Heat will be traveling to Milwaukee for round 1. Butler took over in the last 5 minutes and the Bulls couldn't respond. The Heat has that championship pedigree in their coach so they are not to be taken lightly.
It will be a huge upset if they do, Steve. Heat practically have the same lineup as they did last season when they went all the way to Game 7 with the Celtics, with that long missed 3 by Butler that would have carried them to the Finals. Bucks are playing fluid basketball, but Middleton is still a question mark with a knee injury suffered 2 weeks ago and has not been in practice. Again, he is a very important part of the Bucks, as we all know.I can’t see the heat beating a well rested Bucks team
Good point. Silver apparently wants more revenues.Here’s an interesting thought re the play in rounds
FWIW. in both EC and WC the 7 and 8 teams finished 7th and 8 th. So what was the purpose of the play in round

So now he's not cleared to play even 3 on 3. That must be longest running pulled hamstring I've ever seen in the NBA. As I've read before, the management seems to treat his injuries with kids gloves. They are protecting their investment for the next 4 years. Yet, 2 key players played through injuries. Meaning they were cleared to play?Finally management has something to say about Zion.......what a malingerer....
The Pelicans’ season ended Wednesday night with a loss to Oklahoma City in a Western Conference play-in matchup that was also the 46th straight game missed by Williamson since he injured his right hamstring on Jan. 2.
The day before the game, Williamson said he was no longer injured but added that he was not ready to play because he didn’t “feel like Zion. ”
