And, Done. So proud of the "Heat" tonight, so, so proud. 113-92 FT and Miami played complete basketball: shot 53.2% (50%) while not letting up on D, stifling Borelando to 37.1% and 29.7%. Disney played 13 guys, Miami 12, all but UD. Played some guy I swear was not on the roster previously, "Gabe" "Vincent." Gabe only played a minute but he played. D-Wait played, not 18' or whatever it was against LAC, only 6' tonight (3, 2, 2) but he played.

Every "Heat" starter, who were subbed en masse against D.C. was in + double digits tonight. That is dominance. Duncan Robinson was high with +25 on 21, 5, 1 and 3 TO'S; Meyers Leonard was next at +24 on only 5 points and 8 boards. That bespeaks to defense. Spo started Myers at center tonight; usually that's Bam's nominal position. Jimmy was next at +20, 19, 3, 7, 1, 1, and 0 TO's. BAM HAD A 3W! Is that his first? I think it is. Bam was +16 on 20, 10, 10, 1, and 0 TO's. Tyler brings up the rear of the starters but still with a double digit +12 on 13, 4, 1, 3 blocks (!) and 2 TO's. And expectedly when you get wasted every starting "Magician" was - in the high teens to high 20's (!), from -16 (Fulzt and Vucevic to -18 for former Pitt guy Khem Birch, -21 for Fournier, and an embarrassing balloon, -28 for Gordon. Orlando stunk it out tonight and Miami was as perfect as five human beings can be.
