Miami Heat: 3 Direct Offseason Attacks On Bucks – Kyle Lowry To Counter Jrue
The Miami Heat destroyed the Bucks in the NBA Bubble. The Bucks brought in Jrue Holiday and returned the favor in these past playoffs.
Brought In Kyle Lowry To Counter Difference Between Bubble-Bucks And Title-Bucks
The difference between the team that the Miami Heat handled in the bubble and the team that obliterated them this past season is literally Jrue Holiday. While there are other things at play there, such as development from players, motivation to beat Miami, and other things, that is something to think about.
The Miami Heat brought in a guy of their own, in Kyle Lowry, that should neutralize the presence of Jrue Holiday. Different types of players, this isn’t saying exactly what you think it might be, however, it’s saying that their impacts should counter one another’s and balance things out.
That leaves it up to the same guys that dueled in the bubble to figure it out. While Giannis is the best player of the four remaining and with Kyle Lowry there to neutralize Jrue Holiday’s impact, Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo are still the second and third best player of the remaining four, which is why they have an advantage there.
Yes, what Khris Middleton was able to do in this Finals run was amazing, but he had a few clunkers along the way too and again, what if Jrue Holiday’s impact isn’t as greatly felt? Is he still that same guy?
The answer remains to be seen, but you have to take your chances that he isn’t when Jrue Holiday’s impact isn’t as greatly felt as it was in this run. That’s what you hope Kyle Lowry does for you if you are the Miami Heat.
