It's only a matter of time before the Heat advance and the Bucks go home for the summer. But will it be on Sunday?
As expected, the Bucks return home for game three down 2-0 to the all-conquering Heat. And while no one is expecting the Bucks to make this series particularly competitive, a win in game three could at least make the Heat sweat.

Three years after their last postseason appearance, the Bucks return to the playoffs with the league's most thankless task: beating the Miami Heat. And while no one actually expects that to happen, there's a reason they play the games, right?

Fresh off a painful loss--in more ways than one--the Bucks head to Atlanta on Friday hoping to get at least a couple of key rotation players back.
With their playoff spot locked down and seeding essentially locked in, the Bucks will try to climb back closer to .500 when they visit the Magic on Wednesday. J.J. Redick will be making his first return to Orlando since being traded to Milwaukee.
With their postseason destinies all but sealed, the Milwaukee Bucks and Toronto Raptors will face off Saturday night in a game that could officially stamp the Bucks' ticket to a first round date with the Miami Heat.

After a much-needed blowout of the Bobcats on Monday, the Bucks finish their homestand hoping to take advantage of a Wolves club still making due without star Kevin Love.
Having put a tough stretch behind them, the Bucks start April with a pair of rather winnable home games against the Bobcats and Timberwolves.

Two days after coming up short in Atlanta, the Bucks head to Indianapolis to close out their season series with the Pacers--the team they'd likely face in the first round should they manage to fight their way out of the 8th seed in the East.
The Bucks' quest to avoid the 8th seed in the East may well go through Atlanta, as Milwaukee will face the 5th seeded Hawks three times in the final month of the season.
