Bledsoe will be a game-time decision. That doesn't sound good. 

I am pessimistic about this series after Game 1. I hope they surprise me, but I see another close game that will come down to whether Milwaukee can execute in the half-court late. 

The last 5 playoff games against legit teams (Orlando had no real chance to win the series) have been. 

Game 3 Raptors 2019 - Double overtime loss

Game 4 Raptors 2019 - the only blowout loss

Game 5 Raptors 2019 - Tied at 93 with 2:44 left. Get outscored 12-6. 

Game 6 Raptors 2019- Down by 1 with 5:44 left. Get outscored 11-5. 

Game 1 Heat 2020 - Down 1 with 4:47 left. Get outscored 16-6. 

They have to solve this problem in close playoff games. It's in their heads and it's a bit in Bud's head (going back to the regular season juggernauts he had in Atlanta).

Offensively just completely lost. Miami’s ball pressure is really really in their heads. That’s why you gotta run. You gotta get them uncomfortable. But stop trying these ridiculous high degree of difficulty passes already! 

5 out lends itself to one on one... but when the opponent is up to the task, you gotta try something else. Bud needs to just acknowledge- their backcourt is better. Play chess here and dictate the matchups!
