Beijing time on April 17, 2022, it is very close to the Heat's first game of the playoffs of the season, and they face the Atlanta Hawks who have passed the playoffs in the first round! There have been many voices saying that the Eagles will bring great trouble to the Heat in the first round, and may even complete the Black Eight Miracle, but from the current lineup of the two teams, the difficulty is still very large!
PJ Tucker, who was previously injured in the regular season, has missed three games, and the veteran's experience and defensive intensity in the playoffs are still very good, and if he can't play, the impact on the Heat is still very large. At present, PJ Tucker said in an interview that he plans to play in the first game of the playoffs against the Hawks, which is still very good news for the Heat!
The second is Adebayo, the core interior line that previously triggered the health and safety agreement, and now Adebayor has lifted the health and safety agreement and can play the first game of the first round of the playoffs. Adebayor said in an interview that he didn't have any symptoms during the quarantine and that he had no problem playing in his first game!
The fact that these two players will be able to play is really too important for the Heat, which basically allows the Heat to play in the full main lineup! In the core rotation lineup, Butler, Hiro, Adebayo, Lowry, Oladipo, Duncan Robinson, Strus, Martin, Morris and Tucker will all play, the team lineup advantage is very obvious, facing the Eagles' first game, they should not be lost!
Judging from the current state, although the Eagles have a certain strength, there is really still a certain gap compared with the Heat, and it is very difficult to complete the Black Eight Miracle!
