NBA Betting: Mavericks Try for 13th Straight as they host Bucks. The hottest team in the NBA is the Dallas Mavericks and they are favored in NBA betting as they host the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday.  Dallas has won 12 straight and gamblers making an NBA bet at Sbgglobal are definitely taking notice.

Bucks Road Struggles
The Bucks have really not played very well on the road this season which is somewhat of a surprise. The team has some very tough road games in the next couple of weeks with tonight’s game vs. Dallas and then stops in Portland, Los Angeles and San Antonio.  Their one home game during this stretch won’t be easy either as they host the Utah Jazz.  Milwaukee could be buried if they don’t come out of this stretch with at least a couple of road wins.  Milwaukee is 2-8 straight up so far this season on the road and not much better against the spread at 3-7.  Head coach Scott Skiles said that the team has played well in Dallas in the past.  Last year they had a shot to win at Dallas but Carlos Delfino missed a shot at the buzzer and they lost 108-107.  Last year the Bucks were decent on the road this season so perhaps they can turn it around.

Dallas Going for #13
The Mavericks have won 12 straight games and on Saturday they even covered at home.  The Mavericks have been known as a team that wins at home but doesn’t cover but on Saturday they were just barely able to cover against the Utah Jazz. Dallas got out to a 25-point lead and blew all of it before winning late. The Mavericks duo of Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Terry scored 21 of the Mavericks’ 22 points in the fourth quarter.

The Over is 4-0 in the Mavericks last 4 overall but the Under is 16-7-1 in the Mavericks last 24 home games. In this series though, the Over is 6-0 in the last 6 meetings in Dallas.
