Milwaukee looks to even series against Heat

The Milwaukee Bucks and Miami Heat will tip off Game 2 of their best-of-seven conference semifinal series at 5:30 PM Wednesday. Miami took the first contest behind a playoff career-best 40-point performance from forward Jimmy Butler. Miami was a fantastic 27-5 at home this year and has been good in the bubble since the restart, located in Orlando at Walt Disney World, about as close to home-court as any team can enjoy. They swept Indiana in the first round even though the Pacers were the higher seed. 


Milwaukee’s Giannis Antetokounmpo was primarily held in check in Game 1, netting only 18 points. He let opportunities slip away at the free-throw line, going 4-12 from the stripe. Center Bam Adebayo has the athletic ability to keep Antetokounmpo uncomfortable. Miami devoted so many resources towards Giannis that Brook Lopez and Khris Middleton had room to be very productive. Still, Miami pulled away by double digits in the end, highlighting how important it is for Giannis to get his points.
