Nine Straight in Miami

The "Heat" are "up" to 12th in the conference (out of 15 teams). Their win streak is tied for third-longest in the NBA this season. The team they're tied with at nine is San Antone, second-best in the 30-team league and trailing only Houston, 10-straight, third-best in league, and Golden Pond, 12-straight, #1 in league. So, the "Heat" streak (Streat?) is WAY out of the norm: a shitty team, 22nd in the league, winning nine-straight is definitely not normal. The team is healthier but the credit for this streak must go, not to the players, but to coach Eric Spoelstra.
