In the long tradition of sport as a mirror for human resilience, the Miami Heat — an eighth-seeded team dismissed before the series began — eliminated the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night in overtime, 128-126, at Fiserv Forum. Led by Jimmy Butler's relentless 42-point performance, Miami overcame a double-digit fourth-quarter deficit for the second consecutive game, joining a rare fraternity of underdogs who have rewritten the expected order. It is a reminder that seedings measure the past, not the possible, and that the playoffs have always belonged to those willing to endure.
