Pray that Milwaukee does not have a first-quarter like they did in Game 2

All season long, the Bucks were one of the best three-point shooting teams and while they really do not have much bench depth, they have some great shooters on their roster that when they get hot, it is all over for their opponents. 

As stated earlier, Milwaukee made 10 three-pointers in the first-quarter of this game, which helped lead the Bucks to 46 first-quarter points. This simply cannot happen in any game moving forward in this series, but what can the Heat really do about it?

Defensively, they can be a little more active in trying to defend the perimeter instead of focusing all of their attention on Giannis Antetnokounmpo’s ability to drive to the rim, but at the end of the day, they just have to convert at the other end of the floor. 

If the Heat are not making their shots on offense, then Milwaukee will be able to control the pace and push the ball in transition, leading to plenty of wide-open three-point attempts like we saw Monday night. 

Miami is also going to have to say a team prayer before the game for the Bucks to miss their open three-point attempts, but at the end of the day, the Heat can do little things to try and take away some good opportunities for Milwaukee to blow the game open. 

The Bucks may be the more talented team on paper and have more high-level scoring talent than the Heat, but there is no reason why the Heat cannot send this series back to Milwaukee tied at 2-2. The Bucks did their job at home, now the Heat need to do theirs.
