“Heat”

Get my mind off it…

The “Heat” are in Portlandia tonight, the first game of a three-game West coast mini-trip and so far I like what I see very much. At End 3 it’s the unbeaten T-blazers 81 MIA 94. …Now it’s 81-97, 11:24 4 Q. Blaze led by as many as ten early; “Heat” has scorched ‘em since 69-50. What I like most is what I see in the box score. Bam playing within himself, 9 shots in 23’, Kyle getting that ol’ snap back in his string, 26’, 17 pts on 5/8 (5/7!) and 6 assists. Six Heaters in dub figs, the points and contributions spread widely. If, If, this roster has a compensatory strength for stellar quality it’s goodness quantity. With that lead I don’t at all think that even a patented “Heat” El Foldo Fourth will prevent a dub tonight.
