Heat throttle Hornets with 123-91 win in Game 1

The Heat came out swinging and never let up completely throttling the Charlotte Hornets and in doing so setting a playoff record.

In what was one of the best offensive games of this year, the Miami Heat completely throttled the Charlotte Hornets never stepping off the gas and in doing so setting a franchise record for points scored in a playoff game. This is how it went down.

The Heat came out swinging, with Luol Deng hitting a corner three right off the bat. They looked solid on defense as well, limiting Charlotte’s options in the paint and frustrating Cody Zeller.
