Miami Heat vs. Milwaukee Bucks: Will Erik Spoelstra shine once again against Mike Budenholzer?

If there’s one distinct advantage that the Heat has over the Bucks it’s at the head-coaching position. Will all due respect to Mike Budenholzer, who is a good coach, he has simply faltered in big moments during the playoffs in his recent history.

He has difficulty adjusting game-to-game and that’s simply something that Spoelstra excels at most. An argument could be made that he is the best in the league at that. In Game 2, after the Heat lost Game 1, we’re going to find out if Spoelstra will be able to give Miami that distinct advantage once again.

Spo and the Heat are going to make adjustments heading into Game 2. Whether or not they are effective and whether or not Budenholzer makes adjustments himself should go a long way in not only deciding Game 2 but also give us a glimpse into what we could expect for the remainder of this first-round playoff series.
