Denver, but they rebounded immediately.
The Hawks returned to NBA Cup duty on Wednesday night and booked their place in the semi-finals with a 108-100 victory in New York.
Milwaukee Bucks Form
Milwaukee also go into the NBA Cup semi-finals on a good run of form, having now won nine of their last 11 games.
The Bucks made a slow start to the season, but finally found some form in late November to kick-start their campaign.
A 101-100 win against Houston proved to be the start of a seven-game win streak that saw them also beat Chicago 122-106, Indiana 129-117 and Charlotte 125-119 at home.
Milwaukee then travelled to Miami for a 106-103 win, before beating Washington 124-114 at home and Detroit 128-107 on the road,
The Bucks’ run was ended by a 119-104 defeat to Atlanta and a 111-105 loss in Boston, but they have rebounded by beating Brooklyn 118-113 and Orlando 114-109.
Verdict
Milwaukee are enjoying a good run, but they continue to find covers hard to come by.
The same cannot be said for Atlanta, especially in the underdog role, so we are taking the Hawks and the free buckets in this semi-final showdown.
