Hot Hot Hoops

Miami is just not getting the necessary stops needed to really tighten this deficit. Just need a couple in a row. Too much falling for the foul baiting.

With a win tonight, the Heat can move into sixth place in the East. With a loss, the Heat will move back to eighth place in the East.

At 41 years old, and less than 24 hours after finishing off a big game in Houston, LeBron James is flirting with a triple-double in Miami. He hasn’t missed a shot. He really is unbelievable. Hate to see it against the Heat, but enjoy watching him while you can.

The best 2-game FG% stretch in NBA history, before tonight, was Dwight Howard going 22 of 23. LeBron James is currently 20 of 21 (7 of 7 tonight).

Lakers have had an answer for every single Heat mini push here.

Kel’el Ware is up to a 14 & 10 double-double off the bench. Getting 4Q minutes alongside Bam right now.

The Heat cut it to a 6-point Lakers lead to begin the fourth quarter. Have to find a way to slow down LA’s offense if Miami wants to stick around down the stretch

Respect that the Miami Heat have finally embraced tanking by playing both Tyler Herro and Norm Powell together.

Norman Powell and Tyler Herro are a combined 1 of 10 from 3-point range.

What happened to Norman Powell, man?

Lakers are on a 14-1 run.

Luka unstoppable from beyond the arc, LeBron elite playmaking— and just like that, the Lakers have taken control of this game. Miami trails 84-77 midway through the 3rd

This quarter has been Luka + LeBron vs Bam… Heat need some more offense outside of just Bam here

HALFTIME: Heat 65, Lakers 59 Bam leads Miami with 15 PTS, but Luka Doncic leads all scorers with an efficient 21 PTS on 50% shooting Heat shoot 53% in the half to LA’s 49%

Another Bam triple!!

BAM BAM BAM 💥 💪

Pelle Larsson has had several nice moves tonight, while being the main defender on LeBron too

Spoelstra trying a group of Mitchell, Herro, Powell, Larsson & Bam right now Small ball at its finest

Strong start for Davion Mitchell, already up to 9 points on a perfect 4/4 shooting
