The low post is brought to you by Good Year helping you discover the road ahead. Good year more driven.

And now the low.

Welcome to the low post podcast on Friday morning and the playoffs are here.

between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Miami Heat with the Bucks staring straight

at the ghosts of bubble failures past. And they had a chance to duck this series.

They did not take it. They instead stomped the heat without Jimmy Butler

in the regular season. So you can essentially throw all of them out.
