It's an action packed night in the Association with 28 teams hitting the NBA Hardwood as we get ready for the Christmas festivities this weekend. For my Same Game Parlay I'm focusing on the Bucks vs Nets clash, tipping off at 7.30 pm ET on NBA TV.

Let's dive in!
Milwaukee Bucks 1 – 10 Win Margin (+220)
This might be the biggest test coming the Nets way since their win streak started 7 games ago. Milwaukee has 2 wins in 3 games following that disastrous loss at Memphis last week, they'll be eager to bounce back following a tight loss at Cleveland on Wednesday. Giannis Antetokounmpo had another monster night with 45 points and 14 rebounds, but it wasn't enough. I'm expecting him to get a lot more help from Jrue Holiday tonight, he had just 9 points on 3-for-12 shooting in that game. His defense on Kyrie Irving will be key here, if there's one lockdown defender that can slow down Kyrie it's him. Milwaukee has won 6 of the last 7 meetings between these two teams, the 3 latest have been decided by an average of just 5 points. It promises to be a tight game tonight, but I think the Bucks prevail, possibly even in overtime.
