Miami HEAT vs. Milwaukee Bucks | HEAT Full-Game Highlights | July 18, 2025

And then Butler gets the interception on the deep pass intended for Rice. It’s a legacy. Yeah. Final four at FAU along with a couple of guys that are here in summer league. One of them being Elijah Martin who is over Boston. Golden looking to drive baseline. Spins on Muday. Kicks it out to Butler. Golden with the push shot. drops it through. Rebound by Golden. Miami lost in the first round for the second straight year couple months ago after making the finals two years ago. I think you guys were talking about this last night that there has been a player that’s fouled out. There there have been a couple. We know Von Baker I believe was the first to do so. Actually, there’ve been five. Ryan around a screen hits Butler on the cut. couldn’t finish though and JC Butler no relation as John Butler gets the rebound on the defensive end. Gardner can’t finish but the tip in from Lewis. Well, it’s one of the reasons why Lewis was a first round pick. Things haven’t worked out quite yet in the NBA, but the great athlete now in his fifth season out of Alabama. basket by Golden two years ago and both of them of course losses to the Indiana Pacers which has become a rivalry for the Bucks as of now. So the Miles Turner signing meaning even more veteran that understands how to play alongside superstars. Three way off from Marovic and I believe they also resigned Kevin Bordon Jr. Would you look at that? Milwaukee back up a point inside a minute to go in the opening quarter. Cook a little out of control. Stevenson nails the corner three. Uh-oh. Logo three. Stevenson. Yeah, his second straight hit. Feel good about him right now for Stevenson pulling up. And it is definitely logo. When your heel is on the late great Jerry West logo, that is logo. Most academic institutions aren’t going to take elective credits from another school. So often times these guys who are continuing to move don’t graduate. So this now you have a generation of student athletes that don’t have a college degree. So that’s my biggest concern with it. I am all for NIL. I believe that NIL has been long overdue for that. I am not a huge fan of this transfer portal. Icing the screen, not allowing Cook to be able to get over the top, forcing him into a tough shot. Mud lost his footing and the ball. Turnover. Clark in transition. Oh, the reverse double. He was trying to keep the ball away from Cormarmac Ryan on both ends of the floor able to come up with the loose ball and the spectacular play to keep it away from Cormarmac Ryan and finish it off with the two hand backwards dunk. Gardner. Nice tip in by follow [Applause] Williams. A rarity. He spent five years at Louisville. No transfer for him. Cook again showing off. He was able to connect with so many of his guards this year. Stevenson, we talked about doing something besides shooting to try to impress. And a nice play by Malik Williams to get to the rim. But how about the guard Stevenson listed at 6’4? I’m not sure that’s legit. Derek Lively as well. Both those guys fit that category that you were talking about and the things they do to fit in. Another three by Stevenson. This fourth. When Frank Bogle won a championship with the Lakers in 2020, Anthony Davis was an elite three-point shooter at the time. He struggled at times since they had two guys make the alldefensive team and another two that didn’t because they didn’t play enough games. They probably could have had four to five on the all defensive team. Another turnover by Milwaukee and a layup on the other end. Stevenson with a nice pass. 4second difference in the game and shot clocks. Ryan on the punt fake, lets it fly, blocked. Plenty of time for Miami. Four on three. 8 seconds to go. Spot up three. Lewis. It’s good. Now you’ll find guys I mean the the new practice facilities of course everything so state of the art. Many more guys stay in their home base. Tyler Smith is unable to finish the layup. Mud there to clean up the mess. Golden with the one hand throw down. [Music] Golden. Another excellent defensive play. Golden another excellent defensive play. Really assertive on the defensive end going after blocks. Cook puts it on the deck. Nice pass to Golden. I don’t know how he got it to him. And Golden able to finish inside. Cook dropping it off in tight spaces. But look at that. Look at all the hands in the mix there trying to strip the basketball away. It doesn’t count as a FTA. And so therefore, you’re putting points on the board without having to get shots. Another thing that doesn’t count as an FGA, as you said, as the basket goes for Cook. You got teams like Orlando and Detroit that have a younger nucleus, but both teams had good seasons. Orlando dealt with more injuries than Detroit did. Tim Duncan had when he joined us in 1997. He’s going into a team at an organization that’s already ready to win. Williams on the drive, stripped. Another Miami turnover, but they get it back. Williams poking it away from Joplain. One handed slam by Danger over Marovic. Well, the Heat attacking the rim and Dane putting Marovic Edwards for three. Short. Dane just sneaking down court. Williams instead pulls it back to Cook who throws it down. Backto back slams. And now Milwaukee settling into the zone. JC Butler off the window and down. Taylor comes out of there with it. hits Marovic and Settle able to pick off that pass intended for a spot up shooter. Noel stopped this dribble. Skips to Joplin, rookie from Marquette has it swatted away by Steve Settlement. Puts it on the floor this time and turns it over. [Applause] Third chance opportunity for the Heat. Timer at eight. Golden. Nice turnaround jumper. [Applause] Gardner hits a three. Golden with a hard screen set on Ryan. Gets the pass back from Williams and banks it. Golden couldn’t finish that time. did really well finishing around the rim in his last two possessions. Kyra Lewis with the strip on Ryan. Oh, Gardner was able to elude Noel. You think he can jump higher than Golden who’s about 6 in taller? Well, we know he clearly can’t jump up high. Fair. Golden backs it home with 3 seconds to go on the shot clock. They have plenty of time. They won’t be able to advance it, but still enough time to get it down the floor. I think Cormack Ryan would have had
