Heat one game away from sweep
The Miami Heat relied on the shooting of Ray Allen to rally past the Milwaukee Bucks, 104-91, to take the 3-0 lead in their series.
It is a known fact that no NBA team has ever come back from a 0-3 deficit in a best-of-seven series.
But give credit to the Bucks though. They practically controlled the ballgame in the first half, leading 30-21 after one and 50-48 at halftime.
But according to an old adage in basketball, it became a case of a game of two halves for the Bucks, much to the shagrin of the 18,165 fans inside the BMO Harris Bradley Center.
LeBron James led the run for the Heat, scoring seven of his 22 points in the 3rd quarter alone, on which they outscored the Bucks, 30-18.
Chris Bosh had a solid double-double performance, scoring 16 points, mostly from open jumpers and grabbing 14 rebounds. Dwyane Wade only scored four points, but he still had 11 assists, 9 rebounds and 5 steals, not bad for an off night.
But the hero of the game for the Heat was Allen, who now holds the NBA Postseason record for most 3-point shots made at 322 for his entire career. He led his team with 23 points on 5/8 from downtown.
Larry Sanders and Brandon Jennings led the Bucks with 16 points each.
Luc Richard Mbah a Moute did well in the first half against LeBron, but the reigning MVP still reigned over, specially in the second half.
Game 4 of the series will be played on Monday at 3:30 AM Manila time, simulcast on NBA Premium TV.
