Miami Heat games to watch next year: Milwaukee Bucks
If the cards play out the right way next year, this could be one of the best rivalries in the NBA. The last two seasons of basketball have set everything up perfectly.
In the 2020 NBA Playoffs, the Heat got through the Bucks with ease in what many saw as a big-time upset. They ended up making the Finals but unfortunately losing to the Lakers.
The very next season, the two teams were slated to matchup in Round 1 and many were picking the Heat to win. The Bucks swept the Heat in a wild turn of events.
Many believed it would be the best series of the playoffs, but that was not the case. Now, both teams are geared up for a great season this year.
Milwaukee has a big three and now the Heat have a big three of their own. Miami is much more well-suited to take on the Bucks this year than they were in the playoffs last year.
On top of all that, the Heat stole PJ Tucker away from the Bucks. Tucker won a championship with the Bucks last season and was a huge part of their defensive game plan.
Seeing him faceoff against his former teammates should be super fun to watch. Maybe he’ll have some defensive insights on Giannis Anteotkounmpo and Khris Middleton.
Regardless, the first time these two teams play each other it will be must-see TV. Who knows, maybe they’ll even give them a game on Christmas Day
