5 Takeaways from Heat’s Loss to Bucks in Game One

The Miami Heat fell short in game one against Milwaukee, in a very odd game all around.

Heat’s Defensive Scheme May Include Butler-Adebayo as Primary Roamers

After diving into the Miami Heat's offensive scheme against the Bucks yesterday, now it's time to look at the defensive side of things.

When looking at the Miami Heat's series against the Milwaukee Bucks last year, it's pretty obvious that both teams are different from where they stand today.
