“Here come the Heat”

ESPN NBA analyst Tim Legler says the Heat again are a team to watch in the final eight weeks of the season.

“We’re gonna hear from them. They’re gonna win six straight at some point in the second half here,” Legler said on the “All-NBA Podcast.” “Everybody’s gonna pick their ears up and say, ‘Oh, here come the Heat with another improbable run.’”

Yeah, they reasonably could win six straight. My judgment was, and is, that they’ll go 20-7 the remainder and win 51 games.
