The "Heat" shot 57.1% and splashed 53.1% from Biscayne Bay.
Tyler Herro led the victors with 29 points, Duncan Robinson was lethal off the bench, 20 pts in 29' on 8/10 (4/6) shooting, Kel'el took care of the glass with 12 in 28', Bam had 18, 7, 7, and 2 in 31', Davion Mitchell led with 8 asts, Alec Burks had 13 in 21' and a game high +12. The spread of contributions shows what positionless ball can be in the hands of its master, Coach Spoelstra.
Spo is a modest man with a Ph.D in hoops. He never claims that he has all the answers or that it's his way or the highway. He tinkers until he gets the machine running as well as it is capable. After Wednesday's comprehensive win over Atl, he commented:
“I’ve mentioned it many times [and he has], who knows what the right decisions are with this team? That’s just the reality. I can’t claim that I’m making the right decisions. But, basically, everybody’s had their opportunities, at some point, wherever we are.
New Miami gets a rare win over a team with a winning record (Indy now 33-25), and the "Heat" rise to 7th in the East, still a daunting 4 full games behind 6th Detroit, creep closer to .500, 28-30, but now a beautiful new dawn appears on the Miami horizon. The tests, and opportunities, keep coming. Manny Hatty comes to Biscayne at sunset Sunday.
There's a new world coming!
