Heat fail to take advantage of Antetokounmpo's absence, fall 118-115 in OT to Bucks

The Miami Heat should have known better.

Because sometimes it is about more than the just the leading man.

Just as it had been for the Heat in a 7-0 start to this postseason that came to a careening halt with a 118-115 overtime loss Sunday to the Milwaukee Bucks at Disney’s Wide World of Sports complex.

Even with Giannis Antetokounmpo lost to the Bucks for the balance of the game — and perhaps balance of this best-of-seven series — early in the second quarter with a sprained right ankle, Milwaukee had enough to close within 3-1 in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference semifinal series.
