The Milwaukee Bucks came to town last night and got the Heat with some tired legs. Miami was on the second night of a back-to-back, after playing a great game against the Philadelphia 76er’s. This one had a bad feel to it from the start, when the Bucks were attacking the size advantage it hadwith Andrew Bogut over Joel Anthony. That caused Anthony to pick up two early fouls and forced the Heat to bring in Eddy Curry. It was Curry’s second game playing this year and he was average at best. You can easily tell that he is not near full game shape yet.
The game went back and forth for the most part, with LeBron James forced to do a lot of the heavy lifting in the first half. He had 20 points in the
first half, but only ended with 28 points for the entire game. LeBron had a great rebounding game with 13. Chris Bosh wasn’t able to really explode
like he had it previous games, and was held to 23 points.
Miami was held to a number of season lows last night including, points scored, field goal percentage, field goals made, and assists. This was also
the first time the team has lost all season with Dwyane Wade missing the game. Hopefully Wade won’t be out much longer and the Heat can be back to full strength very soon.
The Heat host the Cleveland Cavaliers tomorrow night for the first time this season. Expect another big game from LeBron in this one…
