The Milwaukee Bucks dropped both games as expected in Miami. The margins indicate that the games were not close, but for the most part, the Bucks were staying in touch. Both games were decided by big runs. The Bucks gave up an 11-1 run early in the third quarter of Game One, and a 12-0 run to start the fourth in Game Two. The Bucks have now played six games vs. Miami this season, the last three were on the road. Overall, they are 1-5 with the only win coming here. They have defended the Heat very well, as Miami is averaging only 98 points per game against them this season, excluding overtime minutes. The problem is that they have managed just 92 ppg, so they are going to have to come out early here and match the Heat's defensive intensity, which I think they will do at home. These teams have not been able to top the total in the playoffs, nor have they been able to this year in the six games, except the overtime game they played the first time these teams met this season. Take the UNDER.
