The first two games of the series were played in Milwaukee, and the Heat did a good job of winning one on the road.

Therefore, the series is tied up at 1-1 with Games 3 and 4 on their home floor.

This season, the Heat have been excellent at home, going 27-14 in the 41 games they hosted in Miami, Florida.

The Heat finished with a 44-38 record and were the seventh seed in the Eastern Conference, but they lost their first play-in tournament game, so they are the eighth seed.

That said, the franchise has made the NBA Playoffs in each of the last three seasons and is coming off a year where they lost in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

They have one of the best rosters in the NBA, so there is still a chance they could return to the Conference Finals for the third time in four seasons.

As for the Bucks, they went 58-24 during the regular season, which was the best record in the league.

However, they have had to play most of the series (so far) without two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo, who injured his back in Game 1.

The All-Star forward is questionable for Game 3.
