The Miami Heat have gotten to a slow start of the 2020/21 NBA season. That was somewhat expectable considering theyāre coming off the shortest offseason in major sports history, with just 71 days between Game 6 of the NBA Finals and the start of this campaign.
To make things even worst, their superstar and leader Jimmy Butler has been dealing with injuries, so he wasnāt available to face off vs. Giannis Antetokounmpo and the revamped Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday night.
The Bucks hit the ground running as soon as the ball went up and never took their feet off the gas, hanging on to an 83-51 halftime lead en route to a humiliating 144-97 road victory over the very same team that knocked them out of last yearās playoffs.
Miami Heat Tyler Herro Says The Milwaukee Bucks Wanted To Embarrass Them
Thatās why rising star Tyler Herro had no choice but to take his hat off to Mike Budenholzerās team, as it was clear that they were on a mission and wanted to get back at them from the postseason:
āThey definitely came to Miami with a purpose, and that was to make us feel embarrassed,ā Herro said.
At least, the Kentucky product has nothing to be embarrassed about even after his teamās humiliating loss, as he was the Miami Heatās leading scorer with 23 points on 9/16 shooting and 3/8 from beyond the arc.
The Milwaukee Bucks hit a franchise-record 29 three-pointers in last nightās win but they wonāt have much time to celebrate, as theyāll face off again tonight, hopefully, with Jimmy Butler ready to go for the home team.
Both teams know that they have a lot to prove this season after falling short of their goal last year, so we can definitely expect Erik Spoesltraās team to bounce back after such a major beating.
