Frank Martin
The Miami Heat are only one of three teams with at least 20 victories, but they have yet to find a way to beat the Milwaukee Bucks this season.
The Heat will get a third crack at the Bucks on Monday in the fourth stop of their six-game road trip. It is the second of three games in as many nights for Miami, which visits Indiana on Tuesday. Milwaukee has lost three straight at home since beating the Heat on Feb. 1.

The Heat have opened as 6.5-point favorites on SBG Global Sportsbook’s Live NBA Basketball Odds.
Miami Heat (21-7): Facing three games in three nights, Miami got just what it wanted Sunday – a blowout of Atlanta that allowed the Heat to rest their starters. Dwyane Wade, who missed the first matchup with Milwaukee, continued his hot stretch by scoring all 21 of his points in the first half. Wade entered Sunday's game averaging 27.2 points in his previous five games. Chris Bosh grabbed a season-high 16 rebounds. He is averaging 11.3 boards in the last four games.
Milwaukee Bucks (12-15): Milwaukee beat the Heat twice in 11 days to cap a 6-2 stretch, but has lost four of six since, with both wins coming on the road. Despite playing out of position since the injury to center Andrew Bogut, Drew Gooden has thrived with six 20-point games as a member of the starting rotation. He is averaging 21.9 points in his last five games. Guard Brandon Jennings, an All-Star reserve, has scored 54 points in the two wins over Miami.
1.
The Bucks have won the last three
meetings with the Heat, including twice in Miami in which they held them to 85 points or
fewer.
2. Miami point guard Mario Chalmers has more turnovers (11) and
personal fouls (nine) than assists (seven) in the two matchups with Milwaukee
this season.
3. The Heat have won five of
their last six and have gone 10-2 since a home loss to the Bucks on Jan. 22.
