This years NBA playoffs started off with a bang as the first game went to overtime. That game was the Heat vs Bucks game one where Jimmy Butler tied the game at 99 with 0.4 seconds on the clock and Khris Middleton won the game with 0.7 seconds left on the clock in overtime. Not only was the first game good there was plenty of upsets around the league, (5) Mavericks beat the (4) Clippers, (6) Trail Blazers beat the (3) Nuggets, and (8) Grizzlies beat the (1) Jazz. This is the most parody the league has seen nobody really knows whose gonna win the championship. Sure the Nets are the odds on favorites but who knows if their big three will all stay healthy for these playoffs. With the first batch of game 2's tonight we might be able to see how things are gonna shake out but at the same time could create other storylines, as any game can. Tonight the Bucks play the Heat while being up 1-0. In game one the Heat out scored the Bucks by 45 points from beyond the arc, but got poor performances by their stars Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo. Look for Jimmy to get the team back on track tonight in Milwaukee while they try to steal one from the Bucks. The second game tonight is the Trail Blazers and the Nuggets, the Blazers stole game one and look to take game two but I expect Nikola Jokic to have a huge game to tie this series at 1-1.
