Our third choice from tonight's coupon is win of Miami Heat against the Bucks of Giannis Antetokounbo in performance 1.83 to winmasters.
The two teams have been following opposite paths lately with the Heat hosts running a negative streak of 5 defeats and the visitors coming from 3 consecutive victories, with the result that Miami fell to 7th place with a record of 29-26 and the Bucks climbed to 4th place reaching 30-23.
So despite the above data showing that the Greak Freak team is in better shape than Miami, there are several reasons that push me to bet on the ace.
First, last night, the exchange that sent the Heat symbol player, Dwyane Wade back to his favorite team, became known. Wade, who won 3 championships with Miami, returned after 1,5 years to complete his "home" career. This naturally sparked a storm of excitement in the team world and reversed the negative atmosphere created by the defeats. It is characteristic that today the American Airlines Arena is expected to be full. Competitively, Wade will definitely be able to give some extra information to the Heat, mainly due to his experience, while today he is expected to play normally.
Apart from the above, I do not think that the latest results are representative, since Miami has an excellent team with many useful and tough players and a very remarkable coach. It's just that maybe the team went through a phase of deformation that at some point will break and return to normalcy and good performances.
Another reason that I believe Miami has the first say today is the battle for the '' 5 '' position. On the one hand the dominant Whiteside and Adebayo and on the other the softer Henson together with Zeller tilt the scales on the side of the hosts. While the Bucks' problems in the ace with the Brogdon can be included in the equation, Dellavedova is left out.
Finally, we could say that the Heat have found the Bucks button since it is the team that may be more difficult for them than any other. The reason for this is that in the Miami roster there are players who play Antetokunbo perfectly, such as James Johnson and Whiteside. Besides, in the 2 games played by today's opponents, we had an equal number of defeats for the Bucks with 97-79 on 14/1 and 106-101 on 18/1 and with Greak Freak counting an average of 22 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists. moment that in total in the season counts 28 points 10,5 rebounds and almost 5 assists.
