Game 2

The Tension Is Rising: Heat vs. Bucks, Predictions & Lines

The postseason series between these two excellent teams began as we all expected, with a match in which they fought from start to finish and had a significantly consistent result. Game 2 of this 2021 NBA Playoffs series between the Miami Heat and the Milwaukee Bucks will be this Monday, May 24, 2021, at the Fiserv Forum, in what will be another evenly matched and very well contested game for both teams. After this first game, they can already see the weaknesses and strengths of their opponent.

How do Heat and Bucks arrive?

The first game between the Heats and the Bucks this postseason did not disappoint. The game ended with a 109-107 result in favor of the Bucks, but only after extra-time after finishing the fourth period 99-99.

In this first game, the Miami Heat fell short of their offense since their primary weapon Jimmy Butler only managed to score 17 points in his 46 minutes of play. But, one point in Heat’s favor is that they know that Butler will count for the remainder of the series with the offensive support of his teammates Duncan Robinson and Goran Dragic, who scored 24 and 25 points, respectively.

The Heat had a field shooting percentage of 36.4% with 36/99 scored and, their main offensive weapon shown was the triples, since they scored 20 triples in 50 attempts, for a 40% effectiveness, something that the Bucks must control for your next game.

While the Bucks were led, again, by Giannis Antetokounmpo, who fell with 26 points scored, Khris Middleton with 27 points, and Jrue Holiday with 20 points, something to highlight about the Bucks, they played a phenomenal internal game. They had 43.8% of field goals, but their external game was pathetic; they scored only 5 triples in 31 attempts for 16.1% and, in terms of free throws, 20/32 scored for 62.5%, a meager percentage for a team of this size like the Bucks who aspire to be in the final this season.

The Bucks had a very irregular game, but they still took the victory, which is why, if they correct these shooting percentages, it would be a little easier for them to win the series against the Heat.

Series as even as these are very difficult to see in this NBA today.
