Heat surprises Bucks in first match
Miami basketball players beat Milwaukee Bucks 115: 104 (29:40, 31:23, 32:23, 23:18) to 1-0 in a series of four victories.
Butler has a new “play-off” record of 40 points and 14 of them in the fourth quarter. Goran Dragic also helped the winners with 27 points, but Bem Adebajo added 12 points, 17 rebounds and six assists.
“I raised my level in the fourth quarter,” Butler said after the match. “If you need it in every game, you have to be ready to do it. But the other team members are also capable of it.”
Chris Middleton had 28 points in the Bucks, Brook Lopez scored 24 points, Jann Adetokunbo scored 18 points, ten balls under the baskets and nine assists for just four of the 12 penalties.
“He must stick to what he has done before. He must continue to play with confidence, attack and provoke offenses. He will throw free throws. We fully trust him,” Bucks head coach Mike Badenholzer commented on Adetokunbo’s performance.
Time for the seventh game! Paul beats up in the fourth quarter and brings the Thunder victory over the Rockets

In the Thunder ranks, Chris Paul stood out with 28 points, who equalized the result 13 minutes before the final whistle with penalty shots. Danilo Galināri took the lead with 25 points, who, following the mistake of Russell Westbrook, put the Thunder in the lead with “penalties”.
In the Rockets, James Harden scored 32 points, scored eight rebounds and scored seven times, 18 points for Robert Covington and 17 points for Westbrook. Harden and Westbrook scored a total of 12 out of 22 “Rocekts” errors.
