NBA betting has the new look New York Knicks hosting the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday. The Knicks definitely look different with Tracy McGrady in the lineup and they could have some success in this basketball betting matchup against Milwaukee. NBA betting has the Bucks looking for the season sweep over the Knicks. They have won the two previous games this season. The last time Milwaukee swept New York was in the 1990-91 season when the Bucks went 4-0 against the Knicks. New York forward David Lee leads the team with 20.1 points per game and ranks 15th in the NBA in scoring. He also averages 11.5 rebounds per game, which is fifth in the league.
The Bucks have won six of the last ten against the Bucks but the teams have split the last ten against the NBA betting odds.
