Playoff basketball is finally here, and it has surely lived up to the hype so far. With two games of all the series’ over, we have seen some big giant killers like Mavericks or juggernauts like the Nets dominate. To kick off the third match of their series, the Milwaukee Bucks travel to the South beach to face off against the Miami Heat.
Given how the Heat had dominated the Bucks in their last meeting in the bubbles, it is safe to say there is no love lost between the two teams. While the Heat were expected to put on a show against the Bucks, coach Budenholzer and the Bucks had other ideas.
The Bucks have limited Jimmy Butler and with him mis-firing, the Heat’s offense has collapsed. Signing of Jrue Holiday has certainly paid dividends so far. With Holiday running as the point, Middleton can work his magic as an off-ball maestro.
