Milwaukee Bucks vs Miami Heat: Storylines

The Milwaukee Bucks were once again one of the most consistent teams in the NBA throughout the season. They’re deep, strong, and know how to play on both ends of the floor. Nonetheless, coach Mike Budenholzer has left a lot to be desired in the playoffs earlier in the past, so hopefully, he’ll learn from his mistakes once and for all and give his starters a long leash in the postseason.

Erik Spoelstra has little left to prove come playoff time. He and Pat Riley put together quite a competitive squad in no time and you know that Jimmy Butler is always ready to perform in the postseason. The Miami Heat struggled to stay on the floor for most of the campaign due to countless ailments and the health and safety protocols but gladly, they’re finally ready and at full strength.
