Milwaukee at the HEAT

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Milwaukee seems to have found itself, so to speak, after a rather shakey start of the 2009 season. The Bucks acquired John Salmons just before the Feb 18 trade deadline, and he is fitting into the Milwaukee scheme very nicely. Salmons has scored 19,19,15,18 and 20 points in that order in the last five Milwaukee games he played in. Not bad for an immediate fix for some of the Buck's problems. The 30 year old, 6'6" 207 pound Salmons was acquired from the Bulls in a trade which among other things sent Hakim Warrick and Joe Alexander to the windy city.

Earlier this season on Jan 30th and on Feb 1 in a back to back encounter with the Heat, Milwaukee won both games......the first 95-84 and the other 97-81. The Bucks shot 45.3% and 50.7% respectively, to the Heat's 37.2 % and 36.4 %. The Bucks also out rebounded the Heat in both games and bested them in points in the paint. It was no contest in free throws 80.9% Bucks, 69.6% Heat. They did that without John Salmons, who is touted as making the team much stronger.

The line is now Miami -2 with a total of 181. Duwayne Wade will have to do it all, because the rest of the heat is on vacation, I think. This game should go over the total with the help from Bogut and Jennings, and if you can figure out why Miami is favored, write it on a big balloon and send it up for the rest of us to see.

Game goes off at 3:30 PM.
Good Luck.
