Welcome to the WI Sports Tap List. We’re still working on this structure. I would love for some feedback on this if you have it available. Happy to make this work for you guys to give you what you need to start your day. What the Tap List wants to do is give you a recap on what happened yesterday from the teams that played as well as any other headlines that are worth talking about. Yesterday was loaded with the Bucks and Brewers both in action plus we still have a ton of Aaron Rodgers’ headlines.

What Happened Yesterday?

Bucks continue to show their best against the Brooklyn Nets – Milwaukee won two straight games against Brooklyn. That’s very impressive. It is also worth noting that Milwaukee had an 18-1 run in the fourth quarter that overwhelmed this Nets squad. What was impressive about this win is no one dominated like Giannis did on Sunday. All of the team played a certain part in making this victory happened. Khris Middleton and Donte DiVencenzo were rough for three quarters then found it when it mattered the most in the fourth quarter. The Bucks are playing really good basketball.

Brewers drop their third straight game with more bad defense – Milwaukee cannot keep having defense lapses. They’re not a good enough offensive team to recover from those types of things. Eric Lauer had seven strikeouts, but he also gave up six runs, four of those were unearned. Brewers had two outs in the third. If Travis Shaw makes the solid play, Milwaukee is out of that inning at 2-1 Phillies. Instead, the error leads to a Brad Miller three-run homer. Brewers do come back slightly but ultimately fall 6-5.

Everyone wants to trade Aaron Rodgers – The media thinks that Rodgers and the Packers are done with each other. Whether to believe that or not is your choice. Personally, I think it’s way too early to start having this conversation. There are a few weeks to go before June 1st. And even on June 1st, it doesn’t mean that they’re trading away Aaron Rodgers. That’s ridiculous. The NFL media has nothing to talk about right now, therefore, they’re sucking the tit of this Rodgers’ story.

Star of the Day

Jrue Holiday – The amount of respect that people are gaining for Jrue Holiday is growing inside the league. Holiday had another great game for Milwaukee. He scored 23 points, 10 rebounds, and 8 assists. Holiday did this all while playing defense on Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant. Irving did have a good game, but in the key moment down the stretch, Holiday poked the ball loose and forced the turnover

— Milwaukee Bucks (@Bucks) May 5, 2021

Giannis gives Blake Griffin the business is always going to be something that makes me smile. I like Blake off the court on Pardon My Take and other things, but on the court, the guy is one of my least favorite players in the NBA.

Did the Wisconsin sports teams make in-state bettors money last night?

The Bucks covered the -1.5 point spread with relative ease last night. If you had the over in the Nets/Bucks game, it was a heartbreaker as it ended up at 242 which was one point off from a push at 243.

The Brewers did not cover the money line, but if you bet their run line (+1.5), they did cover that incredibly being down 6-1. They also had a fourth straight game go over in the over/under.

What’s on Tap Tonight?

Chase Anderson’s revenge game tonight for the Milwaukee Brewers as he faced his former team. Freddy Peralta goes for Milwaukee and hopes to stop the three-game losing streak. Brewers are favored at -135 with the over/under set at 8. The game begins at 6:05.

Bucks are also in action tonight against the Washington Wizards. The Wiz are one of the hottest teams in basketball. The hangover could be real for the Bucks. No word on if guys will rest. Bucks are favored by 6.5 with the over/under at 242. The game begins at 7.
