The Miami Heat simply will not go away. We assumed they’d go away against the Bucks and Giannis would eventually put down the pesky rebellion. That never happened. The series against the Knicks was a coin toss but most assumed the Knicks would put up more of a fight. The “Zombie Heat”, as Bill Simmons called them entering the playoffs, continue to march their way towards another improbable finals run. The brand of basketball they play isn’t aesthetically pleasing but it is effective. They grind you down on defense for 3 and a half quarters and let Jimmy Butler take over in crunch time.
