The Miami Heat have shown the ability to overcome tough situations and win games; the Charlotte Hornets would be wise to pick up that trait.

The teams, with vastly different trends, meet Tuesday night in Charlotte, N.C.

The Heat hold a five-game winning streak following Sunday night's 118-113comeback victory at San Antonio.

"A good step," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "Hopefully, we can build on that."

Spoelstra called it a "character game," and that's probably what the Hornets need to get going in the right direction.
