Today's the key game. I say that the Heat come out sharper.

They don't need Herro. Heat with big effort today, will be a wire-job today.

I get betting an 8 seed in nhl playoffs but betting a 8 seed to beat a 1 in nba is unheard of. 4 times in history. Its just not worth it no matter what the perceived value is

I'm not though honestly. 4 teams all time have beaten 1 as a 8. Is +750 really enough for that kind of hill to overcome. Bucks futures didnt move against them when Giannis was banged up. Giannis still banged up and they remain #1 on future odds. I mean its quite obvious. Honestly I've been in alot of JV's threads offering up advice pregame and even before his bets are losses offering up advice to bet differently

Fair enough it has a small chance but a chance.

I had nets series v 6ers said rmbiid could get hurt. He did just too late

With jimmy butler always a chance but mission herro is brutal. Agree with you very small chance

Giannis being out was never gonna move futures when it's a short-term injury and the opponent is the Miami Heat. The Bucks are the deepest team in the league, they aren't strangers to missing their best player.

Furthermore, Herro is out for the Heat. That's a big deal. He's a different kind of scorer than Butler and without him they are much easier to defend. Those injuries just about cancel out. I'm not saying Herro is as good as Giannis, but his absence affects the Heat as much or more than Giannis' affects the Bucks because of roster makeup.

Up 2-1. Got a live ticket here.

Just one question:
*Do you think the Heat need Giannis to miss rest of series to win this thing?

Would be awfully nice if he misses Game 4. Chance to go up 3-1.

**budwiser** · 04-22-23, 10:26 PM

I see a line of -4 bux for gane 4

You think G will play?

**johnnyvegas13** · 04-22-23, 10:55 PM

I am surprised they release these w o knowing if he plays

we know the line was +2 and that should b down to a pk if he sits again

probably, it's winning time

**budwiser** · 04-22-23, 11:17 PM

-4 fanduel, -4 caesars, -4.5 mgm

to me, this looks like the kawhi leonard line. we'll see. it won't be 4 when it finishes. just a guess.

Miami Heat's Victor Oladipo suffers torn patellar tendon

Heat's Oladipo done for season with knee injury

https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/36273033/sources-heat-victor-oladipo-suffers-torn-patellar-tendon

Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo tore his left patellar tendon and will miss the rest of the postseason, the team announced on Sunday.

**Nate rasta** · 04-24-23, 11:24 AM

Bucks are 0-5 Ats last 5 games in Mia
Miami +7 seems like a strong play tonight

That sounds fukkin awful.

**Art Vandelay** · 04-24-23, 01:30 PM

Injuries mounting for Miami - Meanwhile looks like Giannis is finally a go for the Bucks tonight - This heads back to the "mean streets" 2-2

Jimmy Butler playing tonight?

**TheMoneyShot** · 04-24-23, 04:48 PM

I personally can't see (from an NBA business standpoint) having Miami heading to the next round. Boring as fu##. Books won what they did... now Milwaukee will start playing with a purpose.

**bjb7223** · 04-24-23, 09:06 PM

wow

**TheMoneyShot** · 04-24-23, 09:08 PM

Somewhat of a shocker... they never sent the double team to get it out of Butler's hands. Horrible coaching by Budenholzer. Series isn't over yet though.

**bjb7223** · 04-24-23, 09:09 PM

almost there Johnny

Interesting note. This guy (Budenholzer) does have a reputation for being a "roll out the balls" guy. Not necessarily a good in-game coach.

This is an odd type of series. Easily Milwaukee could win 3 in a row with Miami's injuries. How Butler isn't tired yet is beyond me. Maybe George and Leonard could take notes on how to never give up on your team like how Butler plays.

Yeah, Shot. Butler really gaining some fans. Just a herculean effort.

You're right. George and Leonard couldn't care less.

Think about the great players in the history of the league. Missing a playoff game normally meant you physically were incapable of playing. Kareem on crutches vs the Sixers, for example.

The NBA is littered w/ great players who played up to and beyond their limits:
*McHale: on the broken foot. Doctors told him not to play.
*Bird: with back problems. He said the Boston Garden fans took him to another level.
*Willis Reed: in game 7. Was basically listed as OUT. Went as long as he could, and then Frazier took over.
*Jordan: multiple times. Thru flu and injury.
*Ewing: on battered knees. People hate him but he was tough. Good even with a banged-up body.

**JIBBBY** · 04-24-23, 09:43 PM

Jimmy Buckets lit it up tonight!

**johnnyvegas13** · 04-24-23, 10:37 PM

Thinking bucks might win a blowout gm 5

jimmy and co save it for the gm 6 close out
