    Thoughts on heat +380 series vs the bucks

    I saw+476 this morning. I think the heat are a tough matchup vs the bucks. I'm not saying they win the series but they will give the bucks problems.

    Definitely has great value. Should be -200. Butler and co could easily win 2 games and make it interesting

    I've liked the Heat a lot for some time, and I don't really like the Bucks. I think both, them and the Raptors, took regular season games too seriously...and weren't as good as their blow outs suggested....In a lot of ways, I think the Heat are better. However, I think the Bucks have the veterans with enough talent and focus to negate Dragic, Robinson, Herro and Olynyk, especially the last three.... Jimmy Butler will sort of get his, but without those guys playing top notch they can't win. If Crowder plays lights out, watch out. One thing I am ignorant about is Bam Adebayo? Is he that good? Can he keep up with Giannis, I don't think so at all.

    Plus, I think the Heat are sort of in la-la land after playing a horribly coached Pacers team without Sabonis.

    And most importantly, the Bucks are in Wisconsin and led they boycott.

    Yes. The Bucks have not been looking good in the bubble and gave up tons of open 3s to Orlando but they couldn't knock down shots. Miami has a ton of guys that can hit open shots.

    Miami won the season series.

    Adebayo is the best on ball defender in the NBA vs Giannis based on stats(fairly small sample size).

    I think Miami will give the Bucks some problems this series and I like the value on the series price.

    Heat won the regular season series 2-1. I expect a tight series.. I still lean the Bucks though..


    REGULAR-SEASON SERIES

    Miami won the season series 2-1. The Heat rallied from a 21-point deficit in the third quarter to win at Milwaukee 131-126 in overtime on Oct. 26 without Jimmy Butler. Miami outscored Milwaukee 54-21 from 3-point range on the way to a 105-89 win on March 2. And the Bucks rallied from 23 points down to beat Miami, playing without Butler and Goran Dragic, 130-116 in the bubble on Aug. 6.

    I'll be looking at the over in every game
    as long as it's not a bubble buster of a total.

    for the series, I like the Bucks

    My two cents.
    If you can get Miami +400 or better for the series that's a good value bet.

    Looks like a volatile series to me. Bucks could win 4 straight at any moment. Maybe they sweep.

    Don't be naive! Bucks beat themselves. You think if they played as they did in games 2,3,4,5 the Magic would have won a single game? I don't.

    Maybe, we'll see. Seems the Butler/ Middleton matchup could be really bad for the Bucks. Middleton is the leader of the Bucks in some respects. Butler has a way of reducing his opponent to rubble.

    Bucks need another good guard. Oh wait, they have one. Will be different when Bledsoe comes back. Still think Heat are at leas Equal, but Bucks will find a way to win series....I realize this is a hedge and thus I am saying next to nothing. I did take Bucks 1Q today because I fear the Heat's subs and later rotations. In true fashion Olynky d*cked at the end of 1st half. Only reason I took some half action instead of quarter is that I wanted to get it in last night. Lack of patience cost me.

    They need more around Giannis. They have a really solid squad that is constructed well around their star, but don’t think they can win a championship having Giannis play iso ball while everyone watches. They kind of remind me of the Orlando teams that had Dwight. It was a dominant interior guy surrounded by average players who can shoot threes.

    I know Middleton had a nice game today but he shouldn’t be a second option.

    Their offense will just get worse with him playing. He is a heck of a defender though and will help on the glass also.

    Agreed. They count on their defense to get them going and in rhythm. Can't let Dragic have that kind of day.
