Milwaukee Bucks: Takeaways From Win Over Miami Heat
By Ti Windisch
The Milwaukee Bucks smacked the Miami Heat around in the first half, but nearly let them make things very interesting late. What can we learn from this game?
The Milwaukee Bucks can’t just win a game consistently for four quarters. That would be too boring. To help liven things up, Milwaukee likes to mess around for at least a quarter and see what the other team can do.
On Friday night the Miami Heat were in town. The Heat suck. They were 11-29 going into Friday’s game, meaning only the Brooklyn Nets had more losses. For a proud franchise like the one in Miami, that’s a tough pill to swallow.

Miami’s mounting loss total doesn’t mean the Heat can be taken lightly, though. Goran Dragic and Hassan Whiteside are really good players, and Erik Spoelstra is a fantastic NBA coach. This franchise still has some life in it, even though they’re right at the bottom of the standings.
The Heat showed their life late on Friday, making a game the Bucks led at halftime by 17 end with a point differential of less than ten. Milwaukee will take any wins the team can get, but 116-108 is a tight final score for how good the Bucks played for most of the first three quarters.
Even still, this was a fun game and a good win for Milwaukee. It was also a learning experience. There’s a lot of things that can be taken away from any NBA game, but the following four takeaways seem like four of the most vital from Friday’s action.
