Bucks have way too much size for Heat's "small ball" version. Spo will need to play Zeller, as well as possibly Big Guac and ORob, if the series turns into a physical/grind them out affair or if Bam gets hurt. But, if it's a sweep or "Gentlemen's Sweep" not so much. If nothing else, the Heat can use all it's centers to "Whack a Greek" like they used to do to Shaq, because of his poor free throw shooting. Giannis shot FT's at under 65% for the season. It could work, especially at the end of close games.

That was definitely a fun game to watch, and great games from Jimmy buckets, plus strus juice. Is middleton still hurt?

Good game, great finish. But we were close to be burried by Drummond. Lack of size and athletism is a problem of this team, which translates in bad rebounding.

I hope for the best against Bucks... two wins in series would be a good result. But it shouldnt delay a makeover.

Whats is wrong with Bam?

I think he's dealing with multiple injuries.

Maybe just delaying the inevitable, but fun nevertheless!

Exactly. Rather be in the playoffs and go down than miss out alltogether. And maybe I am the oly one, but I think we have a 15% chance to beat the Bucks. I think our chances were much lower, almost none, towards beating the Celtics.

My concern, as always, is the size they can throw at us. With Giannis, Lopez, Portis, and Leonard, we need to counter that or it could be long nights, short series for the good guys. I hope at least that Zeller gets some minutes. He’s experienced, not afraid to mix it up, and can protect the paint and get rebounds.

Lopez is maybe the best rim protector in the nba. And Giannis is the best player period. And they have two other great players and several other good ones. But, its still foing to be a great watch for us all.

Or, to put it another way, I believe our series with the Bucks will be more competetive, i.e. closer games, than if we played Boston.
