AM: What’s your prediction for how the game will play out?

CW: Thank everything that the NBA doesn’t normally work this way, but considering that the Bucks knocked off a Warriors team that beat the Lakers by 34 points, it’s pretty hard to be optimistic about the Lakers’ chances.

Milwaukee has been prone to inconsistency, but I think that they have the potential to simply overwhelm the Lakers with their length, youth, and athleticism on the perimeter both offensively and defensively. I think Randle might have a nice game if he’s able to match up with Jabari Parker and Greg Monroe and go to work, but I don’t think that’s going to be enough. I see the Bucks winning pretty handily.
